Abstract
Maintaining a generation value for each fileset that is distinct from a corresponding fileset manager preserves the independence of nodes while also allowing distributed fileset management. A fileset manager can maintain a value that reflects consistency snapshots for that node ('node generation') separately from a value that reflects consistency snapshots for a particular fileset ('fileset generation').
