Provided are techniques for storing local versions of a data set. A first number that indicates how many local versions of the data set are to be stored in local storage given an amount of available local storage is received. It is determined whether a second number that indicates a total number of local versions of the data set that the local storage is capable of storing exceeds the first number. In response to determining that the second number exceeds the first number, the amount of local storage that is capable of storing the first number of local versions of the data set is used.

A first set of backup data is stored in a first computational device and a second set of backup data is stored in a second computational device. Metadata corresponding to the first set of backup data is maintained in the second computational device. The first set of backup data is reconciled with the second set of backup data based on the metadata.

A backup method that uses snapshot delta views to create backups of a data collection is provided. The method comprises taking a first snapshot of the data collection, in response to determining that a previous snapshot used to create a backup does not exist; creating a backup of the data collection using the first snapshot, in response to determining that the previous snapshot does not exist; recording that the first snapshot was used as a source for the creation of a backup; and taking a second snapshot of the data collection, in response to determining that the previous snapshot that was used as a source for a backup does exist.

摘要:
Provided are a system, method, and program for grouping backup objects stored in backup storage. A backup group is created and a plurality of backup objects are added as members of the backup group in separate backup transactions. The backup objects added to the backup group are stored to backup storage.

Systems, methods, and computer products for separating file data streams for improved progressive incremental processing are provided. The method comprises identifying data in a file, prior to transmission of the data in a data stream to a second system, such that the second system can distinguish first data from second data in the file. The method further comprises processing the first and second data to determine whether the first or second data has changed, and transmitting the first data to the second system in response to determining the first data has changed, so that the first data is stored in a data storage medium in association with third and fourth data previously stored without replacing the third data and fourth data, wherein the third and fourth data comprise older versions of the first and second data, respectively.
摘要:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for a virtual machine backup. A name module establishes an administrative machine name for a virtual machine. A space module associates at least one administrative name space with the administrative machine name. A backup module backs up files belonging to the virtual machine using a backup proxy, wherein the files are segregated under the administrative machine name and are accessible using only a secure key belonging to the virtual machine and without using a backup proxy secure key. A mask module masks out pathname components for each backup file pathname so that the backup file pathname is equivalent to a virtual machine file pathname.
摘要:
Provided is a method for performing scheduled backups of a backup node associated with a plurality of agent nodes. Backup data sets on at least one machine in a network are associated with a backup node and a plurality of agent nodes in the network are associated with the backup node. The agent nodes are associated with machines in the network capable of backing up the backup data sets associated with the backup node. A schedule indicating a scheduled backup to backup scheduled data sets associated with the backup node is processed. At least one of the agent nodes is contacted to request the at least one agent node to perform the scheduled backup and backup the scheduled data sets, wherein the at least one contacted agent node performs the scheduled backup to backup the scheduled backup sets.
