  • Patent number: 10936429
    Abstract: A method for performing backup operations includes, while performing a backup operation for a virtual machine (VM), detecting a network disruption between a host and a backup storage system, wherein the VM is executing on the host, and, in response to the detection, storing a portion of snapshot of the VM using a helper VM executing on a second host.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20200133801
    Abstract: A production host that hosts virtual machines includes a physical disk and a backup agent. The physical disk is utilized by a virtual machine of the virtual machines. The backup agent obtains a backup generation request; makes a first determination that the backup generation request impacts the physical disk; in response to the first determination: generates a mirror virtual disk for the physical disk; generates a backup of the mirror virtual disk as a backup of the physical disk; and stores the backup of the mirror virtual disk in backup storage.

  • Publication number: 20200026428
    Abstract: A method and system for implementing smart auto-backups of virtual machines using a virtual proxy. Specifically, the method and system disclosed herein overcome the potential for data loss when failure events transpire between schedule system-initiated backup operations. Data loss, more specifically, may be averted through the triggering of the smart auto-backups during the period of time elapsed between successive scheduled system-initiated backup operations.
