Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system and method are provided for performing storage operations relating to a first secondary copy of electronic data. A storage policy or storage preferences may dictate that a replication copy should be used in storage operations performed to a particular client, sub-client, data, media or other item. Based on the storage policy, when a new client, sub-client, data, media or other item is received, a media agent determines whether there is a replication copy of the item. In the absence of a replication copy, one may be created. The replication copy may be provided by a third party application, or created by the client or a storage management system component. Information regarding the replication copy and its corresponding first secondary copy may be stored in a database. To optimize use of system resources, storage operations relating to the first secondary copy may be performed using the replication copy instead of the first secondary copy.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for performing a storage operation using a replication copy, the method comprising: receiving indication that a storage operation should be performed on a first set of data stored on a first storage volume; determining with at least computer hardware that a replication copy is available on a second storage volume, the replication copy comprises a second set of data that is a copy of at least a portion of the first set of data; automatically sele…
