Abstract
A discovery is made of an object to be backed up on a storage array of a client. An object mapping is generated that maps the object to a LUN of the storage array where the object is located. The object mapping is stored at a backup server. A snapshot of the storage array is obtained. The object mapping is reviewed to identify on the snapshot the object to be backed up and the object is backed up to a backup storage unit.
