Abstract
Client data layout retention across server disruption can be performed and managed. In response to a data layout request from a client device (CD), a server can communicate, to CD, metadata, comprising a mapping of a group of blocks, in a data store of the server, to which CD is able to write data to the file, a file offset associated with the file, and a filesystem block number (FSBN) associated with the file offset. CD can write data to the group of blocks. CD can communicate data layout commit request, comprising the metadata relating to data layout, including file offset and FSBN, to the server. If server disruption occurs prior to committing data layout, CD can communicate reclaim request, comprising the metadata, to server, and server can recreate the data layout and commit the data layout to the data store based on the metadata.
