Abstract: A method and system for implementing smart auto-backups of virtual machines using a virtual proxy. Specifically, the method and system disclosed herein overcome the potential for data loss when failure events transpire between schedule system-initiated backup operations. Data loss, more specifically, may be averted through the triggering of the smart auto-backups during the period of time elapsed between successive scheduled system-initiated backup operations. Further, the triggering may be based on the meeting of two criterion representative of an input-output (IO) operations threshold and an elapsed time threshold

Abstract: A method for performing backup operations includes, while performing a backup operation for a virtual machine (VM), detecting a network disruption between a host and a backup storage system, wherein the VM is executing on the host, and, in response to the detection, storing a portion of snapshot of the VM using a helper VM executing on a second host.
