Abstract
The targeted recovery of application-specific data corresponding to an application without performing recovery of the entire volume. The recovery is initiated by beginning to copy the prior state of the content of an application-specific data container from a prior snapshot to the application-specific data container in an operation volume accessible by the application. However, while the content of the application-specific data container is still being copied from the snapshot to the application-specific data container, the application is still permitted to perform read and write operations on the application-specific data container. Thus, the application-specific data container appears to the application to be fully accessible even though recovery of the content of the application-specific data container is still continuing in the background.
