Abstract
Systems and method that restore application data stored by a virtual machine database for an application (e.g., SQL, Sharepoint, Exchange, and so on) running on the virtual machine are described. The systems and methods create an integrated snapshot of the application data stored in the virtual machine database, by creating a secondary copy of the application data stored in the virtual machine database, performing, via a virtual server agent (VSA), a software snapshot of the virtual machine, and performing, via the virtual server agent, a hardware snapshot of the software snapshot of the virtual machine.
