A method for use in a storage system, comprising: generating a replication configuration list for a first guest operating system, the replication configuration list identifying each of a plurality of Network Attached Storage (NAS) servers that are executed in the first guest operating system; detecting a file system failure event that is associated with a failed file system, the failed file system being associated with a data volume, the failed file system being provided by a first NAS server; identifying a file system identifier that is associated with the failed file system; detecting whether the first NAS server is replicated based on the replication configuration list; and in response to detecting that the first NAS server is replicated, performing a failover for the data volume to a second NAS server that is arranged to provide a file system for a replica of the data volume.
