Abstract
A method for backing up data in a database system relates to dynamically monitoring usage of resources such as central processing unit (CPU), memory, and network bandwidth in order to utilize them in an optimal manner in the backup process, based on the current usage of resources. A resource monitoring subsystem is configured to monitor the usage of network, CPU and memory on a server, on which both the database and backup/restoring process of data is in progress.
Claims18
A method for backing up data in a database system, comprising:
- monitoring at least one usage status of the database system;
- backing up the data using a first backup method;
- and
- backing up the data using a second backup method when the monitored at least one usage status meets a preset condition, and
- wherein the second backup method is different from the first backup method.
A database system for backing up data, comprising:
- a server;
- and
- a usage status monitor coupled to the server,
- wherein the usage status monitor is configured to monitor at least one usage status of the database system, and
- wherein the server is configured to:
- back up the data using a first backup method;
- and
- back up the data using a second backup method when the monitored at least one usage status meets a preset condition, and
- wherein the second backup method is different from the first backup method.
A database system for backing up data, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory coupled to the processor;
- and
- a monitor coupled to the processor,
- wherein the monitor is configured to monitor at least one usage status of the database system, and
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- back up the data using a first backup method;
- and
- back up the data using a second backup method when the monitored at least one usage status meets a preset condition, and
- wherein the second backup method is different from the first backup method.
