Abstract
A data management system may maintain a total-size counter for the file system. The total-size counter represents a sum of data size related to snapshots backed up to the file system. The data management system may perform data operation cycles to the file system. Each data operation cycle corresponds to a snapshot that includes files. Each data operation cycle may include incrementing the total-size counter by the data size of the files in the snapshot exchanged with the file system and adding, to a snapshot record, the amount of increment in incrementing the total-size counter as an increment-size counter. A data management system may perform a correction operation to correct the total-size counter. The correction operation may change the total-size counter by a difference between the total of the increment-size counters in the snapshot records and the total data size of file data exchanged with the file system.
