Synchronized taking of snapshot memory images of virtual machines and storage snapshots

摘要

A system for providing prior operation states of a virtual machine in a storage system having at least one storage array is provided. It may be determined that a trigger for taking a snapshot image of the virtual machine and a snapshot of a storage array state has occurred. The snapshot image of the virtual machine may be taken. The snapshot of the storage array state may be taken. The snapshot image of the virtual machine and the snapshot of the storage array state may be made available for subsequent access to rollback the virtual machine and storage array state to a prior state.
