Change tracking between snapshots of a source storage
Abstract:
Change tracking between snapshots of a source storage. In one example embodiment, a method includes various steps. For example, the method includes, at time t(1), starting tracking, in a change log, locations in a source storage of all blocks that are changed after time t(1). The method also includes, between time t(1) and time t(3), changing a block in the source storage. The method further includes, at time t(3), creating a first snapshot of the source storage. The method also includes, after time t(3), creating a first image backup using the first snapshot. The method further includes, at time t(8), creating a second snapshot of the source storage. The method also includes, at time t(11), creating an incremental image backup that includes all blocks in the second snapshot that are tracked as having been changed in the change log after time t(1).
