Systems and methods for performing a data transfer in a data protection system are disclosed. A user interface is provided that includes a workflow. The workflow is effective to configure a data transfer by identifying the source of the data, the destination of the data, and the data itself. A data control process associated with the data protection system is performed to authenticate the requesting user and determine whether the user is authorized to access the data. The data is transferred in accordance with the data control process of the data protection system.

Data transfer in a data protection system

Systems and methods for performing a recovery operation for a host. A user interface is provided than enables user interface interactions that are common to or independent of the host and user interface interactions that are specific to a client backup module selected for the recovery operation. The user interface retrieves a plug-in to enable the user interface interactions that are specific to the client backup module.

Pluggable recovery in a data protection system

Systems and methods for performing a recovery operation for a host. A user interface is displayed and a recovery operation is configured. During configuration of the recovery operation, the source of the backup for the recovery operation can be selected by a user. The recovery operation is performed based on the user-selected backup.

User selectable data source for data recovery

Systems and methods for scheduling a recovery operation for a host. A user interface is displayed and a recovery operation is configured. Configuration information for the recovery operation is stored and associated with a schedule that is also set via the user interface. The recovery operation may be an ad hoc recovery operation, a periodic recovery operation, and/or a validating recovery operation.

One example method includes receiving a message from a first software program using a first communication protocol and identifying a second software program that is an intended recipient of the message. The example method further includes identifying a second communication protocol associated with the intended recipient, where the second communication protocol is incompatible with the first communication protocol such that the first software program and the second software program cannot communicate directly with each other. Finally, the example method includes transmitting the message to the second software program using the second communication protocol.

Disclosed is a method for operating a graphical user interface (GUI). In an edit state, the GUI allows a user to select multiple items from a fixed domain of items that represents a total set from which selections may be made. In a rest state, the GUI allows the user to easily recognize which of the items from the fixed domain are currently selected. In the rest state, the items currently selected are displayed in a read only mode such that user input relative to the items displayed is ignored.
