Abstract
Embodiments for enabling snapshot backups in a global name space of a cluster network, by representing the name space of cluster network in an MTree, storing data files organized in a B+ Tree format on one or more data nodes, storing name specific information of the data files in a B+ Tree format in a meta node, wherein a B+ Tree of the meta node accesses each corresponding B+ Tree in each of the one or more data nodes. The process takes snapshot backups of individual MTree limbs, and links the limbs of each snapshot into groups based on a cluster identifier and snapshot identifier.
