Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for processing a file system image of a file system are presented. In an example, a file system image processing system may include an image processor module to access a file system image stored at a first server of a file system while the file system image is not being modified, and to store a representation of the file system image. Further, the file system image processing system may include a transaction processor module to repeatedly access transaction data stored at a second server of the file system separate from the first server, in which the transaction data describes file system edit transactions not represented in the accessed file system image. The transaction processor module may modify the representation of the file system image based on the accessed transaction data.
