Abstract

See full text

For data backup and recovery based on linked file repositories with each of the linked file repositories representing an individual file system capable of storing at least one version of a file and being connected to at least one server system, each of the linked file repositories are placed in a certain position for storing a certain version of the file. Each position of each of the linked file repositories is continuously numbered. A number of the versions of the file are determined by the position of the one of the linked file repositories. A version-movement process over each of the linked file repositories is implemented to perform a read operation of the at least one version of the file.
