摘要： Improved backup and storage operations are disclosed for virtual computing environments using a backup proxy server to perform storage operations on one or more virtual machine disks. The proxy server can include a module that intercepts application programming interface (API) calls, for writing backup data to a first location, prior to the data arriving on the proxy disk. During the intercept process, the data can be compressed in memory pages of the proxy server and redirected to an alternative backup disk location. The proxy server can also include a differential engine that identifies changes to the virtual machine disk at the block level since the last full backup. The differential engine can advantageously leverage memory pages of the proxy server to compare differences between signatures of blocks of the last full backup with signatures of new blocks. Subsequently, only blocks with non-matching signatures are processed for backup.

摘要： A boot restore system and associated processes for rapidly restoring virtual machine images are described. The boot restore system can boot a virtual machine from a set of one or more backup files in a backup repository. The boot restore system can make the backup set available for use by the virtual machine immediately or otherwise rapidly. Thus, users may not have to wait for an actual virtual disk image to be copied to a separate file system before accessing the restored backup set. While a user is accessing the virtual machine, a live migration process can migrate the backup set to a target file system, without any disruption or substantial disruption in use of the running virtual machine.

摘要： Hybrid replication systems and methods for a virtual computing environment utilize snapshot rotation and differential replication. During snapshot rotation, data modifications intended for a source virtual machine disk (VMDK) are captured by a primary snapshot. Once a particular criterion is satisfied, the data modifications are redirected to a secondary snapshot while the primary snapshot is committed to both source and target VMDKs. The secondary snapshot is then promoted to primary, and a new secondary snapshot is created with writes redirected thereto. If the VMDKs become out-of-sync, disclosed systems can automatically perform a differential scan of the source data and send only the required changes to the target server. Once the two data sets are synchronized, snapshot replication can begin at the previously configured intervals. Certain systems further provide for planned failover copy operations and/or account for migration of a virtual machine during the copying of multiple VMDKs.

摘要： Multitier deduplication can reduce the amount of bandwidth and storage resources used during deduplication. In certain embodiments, the system can determine if a data block is stored in a first archive data storage. If so, the system can skip the data block. If not, the system can determine if the data block is stored or identified in a second archive data storage. In various implementations, the first archive data storage can be local to the system and the second archive data storage can be a global archive that may be remote from the system. The system can create a map of a plurality of backups stored at the first archive enabling the system to quickly check multiple archives. The multitier data deduplication can filter out inactive data blocks during or before performing the deduplication process.

摘要： Systems and methods programmatically determine the status of blocks in a virtual machine image. In certain embodiments, the system can determine which blocks are active, deleted, zero, or a combination of the same. In certain embodiments, the system advantageously determines block status without scanning all the blocks in a virtual machine image. Instead, the system can access metadata in a file system of a virtual machine image to determine the block status. When backing up the virtual machine image, the system can back up active blocks while skipping inactive blocks, including deleted and/or zero blocks. As a result, the system can take less time to back up a virtual machine image, and the resulting backup file or files can consume less storage space.
