The method includes performing virtual machine (VM) discovery on a transitioned VM to obtain secondary information, classifying, using a tag mapping, the transitioned VM using at least the secondary information to identify a tag, associating the transitioned VM with a backup policy based on the tag, and sending the backup policy and the tag to a production host hosting the transitioned VM.

System and method for efficient entity transition

A remote agent for managing resources includes a persistent storage that stores disaster recovery policies keyed to tags applied to the resources and a resource tagger that identifies a change in a resource; in response to identifying the change: performs an application priority analysis of the resource to identify a first tag based on the change in the resource; performs an interaction frequency analysis of the applications of the resource to identify a second tag; tags the resource with a tag; and performs a disaster recovery for the resource using a disaster recovery policy of the disaster recovery policies that is keyed to the tag.

System and method for tag based backup infrastructure

A remote agent for managing virtual machines includes a persistent storage and a backup manager. The persistent storage stores backup/restoration policies. The backup manager generates backups of the virtual machines based on the backup/restoration policies. The remote agent also includes a resource tagger that obtains a management request for a virtual machine of the virtual machines; in response to obtaining the management request: performs a remote resource analysis of the virtual machine to obtain an application profile of the virtual machine; performs a multidimensional application analysis of the application profile to identify at least one tag; and applies the at least one tag to the virtual machine.

System and method for virtual machine resource tagging

A remote agent for managing virtual machines includes a persistent storage that stores backup/restoration policies. The remote agent includes a resource tagger that applies first tags to the virtual machines based on computing resource consumption of the virtual machines for providing services to clients. The remote agent includes a storage manager that obtains a backup generation request for a virtual machine of the virtual machines; in response to obtaining the backup generation request: makes a determination that a tag of the first tags is associated with the virtual machine; in response to the determination: generates a composite workflow based on: a computing resource limitation indicated by the tag and a backup policy of the backup/restoration policies associated with the virtual machine; and generates a backup for the virtual machine based on the composite workflow.

System and method for consumption based tagging of resources

Embodiments are described for automatic backup and replication of virtual machines in a virtual center. A system or processor-based operation defines policies governing backup conditions and criteria for backing up and recovering the virtual machines, continuously polls the VMs of the virtual center to determine the health or change in each virtual machine. A backup component backs up at least one VM by copying or transferring data including content and state information of the VM to a storage device or other virtual center. The system detects if a failure condition or change in excess of a defined threshold value exists for any virtual machine, and if so, initiates a recovery operation, and then sends a message to the system administrator regarding the backup and recovery.

Automated backup and replication of virtual machine data centers

Handling backups when target storage is unavailable is described. A system determines whether the target storage is unavailable for storing any backup file for a client. The system determines whether a backup file is created for the client if the target storage is unavailable for storing any backup file for the client. The system stores the backup file in a memory of a computer if the backup file is created for the client, wherein the computer differs from the target storage and differs from the client. The system determines whether the target storage is available for storing the backup file for the client. The system transfers the backup file from the memory of the computer to the target storage if the target storage is available for storing the backup file for the client.
