Abstract
A key value store is maintained at a destination and includes pages of a B+ tree holding filing metadata of first and second files belonging to a logical partition of a filesystem. The pages are associated with KVS keys, each KVS key including a logical partition id, snapshot id, and page number. The snapshot id corresponds to a current snapshot id at a time the pages were written to the KVS. A clone is created at the destination. The parent is assigned a first logical partition id, clone child is assigned a second logical partition id, and current snapshot id is incremented. The destination receives changes to the first and second files. As soon as updates are applied to one of the first or second files, the updated file is scanned for viruses while updates continue to be applied to another of the first or second files.
