Abstract: A storage manager that interoperates with a file manager application that integrates with virtualization substantially enables end-user control and storage management of virtual machines (VMs). The storage manager may manage information management operations relative to virtual machines based on and/or in response to messages and/or instructions received from the file manager application. The storage manager may further report results to the file manager application for presentation to the user. The file manager application, which may operate as a plug-in for a legacy file manager executing on a user's client computing device, may comprise: displaying the VMs associated with the user, including their respective properties; enabling viewing/browsing of information about storage management operations for a VM such as backups and/or archiving, including files associated with the VM and searching and filtering criteria; control features that enable the user to control existing VMs, such as shut down, restart/activate/power-on, suspend, and/or re-configure, and also perform storage management of a VM and/or its associated files, such as create snapshot, back up, archive, restore VM from secondary storage, restore and overwrite VM, restore file(s)/folder(s) to user's client computing device, restore file(s)/folder(s) to a production VM in primary storage, etc.; control features that enable the user to provision additional VMs, such as create a new VM, create a clone VM, configure a VM, etc.

Abstract translation: 与与虚拟化集成的文件管理器应用程序进行互操作的存储管理器极大地实现了虚拟机（VM）的最终用户控制和存储管理。 存储管理器可以基于和/或响应于从文件管理器应用接收到的消息和/或指令来管理相对于虚拟机的信息管理操作。 存储管理器可以进一步向文件管理器应用报告结果以呈现给用户。 可以作为在用户的客户端计算设备上执行的遗留文件管理器的插件操作的文件管理器应用可以包括：显示与用户相关联的VM，包括它们各自的属性; 允许查看/浏览关于VM的存储管理操作的信息，例如备份和/或归档，包括与VM关联的文件以及搜索和过滤标准; 控制功能，使用户能够控制现有的虚拟机，例如关闭，重新启动/激活/开机，挂起和/或重新配置，并执行虚拟机和/或其相关文件的存储管理，例如 创建快照，备份，归档，从辅助存储还原虚拟机，还原和覆盖VM，将文件/文件夹还原到用户的客户端计算设备，将文件/文件夹还原到生产VM 主存储等; 控制功能，使用户能够配置其他VM，如创建新VM，创建克隆VM，配置VM等。
