Abstract: Live mounting a virtual machine (VM) causes the VM to run off a backup copy or snapshot previously taken of a “live” production VM. The live-mounted VM is generally intended for temporary use such as to validate the integrity and contents of the backup copy for disaster recovery validation, or to access some contents of the backup copy from the live-mounted VM without restoring all backed up files. These uses contemplate that changes occurring during live mount are not preserved after the live-mounted VM expires or is taken down. Thus, live mounting a VM is not a restore operation and usually does not involve access to every block of data in the backup copy. However, live mounting provides live VM service in the cloud sooner than waiting for all of the backup copy/snapshot to be restored.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure enable data protection operations including differential and incremental backups by performing changed-block tracking in network or cloud computing systems with architectures that do not natively support changed-block tracking or do not expose changed-block tracking functionality to an information management system. In certain aspects, an identity of changed blocks may be obtained by using a hypervisor configured to interface with the cloud computing architecture. The identified changed blocks may be used to generate a map of the changed blocks. The maps of the changed blocks can be used by a virtual server agent to extract the changed blocks from a copy of a virtual machine disk and backed up to perform a differential or incremental backup.

Abstract: Data protection resources are automatically scaled to the needs of data source(s) in an application orchestrator computing environment, such as a cluster in a Kubernetes deployment. The approach is adaptable to data sources in production clusters or application suites that are not application orchestrator deployments, such as a cloud-based database-as-a-service (DBaaS). A data storage management system protects cluster-based data with an elastic number of data protection resources (e.g., data agents, media agents), which are deployed on demand. The number of data protection resources deployed for a particular job are appropriate to the workload(s) at present and depend on a variety of scaling factors. In some embodiments, data protection resources are deployed within the same cluster as the data sources. In other embodiments, a separate infrastructure cluster provides the data protection resources on demand, and connects to any number and types of data sources, whether cloud-based or otherwise, without limitation.

Abstract: Live recovery generates a new “recovery VM” that operates as an ongoing “live” production platform. A previously created non-cloud-native backup copy is the data source for the recovery VM. Live recovery restores data blocks from the backup copy on backup media directly to cloud-based virtual disk(s) assigned to the recovery VM. As a result, the cloud-based recovery VM can become fully operational in the cloud computing environment on a going-forward basis. The advantage of live recovery over a traditional restore is that live recovery provides a cloud-based VM that begins operating well before the backup copy is fully restored. This is accomplished by temporarily mounting a “temp-mounted VM” in the cloud while the backup copy is methodically restored in the background. VM reads and writes begin issuing from the temp-mounted VM and writes are retained on completion. Downtime is minimized when switching from the temp-mounted VM to the recovery VM.

Abstract: According to certain aspects, a method of creating customized bootable images for client computing devices in an information management system can include: creating a backup copy of each of a plurality of client computing devices, including a first client computing device; subsequent to receiving a request to restore the first client computing device to the state at a first time, creating a customized bootable image that is configured to directly restore the first client computing device to the state at the first time, wherein the customized bootable image includes system state specific to the first client computing device at the first time and one or more drivers associated with hardware existing at time of restore on a computing device to be rebooted; and rebooting the computing device to the state of the first client computing device at the first time from the customized bootable image.

Abstract: A method and system for communicating with IoT devices to gather information related to device operation or performance is disclosed. The system makes a copy of at least a portion of the device's non-volatile memory and/or receives IoT device data (e.g., sensor data and/or log files etc.) from an IoT device. The system determines which log files and/or sensor data, for example, the IoT device created. After gathering this information, the system stores the information, or may send it to a storage destination for further analysis. The information may also be placed into secondary storage to comply with regulatory, insurance, or legal purposes.

Abstract: A data storage management system incorporates image recognition and classification features. The illustrative system generates thumbnail images to represent images detected in secondary copies. Subsequent image recognition and classification operations are based on the thumbnail images without need to access the secondary copies from which the thumbnails were derived. The system indexes thumbnail images and respective relationships to each other and to the source secondary copies. Metadata from the source secondary copies is extracted and preserved with the thumbnails. Thumbnail images, metadata, and related index data (collectively “thumbnail data”) are stored locally in an illustrative content index server, or in an enhanced storage manager, thus improving performance without interfering with ongoing storage management operations. Features are disclosed for searching within the system and performing storage management operations based on image criteria. Access to/from other systems is also possible, e.g., for importing images and/or thumbnails.

Abstract: This application describes a process where a system receives a cloning request to replicate the functionality of a primary computing device onto a virtual machine. Initially, the system generates or identifies a non-production, point-in-time copy of the primary device's data and metadata. Utilizing this copy, it assesses the primary device's current configuration and resource usage metrics. Subsequently, it identifies an appropriate hosting destination for the virtual machine, equipped with necessary hardware processors. The process further involves defining an optimal configuration for the virtual machine, which may be distinct from the original device, based on various parameters. The virtual machine is then provisioned at the chosen location according to this tailored configuration. The system ensures the virtual machine has access to the original device's data and metadata through specially provisioned virtual disks. Additionally, it implements specific information management policies on the virtual disks' data and metadata to maintain integrity and security.
