example

[0177] Consider a scenario where a remote agent (600) provides data protection services to a production host (610) as in Figure 6.1 the situation described in. A production host (610) hosts a first virtual machine (612). A first virtual machine (612) hosts an email application that generates email application data (614).

[0178] To provide data protection services to the production host (610), the remote agent (600) instantiates a discovery agent (not shown) and a first virtual machine (612). Once instantiated, the discovery agent generates a virtual machine asset map for the first virtual machine (612). An asset map (not shown) indicates assets for email application data (614). Once generated, the discovery agent sends the virtual machine asset map to the remote agent (600).

[0179] In response to receiving the virtual machine asset mapping, the remote agent (600) updates an asset catalog (not shown) with the virtual machine asset mapping. After updating the asset map...

Abstract

A remote agent for providing data protection services includes persistent storage and a backup manager. The persistent storage stores lifecycle policies. The backup manager updates an asset catalog using an asset map associated with a virtual machine; generates a lifecycle policy of the lifecycle policies using the asset catalog; and generates a backup for the virtual machine using the lifecycle policy. The lifecycle policy prioritizes generating the backup for the virtual machine over generating a second backup for a second virtual machine.

Description

Background technique [0001] A computing device may generate data during its operation. For example, an application program hosted by a computing device may generate data that is used by the application program to perform its functions. Such data may be stored in persistent storage of the computing device. Persistent storage failures can result in data loss. [0002] Different types of data may be more important than other types of data. For example, from a user's perspective, losing an unimportant image file is less of a disadvantage than losing an electronic communication. Determining whether one piece of data is more important than another can depend on many factors. Contents of the invention [0003] In one aspect, a remote agent for providing data protection services according to one or more embodiments of the invention includes a persistent storage device and a backup manager. Persistent storage stores the lifecycle policy. The backup manager updates the asset cat...
