Abstract
A system for image recovery comprises an input interface and a processor. The input interface is configured to receive a block backup volume that can be mounted. The processor is configured to determine a merged chain map by consolidating one or more incremental chain maps and to store an image using the merged chain map and a volume map.
Claims25
A system for image recovery, comprising:
- an input interface configured to receive a block backup volume that can be mounted;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- determine a merged chain map by consolidating one or more incremental chain maps, wherein to determine the merged chain map includes:
- in the event that a plurality of incremental chain maps exist, process the plurality of incremental chain maps to form a consolidated chain map, and
- store an image using the merged chain map and a volume map.

A method for image recovery, comprising:
- receiving a block backup volume that can be mounted;
- determining, using a processor, a merged chain map by consolidating one or more incremental chain maps, wherein determining the merged chain map includes:
- in the event that a plurality of incremental chain maps exist, processing the plurality of incremental chain maps to form a consolidated chain map, and
- storing an image using the merged chain map and a volume map.
1 more element
A computer program product for image recovery, the computer program product being embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
- receiving a block backup volume that can be mounted;
- determining a merged chain map by consolidating one or more incremental chain maps, wherein determining the merged chain map includes:
- in the event that a plurality of incremental chain maps exist, processing the plurality of incremental chain maps to form a consolidated chain map, and
- storing an image using the merged chain map and a volume map.
