Abstract

A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving a plurality of updates to one or more metadata pages of a storage system, where the plurality of updates include one or more bulk updates and one or more delta updates. A transaction record may be defined. The delta updates may be written to a non-volatile log. The bulk updates may be written to a first metadata store position. The bulk updates may be written to a second metadata store position in response to writing the bulk updates to the first metadata store position. A status indicator for the transaction record may be set based upon, at least in part, writing the delta updates to the non-volatile log and one or more of writing the bulk updates to the first metadata store position and writing the bulk updates to the second metadata store position.
