摘要： Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with selective tag-based file backup and recovery are described. One example method includes selectively tagging a file for inclusion in a snapshot-based backup image by associating a tag with the file. The associating may include encoding file metadata with a tag. The method may include selectively adding a file to the backup image upon determining that the file has experienced a write event and that the file is associated with a tag. The method may also include receiving a request to provide a recovery file from the backup image and selectively providing the recovery file upon determining that the recovery file is associated with a recovery tag specified in the request.

摘要： A method and apparatus for associating administrative policies with user-definable groups of files is provided. The groups of files are defined by assigning tags to files or directories. Tags are a part of metadata stored by an operating system for the files and directories. Tags associated with files or directories remain as files or directories are moved or copied in the file system. Files created inside a directory that contains certain tags inherit tags of the parent directory. Command line and graphical interfaces for tag management are provided. The interfaces let users assign tags to files or directories, remove tags assigned to files or directories, or list tags already assigned to files or directories. The interfaces also let users associate services and administrative policies with tags.
