AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing virtual machine backup solutions suffer from problems such as excessive reliance on virtualization vendors, large workload for installing agents, numerous security risks, inability to recognize LVM configurations, limitations on concurrency and speed, and poor compatibility. In particular, fine-grained recovery cannot be achieved in agentless backup solutions based on VADP.

Method used

Deploy backup agent virtual machines on the vSAN hyperconverged virtualization platform, create disk snapshots and add them to the backup agent virtual machines, utilize the storage network for data transmission, achieve fine-grained recovery, break through vendor concurrency and rate limits, and support backup and recovery for domestic platforms.

Benefits of technology

It improves backup and recovery speed, reduces management network load, supports backup and recovery of domestic platforms, and realizes the identification and fine-grained recovery of LVM composition information, avoiding the limitations of traditional solutions.

Abstract

The application discloses a virtual machine backup and recovery method based on a vSAN super-converged virtualization platform, and the backup method comprises the following steps: obtaining an original virtual machine to be backed up and disk information of the original virtual machine on the vSAN super-converged virtualization platform, and calling a storage interface to create a disk snapshot; adding a snapshot disk corresponding to the disk snapshot to a backup agent virtual machine, and recording information of the snapshot disk to the backup agent virtual machine; and backing up the snapshot disk to a backup server, generating a backup point and saving. The method can break through the limitation of the number of concurrent and speed limitation of a manufacturer during backup recovery, and effectively improves the backup recovery rate.
