Software, firmware, and systems are described herein that permit an organization to dock previously-utilized, limited-feature data management modules with a full-featured data management system. By docking limited-feature data management modules to a full-featured data management system, metadata and data from the various limited-feature data management modules can be integrated and utilized more efficiently and effectively. Moreover, additional data management features can be provided to users after a more seamless transition.

A method for detecting and archiving idle virtual machines running on at least one computing device having primary data storage, the method comprising: automatically determining that a virtual machine has been idle for at least a first predefined period of time, wherein the virtual machine is one
1. A method for detecting and archiving idle virtual machines running on at least one computing device having primary data storage, the method comprising: automatically determining that a virtual machine has been idle for at least a first predefined period of time, wherein the virtual machine is one of multiple virtual machines running on the at least one computing device,wherein the virtual machine is stored on the primary data storage, andwherein the virtual machine is associated with at least one virtual machine file;in response to the determining that a virtual machine has been idle for at least a first predefined period of time, shutting down the virtual machine,after the virtual machine has been shut down for at least a second predefined period of time, copying the at least one virtual machine file to a secondary storage device, wherein copying the at least one virtual machine file to the secondary storage device includes replacing the at least one virtual machine file in the primary data storage with a stub referring to a secondary copy of the at least one virtual machine file on the secondary storage device. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprises: displaying, via a graphical user interface, an indication that the virtual machine has been archived;detecting a selection of the virtual machine;providing a menu of options to a user via the graphical user interface, wherein the options include an option to restore the virtual machine;detecting a selection of the option to restore the virtual machine;restoring the at least one virtual machine file; andstarting the virtual machine. 3. The method of claim 1, the method further comprising: providing an indication that the virtual machine has been archived;detecting a selection of the virtual machine;providing an option to restore the virtual machine;detecting a selection of the option; andrestoring the at least one virtual machine file. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein determining that the virtual machine has been idle for at least the first predefined period of time includes determining that application-level processes of the virtual machine have been idle for at least the first predefined period of time. 5. A system for detecting and archiving idle virtual machines, the system comprising: a processor;a memory;a component that automatically— detects an idle virtual machine from among multiple virtual machines,determines that the one detected virtual machine has been idle for a first period of time,determines that the one detected virtual machine has at least one virtual machine file associated with the virtual machine, andshuts down the detected virtual machine; anda component that, after the one detected virtual machine has been shut down for a second period of time, archives the at least one a virtual machine file associated with the virtual machine by copying the virtual machine file to a secondary storage device,wherein archives includes replacing the virtual machine file in a primary location with a stub referring to a secondary copy of the virtual machine file on the secondary storage device. 6. The system of claim 5, further comprising: a component that replaces an icon normally associated with the detected virtual machine and the associated virtual machine file with a new icon corresponding to an archived virtual machine, wherein the new icon provides a visual indication that the virtual machine has been archived;a component that detects that a user selects the new icon;a component that provides an option to restore and restart the virtual machine;a component that detects a selection of the option; anda component that restores the archived virtual machine file and restarts the virtual machine. 7. The system of claim 5 wherein the virtual machine file is stored in the memory, further comprising: deleting, by the component that archives the at least one virtual machine file associated with the virtual machine, the virtual machine file when the at least one virtual machine file is not accessed for more than a third predefined period of time. 8. The system of claim 5, wherein the first period of time is 15 days, and wherein the second period of time is 30 days. 9. The system of claim 5, wherein the component that automatically determines that the virtual machine has been idle for at least the first period of time includes determining that application-level processes of the virtual machine have been idle for at least the first period of time. 10. A tangible non-transitory computer-readable medium carrying instructions to perform a method for detecting and archiving idle virtual machines running on at least one computing device having primary data storage, the method comprising: automatically determining that a virtual machine has been idle for at least a first predefined period of time, wherein the virtual machine is one of multiple virtual machines running on the at least one computing device,wherein the virtual machine is stored on the primary data storage, andwherein the virtual machine is associated with at least one virtual machine file;in response to the determining that a virtual machine has been idle for at least a first predefined period of time, shutting down the virtual machine;after the virtual machine has been shut down for at least a second predefined period of time, copying the at least one virtual machine file to a secondary storage device; wherein copying the at least one virtual machine file to the secondary storage device includes replacing the at least one virtual machine file in a primary location with a stub referring to a secondary copy of the at least one virtual machine file on the secondary storage device. 11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising: displaying, via a graphical user interface, an indication that the virtual machine has been archived;detecting a selection of the virtual machine;providing a menu of options to a user via the graphical user interface, wherein the options include an option to restore the virtual machine;detecting a selection of the option to restore the virtual machine;restoring the at least one virtual machine file; andstarting the virtual machine. 12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising: providing an indication that the virtual machine has been archived;detecting a selection of the virtual machine;providing an option to restore the virtual machine;detecting a selection of the option; andrestoring the at least one virtual machine file. 13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising: wherein determining that the virtual machine has been idle for at least the first predefined period of time includes determining that application-level processes of the virtual machine have been idle for at least the first predefined period of time. 14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, wherein the first period of time is 15 days, and wherein the second period of time is 30 days.
