Abstract: Each data stream in a backup job is individually tracked by data agent(s) and media agent(s) in its path, generating performance data packets in-process and merging them into the processed data stream. The data stream thus incrementally accumulates performance data packets from any number of successive backup processes. The in-process tracking also captures hierarchical relationships among backup processes and in-process subtending tasks, so that the resulting performance report can depict parent and child operations. The hierarchical relationships are embedded into the performance data packets and may be analyzed by parsing the data stream. The media agent transfers the data packets belonging to the secondary copy to secondary storage. The media agent analyzes the performance data packets in the data stream and generates a performance report, which covers the data stream from source to destination, based on the accumulated information carried by the performance data packets.

Abstract: Local management of data stream throttling in data movement operations, such as secondary-copy operations in a storage management system, is disclosed. A local throttling manager may interoperate with co-resident data agents and/or a media agent executing on any given local computing device, whether a client computing device or a secondary storage computing device. The local throttling manager may allocate and manage the available bandwidth for various jobs and their constituent data streams—across the data agents and/or media agent. Bandwidth is allocated and re-allocated to data streams used by ongoing jobs, in response to new jobs starting and old jobs completing, without having to pause and restart ongoing jobs to accommodate bandwidth adjustments. The illustrative embodiment also provides local users with a measure of control over data streams—to suspend, pause, and/or resume them—independently from the centralized storage manager that manages the overall storage system.

Abstract: Intelligent data throttling in data movement operations, such as secondary-copy operations in a storage management system. A local throttling manager may intelligently interoperate with co-resident data agents and/or a media agent executing on any given local computing device, whether a client computing device or a secondary storage computing device. The local throttling manager may allocate and manage the available bandwidth for various jobs and their constituent data streams—across the data agents and/or media agent. Effective bandwidth for the secondary-copy operation may be adjusted based on available bandwidth from the computing device due to increased demand for the bandwidth from other operations.
