A computer-implemented method for selecting file-recall modes based on environmental properties may include (1) intercepting a request to recall a file from a secondary storage system to a primary storage system, (2) identifying a value of a dynamic environmental property associated with the file that may negatively impact performance of a mode of recalling the file from the secondary storage system to the primary storage system, (3) identifying a policy that comprises criteria for selecting an appropriate recall mode for recalling the file from the secondary storage system to the primary storage system, (4) adaptively selecting, by applying the policy to the value of the dynamic environmental property, a recall mode for recalling the file, and (5) recalling the file from the secondary storage system to the primary storage system using the selected recall mode. Various additional methods, systems, and configured computer-readable-storage media are also disclosed.

Systems and methods for adaptively selecting file-recall modes

A computer-implemented method for selecting file-recall modes based on environmental properties may include: 1) identifying a request to recall a file from a secondary storage system to a primary storage system, 2) identifying at least one environmental property associated with the file, 3) selecting, based at least in part on the identified environmental property, a recall mode for recalling the file, and then 4) recalling the file from the secondary storage system to the primary storage system using the selected recall mode. Various additional methods, systems, and configured computer-readable-storage media are also disclosed.
