Summary:Techniques for determining replication modes may include: issuing, while unsolicited data transfer mode is enabled for a first link, first write operations over the first link; issuing, while unsolicited data transfer mode is disabled for the first link, second write operations over the first link; determining a first performance metric for the first link in accordance with the first write operations; determining a second performance metric for the first link in accordance with the second write operations; and determining, in accordance with the first and second performance metrics whether to enable or disable unsolicited data transfer mode for the first link for a first time period. The first and second performance metrics may be response times. Unsolicited data transfer mode, when enabled, allows write data payload to be sent to a target without receiving an acknowledgement regarding receipt of a write command block for the write operation from the target.
