Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Indexing functionality can be shifted to one or more backup servers in a backup system. In one implementation, a backup server can receive one or more data backups from one or more production servers. The backup server can then build or create one or more indexes at the backup server, which correspond to the contents of the one or more data backups. In one implementation, one or more management agents can also identify any appropriate components that might be needed to read the backup data at the backup server pursuant to building the one or more indexes. In either case, the one or more indexes can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as to manage data usage quotas at the one or more production servers, as well as to retrieve data from the backup server based on specific file requests.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. A system for performing, at a backup server in a computerized environment in which the backup server backs up data of one or more production servers, a method of managing quota allocations at least in part through indexing the data backups at the backup server, the system comprising one or more computer processors and one or more storage devices having stored thereon computer executable code which, when executed upon the one or more processors, performs the acts of: r…
