Appeal No. 2003-1603 Application No. 09/376,832 The portion referenced by appellants does suggest that write updates cannot be made to the source volume. However, as pointed out by the examiner, the claim language merely requires that either read or write be able to occur. Appellants have not shown why read requests cannot be made to any volume. Accordingly, we will sustain the obviousness rejection of claims 6 through 8. CONCLUSION The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 6 through 8 under 35 U.S.C. ' 103 is affirmed. 4Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
