Backup of a personal computer is automatically initiated in response to disk drive performance monitoring software which predicts impending failure or performance degradation and provides messages of such to a tape backup program. A tape backup program initiates a tape backup of data on the disk drive in response to information provided by the disk drive performance monitoring software based on user defined states of performance or other conditions which indicate an impending or possible failure. The tape backup program augments messages normally provided by the self monitoring software by indicating that the disk drive is being backed up at a particular time, and also indicate status of the backup and completion.

La copie de sauvegarde d'un ordinateur personnel est automatiquement initiée en réponse à un logiciel de contrôle de la performance de l'unité de disque, qui prédit la défaillance imminente ou la dégradation de la performance, et envoit des messages en conséquence à un programme de sauvegarde sur bande. Un programme de sauvegarde sur bande initie une sauvegarde sur bande des données sur l'unité de disque en réponse aux informations fournies par le logiciel susmentionné, et en fonction des états de performance définis par l'utilisateur ou en fonction d'autres conditions indiquant une défaillance imminente ou possible. Le programme de sauvegarde sur bande augmente les messages fournis normalement par le logiciel de contrôle automatique en indiquant que l'unité de disque subit une copie de sauvegarde à un moment particulier, et indique également l'état de la sauvegarde et sa fin.
