A roll-back memory can be used to incrementally restore one or more data
volumes in reverse chronological order to the data state they occupied at
some prior point in time without using a backup copy. After the one or
more data volumes have been restored in reverse chronological order, a
roll-forward memory can be used to incrementally restore the one or more
data volumes in forward chronological order to the data state they
occupied at some other point in time without using a backup copy.
Incrementally restoring the one or more data volumes in reverse
chronological order may follow an incremental restoration of the one or
more data volumes in forward chronological order and vice versa until the
one or more data volumes are in the data state they occupied just prior
to, for example, a data corruption event.
