Abstract
Indexing files to account for snapshots can include generating, based on a scan of the storage system, one or more file records. Each file record of the one or more file records can correspond to a file stored on the storage system at the time of the scan. The file records can be maintained based on one or more notifications received from the storage system. A snapshot list of the storage system can be maintained, the snapshot list having snapshot data corresponding to one or more snapshots stored on the storage system. A search result can be generated that satisfies a search parameter based at least on a) the one or more file records and/or b) the snapshot list.
