Abstract

A data management system that protects data into a continuous object store includes a management interface having a time control. The time control allows an administrator to specify a 'past' time, such as a single point or range. When the time control is set to a single point, a hierarchical display of data appears on a display exactly as the data existed in the system at that moment in the past. The time control enables the management interface to operate within a history mode in which the display provides a visual representation of a 'virtual' point in time in the past during which the data management system has been operative to provide the data protection service.
