    Abstract: In general, a data synchronization management system is disclosed in which files (and/or other data) are synchronized among two or more client computing devices in connection with a backup of those files. Synchronization polices specify files to be synchronized based on selected criteria including file data, metadata, and location information. In general, files are initially copied from a primary client computing device to secondary storage. Thereafter, files to be synchronized are identified from the secondary storage, and copied to other client computing devices. Additionally, synchronized files may be viewed and accessed through a cloud and/or remote file access interface.

    Abstract: An illustrative data storage management system enables a Tenant to retain control over criteria for protecting the Tenant's data, and hides details of the Service Provider's infrastructure. The Service Provider may have many data centers, each one represented within the system by a Resource Pool with attributes that reflect the infrastructure resources of the corresponding data center. A system analysis, which is triggered by the Tenant's choices for data protection, keys in on a suitable Resource Pool. The system analysis identifies suitable system resources within the Resource Pool and associates them to the data source. Subsequent data protection jobs invoke proper system components based on the associations created by the system analysis. In some embodiments, the system will invoke infrastructure resources created on demand when a data protection job is initiated rather than being pre-existing resources.

    Abstract: A system or method for managing an auxiliary data location and a secondary data location. A client computing device may have secondary copies of its primary data stored at a secondary storage device, as well as auxiliary copies of the secondary copies at an auxiliary storage device. The client computing device may move from one geographic location that is near the secondary storage device to a second geographic location that is far from the secondary storage device, but closer to the auxiliary storage device. A method is provided with input signals in response to the move, and outputs a probability value that the move is temporary or permanent. Based on the output, a storage manager that manages the client computing device may then direct the client computing device to use the auxiliary storage device for storing secondary copies.

    Abstract: Described herein are techniques for better understanding problems arising in an illustrative information management system, such as a data storage management system, and for issuing appropriate alerts and reporting to data management professionals. The illustrative embodiments include a number of features that detect and raise awareness of anomalies in system operations. Categories of interest include events and job anomalies, such as long-running jobs and job success/failure rates. Anomalies are characterized by frequency anomalies and/or by occurrence counts. Utilization is also of interest for certain key system resources, such as deduplication databases, CPU and memory at the storage manager, etc., without limitation. Predicting low utilization periods for these and other key resources is useful for scheduling maintenance activities without interfering with ordinary data protection jobs.

    Abstract: According to certain aspects, a method can include electronically accessing, by a storage manager, a stored synchronization policy specifying at least a first folder associated with a first computing device and a second folder associated with a second computing device; identifying a first file stored in the first folder as a candidate for synchronization; receiving an indication as to a location of the first computing device and the second computing device; in response to a determination that the first computing device is not located within a geographic region, electronically generating and transmitting instructions to the first computing device to remove the first file from the first folder; and in response to a determination that the second computing device is located within the geographic region, electronically generating and transmitting instructions to cause transmission of the first file to the second computing device for storage in the second folder.
