Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates forwarding filesystem-level information to a storage management system. During operation, a computing device receives a request for a file operation from a client computing device, and issues one or more filesystem operations in response. A filesystem device driver extracts filesystem-level information from these filesystem operations, and then forwards the extracted filesystem-level information to the storage management system.
