Abstract: Currently, administrators configure replication manually according to a data protection policy. Typically, such data protection policies are provided via a script or a similar input to provision storage devices. However, such manual configuration is subject to administrator error. For example, an administrator may not provision storage devices accurately according to a desired data protection policy. Further, this process is subject not only to human mistake, but also the administrative overhead required to manually provision the storage devices. Example embodiments of the present invention eliminate administration and reliability issues arising out of manual replication service configuration, thereby minimizing administrative costs and improving the user experience of handling data protection. Example embodiments of the present invention provide a method, an apparatus and a computer-program product for creating a policy-based replication service. The method includes receiving a policy and creating a replication service according to the policy.

- 31 Oct 2019
TL;DR: In this article, a remote backup agent that provides support services includes a persistent storage storing a bad host map and a processor that obtains a first support request for a virtual machine of the virtual machines; makes a first determination, using the capacity analysis, that the backup storages do not have sufficient capacity to service the support request; in response to the first determination: predicts a future capacity of the backup Storages and makes a second determination, with respect to the predicted future capacity, that they will be able to support the first request at a future point in time.
