Abstract

An information management system according to certain aspects may be configured to generate a snapshot of data relating to a plurality of applications. The system may include a plurality of data agents, wherein each data agent is associated with at least one of a plurality of applications, and data generated by the plurality of applications is stored in a logical volume in primary storage. The system may also include a snapshot manager configured to detect the plurality of applications; check with the plurality of data agents whether the associated applications are in consistent states; obtain a snapshot of the logical volume in response to receiving notifications from the plurality of data agents that the associated applications are in consistent states; and generate mapping information between a particular one of the plurality of applications and a portion of the snapshot relating to the particular one of the plurality of applications.

Claims (34)

1 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving a first snapshot request from a first application installed on one or more computing devices, wherein the first application requests snapshots according to a first schedule;

receiving a second snapshot request from a second application installed on the one or more computing devices, wherein the second application requests snapshots according to a second schedule;

determining that the first and second applications are stopped;

in response to determining that the first and second applications are stopped, causing a snapshot to be obtained of first data generated by the first application and the second application; and

generating second data that associates a portion of the snapshot with the first application,

wherein the computer-implemented method is implemented by the one or more computing devices.

2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting that the first application and the second application transmit snapshot requests at a same frequency.

3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting that snapshot data associated with the first application and snapshot data associated with the second application are retained for a first period of time.

4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the snapshot in a secondary storage device.

5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the snapshot is a hardware snapshot.

6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first application is one of a database application, an email application, or a file system.

7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein causing a snapshot to be obtained further comprises causing the snapshot to be obtained in response to receiving a notification that the first and second applications are stopped.

8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein generating second data further comprises generating the second data based at least in part on metadata relating to a data structure of one or more directories of the first application.

9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising causing the first application and the second application to resume operations in response to the snapshot being obtained.

10 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the snapshot comprises the first data generated by the first application and log data associated with the first application.

11 . An information management system configured to generate a snapshot of data relating to a plurality of applications, the information management system comprising:

one or more computing devices comprising computer hardware, the one or more computing devices comprising at least one of a plurality of data agents, each data agent associated with at least one of a plurality of applications installed on the one or more computing devices, first data generated by the plurality of applications stored in a logical volume in a primary storage subsystem, wherein the one or more computing devices is configured to:

detect the plurality of applications installed on the one or more computing devices;

receive a first snapshot request from a first application in the plurality of applications;

receive a second snapshot request from a second application in the plurality of applications;

check with at least one of the plurality of data agents whether the first and second applications are in consistent states;

in response to receiving notifications from the at least one of the plurality of data agents that the first and second applications are in consistent states, cause a snapshot to be obtained of the logical volume; and

generate second data that associates a portion of the snapshot with the first application.

12 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more computing devices are further configured to detect that the first application and the second application transmit snapshot requests at a same frequency.

13 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more computing devices are further configured to detect that snapshot data associated with the first application and snapshot data associated with the second application are retained for a first period of time.

14 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more computing devices are further configured to store the snapshot in a secondary storage subsystem.

15 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the snapshot of the logical volume comprises the first data generated by the plurality of applications that is stored in the logical volume.

16 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the logical volume comprises third data associated with a file system of the one or more computing devices.

17 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the logical volume comprises third data of a virtual machine.

18 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the snapshot is a hardware snapshot.

19 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein a first data agent of the plurality of data agents is associated with a database application, an email application, or a file system.

20 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more computing devices are further configured to cause the snapshot to be obtained of the logical volume in response to receiving notifications from two or more of the plurality of data agents, but not all of the plurality of data agents.

21 . The information management system of claim 11 , wherein a first data agent in the plurality of data agents is configured to obtain metadata relating to a data structure or one or more directories of the first application, and wherein the one or more computing devices are further configured to generate the second data based on the metadata relating to the data structure or the one or more directories of the first application.
