Abstract
A system identifies (I) a first independent filesystem that (i) includes a file and (ii) uses file-handles to locate files and (II) a second independent filesystem that (i) operates independently of file-handles, associated with the first independent filesystem, when locating files and (ii) includes a copy of the file. The system generates a file-handle for the copy of the file on an inode of first independent filesystem based on a full-path for the copy of the file on the second independent filesystem. The system replicates one or more data blocks between the first independent filesystem and the second independent filesystem based, at least in part, on the full-path.
