Abstract
A data backup and restore method and system for a multiple computer system environment is provided. The method/system comprises an automated approach for backing up and if necessary restoring computer system data from a first computer system to an auxiliary storage pool of a second computer system. At the first computer system, a renaming of system data to be backed up is accomplished such that the renamed system data designates the first computer system as the source system of the system data and comprises a name different from any name of system data at the second computer system. The renamed system data is then backup stored by the first computer system to the auxiliary storage pool of the second computer system. Multiple computer systems in the multisystem environment can be backed up to the same target computer system, either to the same auxiliary storage pool or to different auxiliary storage pools. Partial or complete restore of the backed up system data is also discussed.
