Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, systems, and computer program products for storage management. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method is disclosed. According to the method, in response to receiving a request related to managing the at least one directory entry in the file system, at least one directory entry in a file system may be determined by a file system in a storage system, where each of the at least one directory entry is represented by digital numbers. An index for each of the at least one directory entry may be managed in the file system by the file system, where an index key for the index comprises the digital numbers themselves. In other embodiments, a computer-implemented system and a computer program product for managing the index are disclosed.
