Abstract: A file directory tree structure of a selected storage snapshot is dynamically divided into different portions. A plurality of the different file directory tree structure portions are analyzed in parallel to identify any changes of the selected storage snapshot from a previous storage snapshot. To analyze each of the plurality of the different file directory tree structure portions, a processor is further configured to traverse and compare a corresponding file directory tree structure portion of the selected storage snapshot with a corresponding portion of a file directory tree structure of the previous storage snapshot while at least another one of the plurality of the different file directory tree structure portions of the selected storage snapshot is being analyzed in parallel.

Abstract: A method comprising: receiving network traffic data from a network traffic monitoring platform, the network traffic data identifying communication between entities of an enterprise network and storage monitoring data from a server-based SAN monitoring platform, the storage monitoring data identifying communication between a software-only server-based SAN and entities of the enterprise network, parsing the received traffic data and storage monitoring data to identify object data and/or metric data, creating a metric table entry from metric data, creating an object table entry from object data linking metric table entries with object table entries, creating a link table entry from the linking of metric table entries with object table entries, for each link table entry, assigning an object performance threshold, comparing each metric table entries to the assigned object performance threshold, if an alarm trigger condition is satisfied based on the comparison, then triggering an alarm event and outputting an alar

Abstract: A method for tracking resizing and recreation of volumes in a block-based snapshot backup program. In an embodiment, a record ID is associated with a major and minor number assigned to each volume to be backed up. The record ID maintains a unique reference to the bitmap corresponding to a backed up volume in case the minor number is reused by the volume manager driver during a recreate operation. The length of the volume to be maintained is maintained and compared to the length of the to track any resizing of the volume by the volume manager. In the event of any resizing or recreation, the original bitmap can be replaced with an updated bitmap to ensure proper backup of the resized or recreated volumes.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method, article of manufacture, and apparatus for backing up data. In some embodiments, this includes a backup server locating one or more instances of data associated with a list of identifiers, wherein each instance of data comprises one or more target volumes and associated journal volume; the enablement of replication; and replication.
