Abstract: In some examples, a computing device comprising a processing resource and a machine-readable storage medium encoded with instructions executable by the processing resource to regenerate metadata. The machine-readable storage medium comprises instructions to detect a damaged meta file in a hierarchical distribution of metadata of a deduplication storage system, instructions to parse meta files in the hierarchical distribution of metadata and instructions to regenerate the damaged meta file based on the parsing of the meta files, wherein the damaged meta file is located in a higher hierarchy with respect to the parsed meta files in the hierarchical distribution of metadata.
