An Orchestrated Data Recovery (ODR) Cyber Protection Automation (CPA) operates to ensure one-to-one creation of snapsets of a production site and corresponding snapsets of a cyber vault. During an initiation phase, the ODR CPA monitors synchronization of a snapset of production volumes from the production site to the cyber vault. If additional snapsets of the production volumes are created prior to completion of synchronization of the first snapset, the additional snapsets are also synchronized to the cyber vault. Once the initial synchronization of the storage volumes has been completed, the ODR CPA causes a Storage Volume Creation and Management System (SVCMS) to create a snapset of the storage volumes at the cyber vault. Subsequently, each time a snapset is created of the production site, the ODR CPA orchestrates synchronization of the snapset to the cyber vault and creation of a corresponding snapset at the cyber vault.

A virtual tape engine migrates a virtual tape volume between filesystems. A source virtual tape volume is copied into the virtual tape engine, and a target virtual tape volume is generated. Data associated with the source virtual tape volume may be modified to generate the target virtual tape volume. For example, compression or encryption state may be modified. Migration may be triggered automatically in accordance with a migration policy. The source virtual tape volume remains accessible during migration.
