Abstract
A data protection management system for protecting content controlled by a clustered server is presented. The data protection management system includes a data protection server and a data storage pool. The data storage pool is coupled to and controlled by the data protection server for storing a replicated copy of the protected content. The data protection management system also includes a file system filter deployed on each cluster node in the clustered server. Each file system filter is configured to, upon receiving notice of a modification to the protected content, generate a change record comprising information describing the modification such that the data protection server can effectuate the same modification on the replicated content in the data storage pool corresponding to the protected content. The data protection server communicates with the clustered server as a single server in providing data protection to the protected content.
