1. A method for continuous data protection comprising:
- polling, using at least one computer processor, a data protection client device;
receiving a response from the data protection client device;
parsing the response to determine whether restarting a data protection process on the data protection client device is required; and
restarting a data protection process on the data protection client device if restarting the data protection process is required.

10. An article of manufacture for continuous data protection, the article of manufacture comprising:
-
at least one non-transitory processor readable storage medium; and instructions stored on the at least one storage medium; wherein the instructions are configured to be readable from the at least one storage medium by at least one processor and thereby cause the at least one processor to operate so as to; poll a data protection client device; receive a response from the data protection client device; parse the response to determine whether restarting a data protection process on the data protection client device is required; and restart a data protection process on the data protection client device if restarting the data protection process is required.
