<p>The subject disclosure is directed towards partially recalling file ranges of deduplicated files based on tracking dirty (write modified) ranges (user writes) in a way that eliminates or minimizes reading and writing already-optimized adjacent data. The granularity of the ranges does not depend on any file-system granularity for tracking ranges. In one aspect, lazy flushing of tracking data that preserves data-integrity and crash-consistency is provided. In one aspect, also described is supporting granular partial recall on an open file while a data deduplication system is optimizing that file.</p>
