Patent Images
1. A computer implemented method for recovering data from cold images comprising:
- searching primary storage of a target recovery device having an operating system stored on the primary storage that is not running;
identifying one or more structures on the primary storage;
parsing, using at least one computer processor, the one or more identified data structures; and
recovering one or more portions of the one or more parsed data structures, wherein recovery comprises reading the one or more portions of the one or more parsed data structures from the primary storage of the target recovery device.

15. An article of manufacture for recovering data from cold images, the article of manufacture comprising:
-
at least one non-transitory processor readable storage medium; and instructions carried 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; search primary storage associated with a target recovery device having an operating system stored on the primary storage that is not running; identify one or more data structures on the primary storage; parse the one or more identified data structures; and recover one or more portions of the one or more parsed data structures, wherein recovery comprises reading the one or more portions of the one or more parsed data structures from the primary storage of the target recovery device.
