Abstract
An illustrative system is configured to optimize a transfer of a file system from a source storage system to a target storage system. For example, the system, in association with the transfer, determines that a copy of a collection of blocks containing data of block objects of the file system is already stored at the target storage system. In certain examples, an identifier referencing the collection of blocks is shared by the source and target storage systems and is used to determine that the copy of the collection of blocks containing data of block objects of the file system is already stored at the target storage system. The system uses the copy of the collection of blocks already stored at the target storage system instead of transferring the collection of blocks from the source storage system to the target storage system as part of the transfer.
