Abstract

A method according to one embodiment includes receiving information from a performance monitoring facility of a database at a data protection manager implemented at least in part in hardware, wherein the performance monitoring facility is configured to measure performance of the database, wherein the data protection manager is configured to control a backup operation of the database on a storage subsystem. The backup operation is started, and the performance monitoring facility is informed about the starting of the backup operation. In response to receiving an indication that a predefined performance criterion has been violated, information from the performance monitoring facility is received at the data protection manager, the data protection manager causing compliance with the predefined performance criterion in response to the information.
