ABSTRACT:
In an embodiment, circuitry residing, at least in part, at a first network node may initiate, at least in part, replicating, at least in part, at the first node of a file space at a second network node, may detect, at least in part, modification at the second node of the file space, and may initiate, at least in part, corresponding modification at the first node of a replication of the file space. The circuitry also may generate, at least in part, an aggregated directory structure including, at least in part, the file space and another file space resident, at least in part, remotely from the second node. The directory structure may be provided, at least in part, to the second node prior, at least in part, to completion of the replicating, at least in part, at the first node of the file space.
