Summary:A method of data loss prevention during transitions from a replication source, the method including: initiating a transition from using a first data repository as a source for data replication to using a second data repository as the source for data replication; prior to completing the transition and responsive to determining that one or more storage operations directed to the first data repository have not been replicated to the second data repository, delaying transition of the second data repository as the source for data replication; and responsive to completing the transition, promoting the second data repository as the source for data replication such that all storage operations received after completing the transition are directed to the second data repository.
