In some examples, a first computing device may receive, from a server, an indication that the server has recovered data. For instance, the first computing device may store metadata including a mapping for one or more file systems accessed by one or more client devices. Furthermore, a second computing device may store a copy of the mapping stored on the first computing device. The first computing device may receive, from the server, a mapping of the one or more file systems determined by the server based on the recovered data. The first computing device may compare the mapping from the server with the mapping of the one or more file systems on the first computing device, and may send, to the server, information about changes determined between the two mappings to enable the server to update the mapping on the server based on the changes.

Distributed recovery of server information

In some examples, a computer system may receiving a request to allow a second user associated with a second user account to access at least one of a folder or a link associated with a first user account of a first user. The computer system may determine a first profile associated with the first user account, and may further determine whether sharing whitelisting is enabled for the first profile. Additionally, the computer system may determine a second profile associated with the second user account, and may determine whether the second profile is included in a sharing whitelist of the first profile. When sharing whitelisting is enabled for the first profile, the computer system may allow a client device associated with the second user account to access the folder and/or the link when the second profile is included in the sharing whitelist of the first profile.
