Publication number: 20230236860Abstract: A lightweight, workload-agnostic application management agent (AMA) automatically upgrading application agents on a virtual machine (VM). The AMA is installed in the VM as part of a Gold image installation. The AMA detects a workload-type of the VM and sends the workload information to an application manager. The AMA continuously monitors the VM for any change in workload type, and any change causes the AMA to install a respective workload-specific agent (WSA) for the new workload in the VM. The AMA accesses the new WSA from the application manager though a push or pull operation. Applications are thus automatically upgraded through VM resident agents. The user needs only to update policies and load updated software to the application manager without manually upgrading the WSA agents themselves.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2022Publication date: July 27, 2023Inventors: Yasemin Ugur-Ozekinci, Mark Malamut, Jennifer Minarik, Brian E.

Patent number: 11687505Abstract: A current retention mode is identified as being one of conservative or aggressive. When the retention mode is identified as aggressive, a check is made as to whether used space on backup storage is below a lower threshold. If the used space is below the lower threshold, a switch is made into the conservative mode. If the used space is above the lower threshold, the aggressive mode is maintained. While in the aggressive mode, a backup chain of a database is selected for pruning, the selected backup chain having a shortest retention term of all backup chains not yet pruned and not being a latest backup chain. Log backups of the database in the selected backup chain are identified. Each log backup that has expired is deleted regardless of dependency of other backups on an expired log backup.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Mengze Liao, Scott Quesnelle, Yasemin Ugur-Ozekinci, Jin Ru Yan, Mike Xiaoliang Zhu

Patent number: 11593225Abstract: A method and system for live-mounting database backups. Specifically, disclosed method and system entail recovering database data—in entirety or at any granular level—without needing to provision storage resources for point-in-time database copies (i.e., backup database data), or without needing to wait for large amounts of data, representative of the point-in-time database copies, to traverse a network from backup storage to a target device. Substantively, through live-mounting, the physical point-in-time database data, as well as the associated structural metadata, may be retained on backup storage while a pointer-based snapshot, mapping to the physical point-in-time database data and structural metadata, may be generated thereon. Thereafter, a file system—mapping to the pointer-based snapshot on the backup storage—may be mounted on the target device, which exposes an interface through which the backup database data may be accessed and/or manipulated using a distributed file system protocol.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2019Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: EMC IP HOLDING COMPANY LLCInventors: Shelesh Chopra, Yasemin Ugur-Ozekinci, Kenneth William Owens, Amith Ramachandran, Navneet Upadhyay, Trichy Krishnamurthi Premkumar, Hui Yang

Publication number: 20220342767Abstract: A storage array updates snapshots of each of a plurality of storage objects of a storage group associated with a production volume on which an application image is logically stored and sends corresponding diff's to remote backup storage. The snapshots are maintained locally on the storage array and corresponding backup snapshots are updated on the remote backup storage. The remote backup storage shares a checksum algorithm with the storage array. In response to prompting from the storage array, the remote backup storage obtains or calculates a checksum of a designated backup snapshot determined with the checksum algorithm and sends the checksum to the storage array. The storage array uses the shared checksum algorithm to calculate a comparable checksum of the corresponding local snapshot. The local and backup snapshot checksums are compared to verify the integrity of the backup snapshot.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2021Publication date: October 27, 2022Applicant: EMC IP HOLDING COMPANY LLCInventors: Yasemin Ugur-Ozekinci, Georges Brun-Cottan, Ken Owens
