ENSURING DATA INTEGRITY OF A RETAINED FILE UPON REPLICATION

摘要

Some examples described herein relate to ensuring data integrity of a retained file upon replication. In an example, a checksum of a file may be generated upon transition of the file to a retained state in a source system. The file and the checksum of the file may then be replicated to a target system. Upon replication, a checksum of the replicated file may be generated in the target system. A determination may be made whether the checksum of the replicated file matches with the checksum of the file. If the checksum of the replicated file matches with the checksum of the file, an indication may be provided that the replicated file in the target system is a valid replica of the file retained in the source system.
