  • Patent number: 11474912
    Abstract: Methods and systems for backing up and restoring files that have multiple hard links using master file references and index node-based mappings are described. In some cases, file fetching and restoration may be performed by a storage appliance using master file references in which a master file is identified for each multi-link file that is backed-up on the storage appliance and then referenced by one or more hard links to the multi-link file. In other cases, file fetching and restoration may be performed by a storage appliance using index node-based mappings for multi-link files that provide mappings between index node identifiers (e.g., inode numbers) for the multi-link files on a primary system and hard link paths for storing the file contents of the multi-link files on a storage appliance used for backing up the primary system.

  • Patent number: 11442817
    Abstract: Normal virtual machine operation is observed to automatically determine patterns of resource utilization. Backup activities are then scheduled, taking into account these utilization patterns. For example, if a normally scheduled backup would occur during a busy period, it may be rescheduled to a less busy period. As another example, backups made by made opportunistically during less busy periods even if not required by the normal backup schedule, in order to alleviate backup demands during more busy periods.

  • Patent number: 11416344
    Abstract: Described herein is a system that restores a database by processing a portion of the database. The system restores the database to a previous state at a particular time by reverting data entries that have changed since the time to their initial values before the change. Data entries that have changed after the restore time are identified. For the data entries that have changed after the restore time, their initial values before the change are determined from various sources. The system determines a database version that is created most recently before the restore time. The system additionally identifies changes to the database between the restore time and when the database version is created. The initial values can be determined from either the database version or the changes made to the database between the restore time and when the database version is created.
