Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, device and computer program product for determining a consistency level of a virtual machine snapshot. The method comprises obtaining a backup log file of the virtual machine snapshot generated in a virtual machine backup process, the backup log file comprising log information related to the generation of the virtual machine snapshot. The method further comprises determining the consistency level of the virtual machine snapshot based on the backup log file, the consistency level indicating a matching degree between a state of a virtual machine represented by the virtual machine snapshot and an actual state of the virtual machine when the virtual machine snapshot is generated.
