Zusammenfassung:A backup agent for orchestrating backups of production hosts includes a persistent storage that stores backup policies and a backup manager that obtains a backup analysis request for a virtual machine hosted by the production hosts; generate a dependency graph based on: backups associated with the virtual machines, and the backup policies associated with the backups; and displays a graphical user interface, using the dependency graph, including user interactive markers based on the backups and dependency indicators interconnecting the user interactive markers. While the graphical user interface is displayed, the backup manager obtains a potential backup policy update based on a user interaction with one of the user interactive markers. After obtaining the potential backup policy update, the backup manager updates the graphical user interface to reflect the potential backup policy update. After updating the graphical user interface, the backup manager initiates generation of the backup.
