Summary: | Embodiments include a method and associated system and computer program product. A capacity utilization of an application system and a backup system for a first period of time is monitored, resulting in retrieving utilization statistics indicative of the capacity utilization. An application load score for the application system and a backup load score for the backup system are determined for several time slots of a backup schedule. For each time slot, a suitability score is determined, by combining the application load score and the backup load score. The suitability score is indicative of a suitability of the application system and the backup system in combination for execution of a backup during the time slot. A first time slot whose suitability score does not exceed a predefined threshold is selected. The backup is scheduled for the first time slot for the application system and for the backup system. |
