Abstract
Systems and methods for backing up data of a client. In a system that includes clients in communication with a server, the data of the client is backed up by first enumerating writers that are active on a client. Metadata from the active writers is received and identifies data to be backed up. A snapshot of the client is taken and the client data identified in the metadata received from the writers is backed up from the snapshot.
