    Abstract: Example methods and systems to perform a distributed backup operation or a distributed restoration operation in a virtualized computing environment including a plurality of components and a plurality of policies are disclosed. One method may include identifying a component or a policy of the plurality of components or policies in response to receiving a first task associated with the distributed backup operation or the distributed restoration operation. In response to the first task associated with the distributed backup operation, the method include generating a backup file having a configuration of the component, but not any configuration of other components of the plurality of components, or a configuration of the policy, but not any configuration of other policies of the plurality of policies; and storing the backup file on a remote server.

    Abstract: Example methods and systems to perform distributed upgrade of a component in a virtualized computing environment are disclosed. One method may include processing an upgrade bundle and querying a status file saved on the component to obtain an upgrade progress of the component. In response to a first task identifier indicating a completion of a first task associated with a first upgrade step, the method may include performing a second task and recording a second task identifier of the second task to indicate the completion or failure of the second task in the status file. In response to the first task identifier indicating a failure of the first task, the method may include performing the first task and updating the first task identifier to indicate the completion or failure of the first task in the status file.
