Abstract
The MANAGEMENT OF DATA REPLICATION AND STORAGE APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“BDR”) transform machine datasets using BDR components into replications over a network distributing redundant ready-to-use backup files. In some implementations, the disclosure provides a processor-implemented method for managing the replication and storage of data sets.

1-28. (canceled)
A processor implemented method for managing the replication and storage of data sets comprising:
- sending a backup request according to a backup and snapshot schedule;
- receiving at a host of a first file system a backup response comprising image enabled backup data reflecting the state and content of a computer device;
- capturing a snapshot of the image enabled backup data, and storing the snapshot in the first file system;
- validating according to a remote backup schedule a vector comprising a data set indicator corresponding to the computer device, and a mirroring relationship between the first file system and a second file system;
- sending a task processing assistance request to a master server comprising a vector identifier, wherein the task processing assistance request comprises at least one of:
- a first plurality of metrics related to the operational state of the first file system, and
- a first plurality of metrics related to the operational state of the second file system;
- and
- synchronizing the first file system with the second file system only after receiving a task processing assistance response from the master server validating the mirroring relationship.

- capturing a snapshot of the image enabled backup data, and storing the snapshot in the first file system;
- validating according to a remote backup schedule a vector comprising a data set indicator corresponding to the computer device, and a mirroring relationship between the first file system and a second file system;
- sending a task processing assistance request to a master server comprising a vector identifier, the task processing assistance request being associated with at least one task having at least one action type;
- receiving by the master server a network reconfiguration request comprising at least one of:
- a command to disable the vector describing the mirroring relationship between the first file system and the second file system, and
- a command to enable the vector describing the mirroring relationship between the first file system and the second file system;
- synchronizing the first file system with the second file system only after receiving a task processing assistance response from the master server validating the mirroring relationship;
- and
- performing the at least one task associated with the task processing assistance request in accordance with a prioritization order, wherein the prioritization order is based on the at least one action type of the at least one task.
