Abstract: A method for performing conditional copying of a data object in a data environment to prevent a copying operation failure includes receiving a request to copy the data object to a destination source, the request including an identification of a first source data object, a second source data object and indication of an order of preference between the first data object and the second data object for copying the data object; determining based on the order that data object should be copied from the first source data object; examining a first source indicator to determine if the first source data object is available for copying; based on the determination, copying the data object from the first source data object to the destination source, when the first source data object is available and copying the copying the data object from the second source data object to the destination source, when the first source data object is not available; and creating an indication of successful copying of the data object to the des

Abstract: A method for providing automatic restatement of a data environment includes receiving a request for restatement of a first dataset, accessing dependency data that describes a set of dependencies between the first dataset and one or more other datasets in the computer data environment, examining the dependency data to automatically identify one or more second dataset from among the one or more other datasets, the second datasets being datasets from which the first dataset depends, examining a first timing data related to the restatement of the first dataset and a second timing data related to the restatement of the identified second datasets to identify one or more third datasets from among the second datasets that require restatement as a result of the restatement of the first dataset, generating a restatement plan based on the identified third datasets, and initiating automatic execution of the restatement plan.
