Summary:An efficient method for generating asset backup scheduling plans. Within a data protection environment, at least two service level metrics may be observed-a recovery point object (RPO) and a recovery time objective (RTO). In order to meet acceptable values for these metrics, on par with established service level agreements, infrastructure employed throughout the data protection environment, as well as the scheduling of asset backup operations, tend to grow in complexity. To address service distributions potentially emerging from the aforementioned complexities, the disclosed method proposes a heuristic approach to generating asset backup scheduling plans, which consider factors such as backup device limitations, RPO violation minimization, asset usage, and asset prioritization.
