Abstract

A method for managing a plurality of computing machines includes accessing a catalogue memory structure storing a plurality of component signatures, discovering one or more of the software components being instantiated in a software image of each computing machine according to corresponding ones of the component signatures, detecting one or more connections each being established between at least two instantiated software components of different computing machines, receiving a restore command for restoring a target recovery point selected among a plurality of recovery points, and restoring the target recovery point in response to the restore command by restoring the snapshots associated with the target recovery point on corresponding computing machines.
