BACKUP AND RESTORE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17956407 titled 'BACKUP AND RESTORE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for an information handling system that stores an operating system and application data in separate locations, exposes them in a combined union mount filesystem, and creates a backup of the application data only.
- An information handling system with a processor and memory
- Stores operating system data in one location and application data in another
- Exposes both sets of data in a combined union mount filesystem
- Creates a backup of the application data by copying the second location
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in data storage systems, cloud computing, and backup solutions.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently managing and backing up different sets of data in an information handling system.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved data organization, easier backup processes, and enhanced system reliability.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Efficient Data Backup and Management Technology for Information Handling Systems"
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to union mount filesystems, data backup techniques, and information handling system architectures.
Unanswered Questions
1. How does this technology impact system performance? 2. Are there any limitations to the size or type of data that can be stored and backed up using this system?
Original Abstract Submitted
An information handling system may include at least one processor and a memory. The information handling system may be configured to store a first set of data comprising an operating system in a first location; store a second set of data comprising application data in a second location; expose the first and second sets of data in a combined union mount filesystem; and create a backup of the second set of data, but not the first set of data, by creating a copy of the second location.
