1. A system for managing composed information handling systems, comprising:
information handling systems;
a composed information handling system of the composed information handling systems comprising:
at least one compute resource set,
at least one control resource set, and
at least one hardware resource set; and
a system control processor programmed to:
obtain a message from a compute resource set indicating a write of data;
write a first copy of the data in a storage resource of the at least one hardware resource set;
write a second copy of the data in a trace volume, wherein:
the trace volume comprises a data structure that includes a plurality of secondary copies of data comprising the second copy of data; and
the trace volume is stored in storage resources implemented by the system control processor as a cyclical storage of limited storage size;
generate a backup of the data using the trace volume; and
store the backup in a storage.
