    Abstract: An illustrative efficient failover process and system in virtualized environment to reduce costs and resources associated with maintaining live stand-by failover scheduling and maintenance system is described herein. The illustrative embodiment uses incremental backup data to maintain a failover or passive virtualized computing platforms comprising of one or more virtual machines that are configured to and ready to be scaled up and initiated to take over the tasks and operations of a lost storage manager. Each virtualized failover or passive node is initially configured to use minimal computing resources to maintain a live backup of the active storage manager. During a failover, a passive virtual node will initiate the failover process. In an embodiment, the failover process comprises restoring a secondary copy of the lost storage manager, initiating a scale up process to increase computing resources, and continuing scheduled tasks and operations of the lost storage manager.

    Abstract: As the volume of data under management expands rapidly, so do the costs associated with storing and that data on secondary storage devices. The illustrative approach provides an improvement to the information management system by delaying certain tasks that meet a set of criteria until a specified threshold is met. The system receives a request to be performed on a set of data stored on secondary devices. Power management module determines whether the task satisfies a set of criteria for delayed execution, queues the task, and when a specified threshold of the queued tasks is met powers up the necessary components to execute the tasks.
