Abstract

A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, is for restoring operation of a data storage system at a disaster recovery site. The computer-implemented method includes: in response to a disaster event occurring at a primary site, receiving an inode list from a cloud storage site, and receiving configuration information from the cloud storage site. The cloud storage site includes a backup copy of data that is stored at the primary site. Moreover, the inode list and the configuration information are used to construct a filesystem at the disaster recovery site. The filesystem at the disaster recovery site does not include a copy of the data that is stored at the primary site, but rather the filesystem includes a plurality of metadata stubs. The filesystem is further used to satisfy I/O commands that are received.
