ABSTRACT:
A computer-implemented method for storing information that identifies the state of health of a computing system at the time a backup of the computing system is created may comprise: 1) identifying a backup of the computing system, 2) performing an evaluation of the computing system's health, and then 3) storing health information that identifies the state of health of the computing system when the backup was created as metadata to the backup. Similarly, a method for determining whether to restore a backup of a computing system based on health information may comprise: 1) identifying a backup of the computing system, 2) identifying health information stored as metadata to the backup that identifies the state of health of the computing system when the backup was created, and 3) determining, based on the health information, whether to restore the backup. Corresponding systems and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
