Abstract
Embodiments relate to systems and methods for replicating a group of data objects within a storage network. In particular, a module can designate an object in the storage network as an anchor object. The module can further evaluate a replication policy of the anchor object to determine a destination resource on which to replicate a related group of data objects. Further, the module can located the related group of data objects, and define a replication policy on each of the data objects that specifies that each of the data objects follow the anchor object. The module can replicate each of the data objects as well as the anchor object on the destination resource.
