A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and a system for pre-backup anomalous object detection and exclusion rule creation. Enterprise information technology environments often include any number of assets maintaining vast quantities of data and state. Any asset, in turn, may be riddled with various anomalous objects that tend to cause backup failure. Embodiments described herein address backup failure due to the presence of anomalous objects by, during a pre-backup stage, examining any number of assets to identify any anomalous objects there-within. Once identified, the anomalous object(s) (or metadata descriptive thereof) may be recorded within a backup skip list and, subsequently, excluded from the current and/or any future backup(s). Exclusion of the anomalous object(s), from said backup(s), may be enforced through the automatic creation of one or many exclusion rule(s) that impact, and thus adjust, the backup policy/policies associated with the asset(s).

Pre-backup anomalous object detection and exclusion rule creation

A method for managing network attached storage (NAS) assets obtaining, by a backup manager, a backup request for backing up the NAS assets, in response to the backup request: determining a number of streams available to be performed in parallel by a set of backup agents, obtaining a set of slices associated with the NAS assets, performing a categorization on the set of slices based on metadata associated with the set of slices to obtain a set of batches, initiating a slice distribution of the set of slices to the set of backup agents based on the set of batches and the number of streams, and storing the set of slices in a backup storage system.

A method for managing network attached storage (NAS) assets includes obtaining, by a backup manager, a backup request for backing up the NAS assets, in response to the backup request: determining a number of streams available to be performed in parallel by a set of backup agents, obtaining a set of slices associated with the NAS assets, assigning a portion of the set of slices to the streams based on the number of streams, initiating a backup operation based on the portion of the set of slices, monitoring, after initiating the backup operation, the backup operation to identify a stream of the streams is available, and assigning, based on the identifying, a slice of the set of slices to the stream.

A method for managing network attached storage (NAS) assets includes obtaining, by a backup manager, a backup request for backing up the NAS assets, in response to the backup request: determining a number of streams available to be performed in parallel by a set of backup agents, assigning a pre-backup operation to a first stream of the streams to obtain a set of slices for a first NAS asset of the NAS assets, initiating a first slice distribution of the set of slices to the set of backup agents based on the number of streams, assigning a second pre-backup operation to a second stream of the streams to obtain a second set of slices for a second NAS asset of the NAS assets, and storing the set of slices and the second set of slices in a backup storage system.
