Abstract
Examples described herein provide for determining when individual file system operations are quiesced at a destination before validating a state of the file system object after migration. In one implementation, a metadata parameter is modified for individual file system objects after a set of mutable operations for each file system object is completed. The metadata parameter is recorded and subsequently used to determine when each of the individual file system objects are quiesced at the destination filer. The file system objects that are quiesced can be validated for migration and for implementation of any mutable file system operations that were completed at the source during the migration.
