Filed:

May 6, 2020

Appl. No.:

15/929497

Inventors:

- ARMONK NY, US
Christopher C. Bode - Cary NC, US
Marci Devoarh Formato - Clintondale NY, US
Andrew S. Kronstadt - Pensacola FL, US

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

Abstract:

A method, system, and program product for controlling power associated with connectivity between devices is provided. The method includes scheduling a copy function associated with copying data from a production hardware device to a secure hardware device at a specified time period. A first hardware connection between the production hardware device and a production network associated with the production hardware device is disabled during the specified time period and a second hardware connection between the production hardware device and the secure hardware device is enabled. A subsequent copy function is enabled for copying the data from the production hardware device to the secure hardware device. The second hardware connection between the production hardware device and the secure hardware device is disabled after the copy function has completed. In response, the first hardware connection between the production hardware device and the production network is enabled.

International Classification:

G06F 11/14
G06F 9/455

Abstract:

A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for backing up data from a virtual machine. A backup service is presented by a computer system as a storage system to the virtual machine, wherein the storage system is located outside of the virtual machine. A hypervisor for the virtual machine is instructed by the computer system to present the storage system as a virtualized storage system to the virtual machine. Data is received by the computer system from the hypervisor in which the data is stored on the virtualized storage system by a backup client performing a backup operation in the virtual machine.

International Classification:

G06F 11/14
G06F 7/08
G06N 7/00

Abstract:

Pre-fetching and staging restore data is provided. A set of data corresponding to a client device is collected from each respective data source in a plurality of data sources. A score is determined for each set of data collected. A probability of receiving a request to restore backup data on the client device is predicted based on analysis of the set of data from each respective data source and the score for each set of data. It is determined whether the predicted probability of receiving a request to restore the backup data on the client device is greater than a threshold. In response to determining that the predicted probability of receiving a request to restore the backup data on the client device is greater than the threshold, the backup data of the client device is preemptively moved to a fastest data storage tier in a multi-tiered backup data storage system.

Inventors:

- Armonk NY, US
Christopher C. Bode - Cary NC, US

International Classification:

G06F 12/0862
H04L 29/08
G06F 11/14

Abstract:

Provided are techniques for a headless resilient backup and restore software ecosystem. At a first backup server of a plurality of backup servers, a connection request is received. At the first backup server, a second backup server is identified by: determining a backup server score for each of the plurality of backup servers based on identification factors comprising historical client latency, scheduled backup server workload, and whether the metadata is already cached on any of the plurality of backup servers and identifying the second backup server as having a lowest backup server score. The identification of the second backup server is returned.
