  • Disaster recovery validation
    Patent number: 9454439
    Abstract: A method and system for the backup and recovery of a converged infrastructure computer system are provided with the ability to determine if the backup meets requirements of a disaster recovery plan. The method and system provide backup and recovery of the data and applications including backup and recovery of the configuration and mapping information of the converged infrastructure computer system. The backups are periodically tested to determine if they meet predetermined metrics that are specified in the disaster recovery plan.

  • Automated testing of physical servers using a virtual machine
    Patent number: 9448834
    Abstract: An illustrative method for validating integrity of a source server backup includes receiving, at a recovery server, data indicating a state of a data storage unit associated with a source server, creating a virtual hard drive image from the received data, and storing, in memory of the recovery server, the created virtual hard drive image. The method also includes booting a virtual machine using the stored hard drive image and mounting a second drive image to the virtual machine including tools facilitating access to an operating system running on the virtual machine by an application running on the recovery server. The tools are prevented from being installed in an operating system running on the source server.
