Abstract

A production host includes storage for storing backup priorities of entities and backup windows during which a system, of which the production host is a member, is predicted to have sufficient computing resources to generate a backup for an entity of the entities and a backup manager that identifies a backup generation event for the entity; in response to identifying the backup generation event: identifying an earliest potential backup window of the backup windows; making a determination that the earliest potential backup window of the backup windows is reserved for a second entity of the entities; in response to making the determination: identifying that a backup priority of the backup priorities that is associated with the entity is greater than a second backup priority of the backup priorities that is associated with the second entity; and providing the backup services to the entity during the earliest potential backup window.
