Abstract: Systems and methods for performing replication operations on a continuous data protection system. Exemplary systems include a continuous data protection system configured to save a series of transactions of a production application, the continuous data protection system configured to allow a point in time view of the series of transactions, a replication application communicating with the continuous data protection system, the replication application configured to initiate generation of at least one pseudosnapshot of the series of transactions saved on the continuous data protection system and initiate surfacing of a copy of at least a portion of the series of transactions that were saved before the generation of the at least one pseudosnapshot, and a remote server communicating with the replication application, the remote server configured to send replication instructions to the replication application.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing replication operations on a continuous data protection system. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying at least a portion of the series of transactions on the continuous data protection system to be included in the pseudosnapshot, identifying an initial time at which the pseudosnapshot begins, identifying a final time at which the pseudosnapshot ends, identifying a last transaction before the final time at which the pseudosnapshot ends, and creating an event marker identifying a particular point in time that the last transaction was saved on the continuous data protection system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing scheduled backups and recovery of data generated by one or more production applications operating on a MAGIC platform located on two or more host computers in a coherency group. The data for a coherency group is stored in a primary storage in the form of one or more production volumes and ISB protocol is used to create one or more clone volumes. Exemplary methods for backing up one or more clone volumes for a coherency group to a backup storage include copying the one or more clone volumes to a backup storage or creating a snapshot of the one or more clone volumes. The ISB functions of splitting and/or reconnecting the one or more production volumes and one or more clone volumes occur at substantially the same time for all the two or more host computers in the coherency group.

Abstract: A method and system for performing multiple concurrent recovery operations using a single instance of a user interface. One exemplary method includes initiating a first recovery operation via a single user interface. The first recovery operation includes copying a first data object from a first backup storage location to a first recovery storage location. The exemplary method further includes initiating a second recovery operation via the single user interface without requiring a user to open a separate instance of the user interface. Similarly, the second recovery operation includes copying a second data object from a second backup storage location to a second recovery storage location. At least a portion of the second recovery operation occurs concurrently with at least a portion of the first recovery operation.

Abstract: A method and system for restoring data on a production server by recovering individual data objects from a recovery storage group to a database residing on the production server. In one example method, a recovery interface accesses a recovery storage group containing a recovered database. The recovered database has been recovered from a backup storage location and contains a copy of a database residing on the production server. The method then identifies each data object residing in the recovery storage group and displays each of the data objects on a graphical user interface configured to allow a user to select and individual data objects for recovery from the recovered database. The selected data objects are restored to the appropriate location on the production server.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing replication operations on a continuous data protection system. Exemplary methods include identifying a series of transactions in a continuous data protection system, identifying an event marker indicating a point in time in the series of transactions, copying at least a portion of the series of transactions up until the point in time of the event marker from the continuous data protection system, and presenting the copy of at least a portion of the series of transactions such that the surfaced copy can be read in a subsequent replication operation.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing scheduled backups and recovery of data generated by a production application operating on a MAGIC platform located on a host computer. The data is stored in a primary storage in the form of a production volume and ISB protocol is used to create a clone volume. Exemplary methods for backing up a clone volume to a backup storage include receiving a backup command from a backup server, sending a split command to a host computer to initiate splitting of a production volume and a clone volume using ISB protocol, initiating creation of a snapshot from the clone volume, and initiating storing of the snapshot in the primary storage.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing replication operations on a continuous data protection system. Exemplary methods include identifying a pseudosnapshot relating to a point in time in a series of transactions stored on a continuous data protection system, surfacing a copy of at least a portion of the series of transactions saved before the point in time to which the pseudosnapshot relates, and sending the surfaced copy to (1) a remote computer such that the surfaced copy can be read to perform analysis on the surfaced copy, (2) a remote server to be stored on a remote storage device, or (3) a mirror storage device to store a first mirrored copy.
