EFFICIENT MANAGEMENT OF SPECIALIZED CONTROL FILES USED FOR BACKUP RESTORE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17962648 titled 'EFFICIENT MANAGEMENT OF SPECIALIZED CONTROL FILES USED FOR BACKUP RESTORE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system for managing specialized files used for backup and restore, allowing for automated recovery without manual identification of critical information.
- The system includes specialized objects stored as part of metadata by a backup agent.
- Information such as control files and parameter files are stored within these objects for efficient retrieval during a restore operation.
- The system provides an additional layer of recover capability and efficiency, particularly in disaster recovery scenarios.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries where data backup and restore processes are critical, such as healthcare, finance, and information technology.
Problems Solved
1. Manual identification of critical information required for a restore operation is eliminated, increasing efficiency. 2. The system provides an additional layer of recover capability, enhancing disaster recovery processes.
Benefits
1. Automated recovery process reduces the risk of human error during restore operations. 2. Efficient retrieval of critical information improves the overall speed and effectiveness of data recovery.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Efficient Data Recovery System for Disaster Scenarios"
Possible Prior Art
There may be existing systems that manage backup and restore processes, but the specific method of storing critical information within specialized objects for efficient retrieval during a restore operation may be a novel aspect of this technology.
Unanswered Questions
1. How does the system ensure the security and integrity of the stored critical information? 2. Are there any limitations or constraints in terms of the size or type of files that can be managed by this system?
Original Abstract Submitted
Described is a system for management of specialized files used for a backup restore. The system may allow for an automated recovery to be performed without having to manually identify critical information required to perform a restore of a particular backup within a backup chain. This information may include a control file and a parameter file. A backup agent may store such information within specialized objects that are stored as part of metadata managed by a backup agent to provide an additional layer of recover capability and efficiency. This information may then be leveraged for retrieval during a restore operation, for example, in a disaster recovery scenario.
