Publication number: 20220043836Abstract: An improved information management system is described herein that can use artificial intelligence to classify data files (e.g., emails, documents, audio files, video files, etc.) and/or surface in a user interface the classification assigned to the data files. For example, a lightweight training or a heavyweight training can be employed to train classifiers to classify the data files. Use of artificial intelligence to classify data files may reduce the amount of computing resources that the information management system allocates to the data file review process because an auditor may be able to quickly identify those data files that meet the desired criteria using the classification and only request access to those data files. Thus, the information management system may be able to allocate more computing resources to normal or routine tasks, ensuring that such tasks are completed and/or completed in an appropriate amount of time.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2020Publication date: February 10, 2022Inventors: Mrityunjay UPADHYAY, Pavan Kumar Reddy BEDADALA, Marcelo dos Reis MANSANO

Patent number: 11237935Abstract: Described herein are techniques for better understanding problems arising in an illustrative information management system, such as a data storage management system, and for issuing appropriate alerts and reporting to data management professionals. The illustrative embodiments include a number of features that detect and raise awareness of anomalies in system operations. Categories of interest include events and job anomalies, such as long-running jobs and job success/failure rates. Anomalies are characterized by frequency anomalies and/or by occurrence counts. Utilization is also of interest for certain key system resources, such as deduplication databases, CPU and memory at the storage manager, etc., without limitation. Predicting low utilization periods for these and other key resources is useful for scheduling maintenance activities without interfering with ordinary data protection jobs.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2019Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: Commvault Systems, Inc.Inventors: Mrityunjay Upadhyay, Anand Vibhor, Bhavyan Bharatkumar Mehta, Rajiv Kottomtharayil

Publication number: 20210390495Abstract: A system may measure one or more metrics relating to the performance of a job for a set of occurrences of the job with respect to a data set. The measurements may be used to predict a completion time for a subsequent job or phase of the job on the data set. This prediction may be used to present a more accurate indication of a job completion status on the data set. The process may be repeated or performed separately for each client or set of data to provide an individualized progress meter or indicator. Thus, in some cases, variances in the data or computing systems may be reflected in the displayed progress of the job providing for a more accurate indication of job progress.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2020Publication date: December 16, 2021Inventors: Mrityunjay UPADHYAY, Rajiv KOTTOMTHARAYIL, Anand VIBHOR, Bhavyan Bharatkumar MEHTA

Patent number: 11200110Abstract: An illustrative data storage management system comprises “awareness logic” that executes on computing devices hosting storage management components such as storage manager, data agent, media agent, and/or other storage management applications. The illustrative awareness logic operates within each of these illustrative components, e.g., as a thread within processes of the storage management component, such as storage management core process, file identifier process, log monitoring process, etc. The awareness logic monitors the targeted process over time and triggers remedial action when criteria are met. Certain vital statistics of each process are collected periodically and analyzed by the illustrative awareness logic, such as CPU usage, memory usage, and handle counts. Criteria for corrective action include rising trends based on local minima data points for one or more vital statistics of the process. Other criteria include exceeding a threshold based on a logarithm function of the collected data points.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2020Date of Patent: December 14, 2021Assignee: Commvault Systems, Inc.Inventor: Mrityunjay Upadhyay

Publication number: 20210374021Abstract: Described herein are techniques for automating media agent state management. For example, if a media agent is running poorly, then the media agent can be disabled and an alternate media agent can perform secondary copy job operations in place of the poorly running media agent. To determine whether a media agent is running poorly, a storage manager can determine whether the media agent has an anomalous number of failed jobs, pending jobs, and/or long running jobs and/or can determine whether the amount of resources used by the media agent is high or is increasing constantly, at a constant rate, or at a near constant rate.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2020Publication date: December 2, 2021Inventors: Shree Nandhini Santhakumar, Mrityunjay Upadhyay

Publication number: 20210344755Abstract: A region-based distributed information management system is described herein in which some or all of the operations typically performed by a centralized storage manager can be distributed to storage managers located in the various geographic regions. These regional storage managers can manage components of the information management system located in their respective geographic region, and communicate with the centralized storage manager (also referred to herein as a “master storage manager”) for synchronization purposes and/or to hand off operations that cannot be performed by the regional storage manager.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2021Publication date: November 4, 2021Inventors: Bhavyan Bharatkumar MEHTA, Anand VIBHOR, Suraj BHARECH, Mrityunjay UPADHYAY

Publication number: 20210271758Abstract: This application relates to ransomware detection and data pruning management. Ransomware typically involves an I/O heavy process of encrypting data files and/or deleting or renaming the original files. Thus, ransomware attacks may be detected by analyzing the I/O activity in a given file system. In some embodiments, a software module running on a client machine manages copying, archiving, migrating, and/or replicating of primary data and restoring and/or pruning secondary data (e.g., backup copies of the primary data). When a potential ransomware attack is detected, the software module is immediately stopped so that the software module does not prune any data that may need to be restored. Upon receiving user input that indicates that the client machine is not under a ransomware attack, the software module is allowed to resume its operations, including pruning of the secondary data.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2021Publication date: September 2, 2021Inventors: PurnaChandra Sekhar BEDHAPUDI, Sri Karthik BHAGI, Deepak Raghunath ATTARDE, Arun Prasad AMARENDRAN, Amit Bhaskar AUSARKAR, Mrityunjay UPADHYAY

Publication number: 20210191629Abstract: An illustrative expandable data storage management system includes rules for assigning data protection operations to suitable subtending storage service cells. Each cell is specially configured to protect certain data types and/or to provide certain storage resources for backup data. The system controls customer account access, authentication, service allocation, data security, and sharing of information between a centralized “hub manager” and the storage service cells that perform storage operations, including data backup, data recovery, and data lifecycle management. The system maintains a many-to-many relationship between distinct customers and storage service cells so that any storage service cell may be responsible for protecting any number of data sources of any number of distinct customers, and responsibility for protecting any given customer's data sources may be distributed among any number of storage service cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2020Publication date: June 24, 2021Inventors: Anand Vibhor, Mrityunjay Upadhyay, Bhavyan Bharatkumar Mehta, Suraj Bharech
