Abstract
A method and system for efficient virtual machine operation while recovering data. Specifically, the disclosed method and system enable the activation of virtual machines while virtual machine data, pertinent to the virtual machines, may concurrently be undergoing restoration. By activation, virtual machines may be permitted to issue input-output operations targeting their respective virtual machine data. Further, whether or not the sought virtual machine data has been recovered, fulfillment of the input-output operations may entail accessing virtual machine data either stored locally or retained remotely on a backup storage service.
