Methods and systems for protecting data of a persistent memory based file system

Abstract:

Methods and systems for a networked storage system is provided. One method includes creating a first snapshot for data units stored at a persistent memory of a computing device, the data units managed by a first file system; transferring metadata associated with the data units and the data units stored at the persistent memory to a storage device managed by a second file system using a logical object, the second file system executed by a storage system interfacing with the computing device; and generating a second snapshot of the logical object at the storage device, the second snapshot including data units and associated metadata of the first snapshot.
