Abstract

Methods and systems for a networked storage environment are provided. One method includes generating a first and a second batch of entries in response to scanning a source file system, each batch of entries associated with one or more directories of the source file system and indicating a path to a file associated with each entry; determining, by a first worker process, a first checksum for data associated with the first batch of entries loaded in a first buffer; appending, the first buffer contents processed by the first worker process to a first archive file; and generating an archive data structure having a manifest file storing metadata for the first batch and a second batch entries with a first checksum determined by the first worker process and a second checksum determined by a second worker process, and data from the first archive file and a second archive file.
