Abstract

Technologies are described herein for providing a power-save mode of operation for a continuous data protection ('CDP') process. A CDP module executing on a computer detects when the computer is operating under battery power, and enters a power-save mode of operation. In the power-save mode, the CDP module monitors the state of the battery and restricts the CDP process based on a set of configuration settings specified for one of a number of zones, where each zone defines an upper and lower thresholds for a level of charge of the battery. If external power is restored to the computer, the CDP module restores the normal mode of operation for the CDP process.
