Abstract:
A method for performing backup operations includes selecting an application executing on a virtual machine (VM) to quiesce, generating, using a pre-snapshot template for the application, a pre-snapshot script for the application, generating a snapshot of the virtual machine after the pre-snapshot script has executed on the VM, and initiating a backup operation for the VM using the snapshot.
