The present invention discloses a snapshot-based rapid synthetic
backup and
recovery method, the
backup method comprising the following steps: step S1, creating a storage volume in a CDM storage
machine; step S2, establishing a synthetic
backup task, determining the storage volume and the target path of the synthetic backup, and mounting the storage volume to the target path, performing a full backup of data during the first backup, and after mounting the storage volume to the target path, backing up the data to be backed up of the working
machine to the target path, and taking a snapshot of the storage volume after the backup is completed, recording the snapshot time to a
list of
recovery time points; step S3, performing an
incremental backup of data during the second and subsequent backup cycles, mounting the storage volume to the target path, writing incremental or differential data to the target path, and taking a snapshot of the storage volume after the
incremental backup is completed, and recording the snapshot time to a
list of
recovery time points.
