20080229142 | SELF-SERVICE RECOVERY OF APPLICATION DATA - Self-service recovery of application data. A list of recoverable objects for the application is generated in response to the receipt of a request for an application recovery from a user. The list of recoverable objects for the application is sent to the user. A selected recoverable object from the user is received. In response, the execution of a recovery job on the backup and restore application is initiated for the selected recoverable object. | 09-18-2008 |
20080256110 | STORAGE MEDIA TRACKING AND MANAGMENT - Managing removable computer-readable media transporting across various locations. Data is stored on the computer-readable media at an on-site location. Each of the computer-readable media is associated with a tracking device. The tracking device has a storage medium. An intent expression is defined for each of the computer-readable media. The defined intent expression includes conditions for managing each of the computer-readable media. The defined intent expression for each of the computer-readable media is stored on the storage medium of the tracking device. The computer-readable media are transported from the on-site location to an offsite location. The stored intent expression is obtained for each of the computer-readable media on the tracking device at the offsite location to manage the computer-readable media based on the defined intent expression. | 10-16-2008 |
20080256314 | CONTROLLED ANTICIPATION IN CREATING A SHADOW COPY - Controlling data retention of a collection of data in a data store. An instruction is received to store a shadow collection of data to the data store. The data store has a previous version of the shadow collection of data. An available amount of data storage space on the data store is identified. An amount of data storage space needed is estimated for storing the shadow collection of data to the data store based on the received instruction. It is determined whether the identified available amount of data storage space is sufficient for storing the estimated amount of data storage space. The shadow collection of data is stored to the data store when said determine indicates that the identified available amount of data storage space is sufficient and the previous version is permitted to be deleted or to be overwritten. | 10-16-2008 |
20090113241 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING ALERT SYNTHESIS IN A DATA PROTECTION SYSTEM - A method for diagnosing problems with protection of a data source and recovery of the same. The method includes diagnosing a copy of data located at the storage location and diagnosing a temporal version of the copy of data. Based on the diagnosis it is determined whether an error or a warning was detected. If either were detected a response is provided with a suggested solution. | 04-30-2009 |
20100262583 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND APPARATUS FOR CREATING AN ARCHIVE ROUTINE FOR PROTECTING DATA IN A DATA PROTECTION SYSTEM - A method for creating an archive protection plan for archiving a backup of data is provided. An indication of an archive data protection kind and an archive data protection duration are received. In response to receiving the archive data protection kind and the archive data protection duration, an archive scheme is determined and an archive protection plan representative of the archive scheme is generated. | 10-14-2010 |
20120233125 | MANAGING DATA WITH BACKUP SERVER INDEXING - 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. | 09-13-2012 |
20150095846 | PAN AND SELECTION GESTURE DETECTION - A user interface that has a canvas that is extendable in an extendable dimension and on which multiple selectable elements may be placed. In this context, when a selecting control is associated with a particular selectable element, and further user gestures are provided, a pan detection mechanism is configured to distinguish between an intent to pan the canvas and an intent to select the particular selectable element. When a selecting control is associated with a particular orthogonally scrollable element, the pan detection mechanism may be distinguish between an intent to pan the canvas and an intent to scroll the orthogonally scrollable element in a direction perpendicular to the extendible dimension of the canvas. | 04-02-2015 |
20150286370 | SERVICE GALLERY USER INTERFACE PRESENTATION - A gallery user interface element that includes multiple selectable service user interface elements. Each of the selectable service user interface elements, when selected, initiates a corresponding predetermined action. Thus, the gallery may be used to initiate any number of predetermined actions by selecting appropriate service user interface elements. The predetermined actions may be performed by a number of user interface elements that are collectively offered by a variety of different applications, application extensions, or the system itself. The predetermined actions may include at least one predetermined action that extends an extendible canvas with one or more additional user interface elements. The gallery may include multiple pinnable elements and have different versions depending on a context in which the gallery was opened. | 10-08-2015 |
