In one embodiment, and under control of resources belonging to a controller domain of a data center, a farm server for which a backup operation is to be performed is identified. Interfaces of backup services belonging to the controller domain are then virtually associated with the first farm network. Thereafter, the farm server and backup services are registered in a backup domain of the data center, the backup domain being associated with backup storage. Via the backup services that have been associated with the first farm network, and during execution of the backup operation by the farm server, movement of backup data from the first farm network to the backup storage is facilitated by the method. After completing the backup operation, the farm server and backup services are un-registered from the backup domain, and the interfaces of the backup services are de-associated from the first farm network.

Apparatus and method for Storage Resource Management (SRM)&mdash;i.e., the management of computer storage devices as resources. Methods for Storage Resource Management are described that can be easily and efficiently scaled to computer systems which could include thousands of computers while providing detailed file storage attributes. These methods include three phases: (1) an initialization phase, (2) a data collection phase, and (3) a management server communication phase.

Efficient, real-time management of storage resources

A system on a development computer system that sends commands over a network to a target computer system to cause the target computer system to compile code from the development computer system. Before sending compiler parameters to the target computer system, the system converts all the command line compiler parameters into a neutral parameter format and then into a format usable on the target computer system. Compile errors are converted into a neutral format and then into a format that is usable by the system on the development computer system. This allows a developer using the development computer system to perform the compile and receive error messages as if the compile were being performed on the development computer system. The system also converts the file names for the source file and any other desirable files to allow the target computer system to access the source files located on the development computer system over the network.
