Abstract: A method for indicating property inheritance in object hierarchies is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes enabling a user to select an object in an object hierarchy. In response, the method displays a property sheet showing property values for the selected object. The property sheet shows a property value that is inherited from an object upstream from the selected object. The method provides, on the property sheet, an icon indicating a level in the object hierarchy from which the property value is inherited, and a label indicating a source object in the object hierarchy from which the property value is inherited. The label may, in certain embodiments, incorporate a name associated with the source object and link to a property sheet associated with the source object. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.

Abstract: A system correlates application information from within a virtual guest to an entity managing off-host data protection. During a data protection operation, the system exploits the virtual hierarchy to centralize the configuration and management of operating system credentials of numerous virtual guests. For each virtual guest, the system uses the credential to collect a single Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) previously generated and stored in-guest by any data protection agent. The system stores the collected GUID as a custom property in the context of the virtual hierarchy. The system also exploits the virtual hierarchy custom properties to determine if GUIDs are copies due to virtual guest replication. The system ensures GUID's uniqueness by requesting regeneration of the GUID by in-guest data protection agents. Using GUIDs that are unique across the virtual hierarchy, from the entity managing off-host data protection, the system can correlate application data of multiple in-guest data protection agents.
Abstract translation: 系统将来自虚拟客户端的应用信息与管理脱离主机数据保护的实体相关联。 在数据保护操作期间,系统利用虚拟层次结构来集中许多虚拟客户端的操作系统凭据的配置和管理。 对于每个虚拟客户端,系统使用凭据来收集任何数据保护代理先前生成和存储在客户机中的单个全局唯一标识符(GUID)。 系统将收集的GUID作为自定义属性存储在虚拟层次结构的上下文中。 系统还利用虚拟层次结构自定义属性来确定GUID是否是由于虚拟客户机复制而导致的副本。 系统通过请求由访客数据保护代理重新生成GUID来确保GUID的唯一性。 使用在虚拟层次结构中唯一的GUID,来自管理脱离主机数据保护的实体,系统可以将多个来访者数据保护代理的应用程序数据相关联。

Abstract: Provided are techniques for exploiting object tags in order to produce a work order across several backup engines for a backup job. A selection of tags for an object is received. A work order for the object is created using the tags. The work order is stored with a virtual server that stores the object, wherein a data mover of a backup engine retrieves the work order from the virtual server to back up the object.

Abstract: A method for presenting options associated with restoring data is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes providing a calendar, such as a monthly calendar, showing multiple days. The method enables a user to select a day on the calendar. In response to the selection, the method automatically displays, together with the calendar, a list of restore points associated with the selected day. The method further enables a user to select a restore point in the list. In response to the selection, the method automatically displays, together with the calendar and list of restore points, a list of restore options associated with the selected restore point. The method further enables the user to select a restore option, associated with a data recovery method, from the list of restore options. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
