Abstract
A method comprises computing a first hash value for at least one file of a plurality of files to be tiered in connection with a file tiering operation of the plurality of files from a source storage location to a destination storage location, wherein the file tiering operation comprises tiering of the at least one file to the destination storage location. In the method, the first hash value is compared to a second hash value for the at least one file, wherein the second hash value is computed from data in an object on the destination storage location corresponding to the at least one file. Based at least in part on the comparing, a determination is made whether the first hash value is the same as the second hash value. The tiering of the at least one file to the destination storage location proceeds in response to an affirmative determination.
