Abstract: Apparatus and method for scheduling the storage backup of data sets in either an application or system-managed storage context using an algorithm in which less data and a smaller backup interval (window) are involved other than that used with prior art FULL, INCREMENTAL, or COMBINATION backup policies. The invention is premised on an INCREMENTAL backup policy sensitive to a pair of adjustable parameters relating to the last backup, last update, and current date affecting each data set and its storage group.

Abstract: Data in pages is mapped into a very large virtual external address space (25) through a cache without disturbing the logical view of the data and without having to assign physical or real backing store to said logical view. A data cache (27) is used in which pages are indexed according to a logical address (23) intermediate to their virtual address and their physical location in external storage (5). Pages common to two or more files are updated in place in the cache, while pages bound to only one file are shadow copied.
