  • Patent number: 11599427
    Abstract: In some examples, a first computing device may receive, from a server, an indication that the server has recovered data. For instance, the first computing device may store metadata including a mapping for one or more file systems accessed by one or more client devices. Furthermore, a second computing device may store a copy of the mapping stored on the first computing device. The first computing device may receive, from the server, a mapping of the one or more file systems determined by the server based on the recovered data. The first computing device may compare the mapping from the server with the mapping of the one or more file systems on the first computing device, and may send, to the server, information about changes determined between the two mappings to enable the server to update the mapping on the server based on the changes.

  • Patent number: 11442897
    Abstract: In some examples, a client device may send, to a service computing device over a network, a request for information related to a change to a file system associated with the client device. In response, the client device may receive, from the service computing device, a list of one or more changes to the file system. The client device may add and/or update metadata for a stub file on the client device based at least partially on the received list of one or more changes. In some cases, the stub file may include a stub data structure stored on the client device, while the file content of the file corresponding to the stub file may be stored at a storage over the network.
