Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computer system for creating, by a computing device, a first directory entry with a name using a majority protocol, wherein the creation may be done on a source side for a multi-protocol delta copy migration session. Minority protocol name information associated with the first directory entry using the majority protocol may be relayed to a destination side for the multi-protocol delta copy migration session, wherein the minority protocol name information is cached on the destination side. A second directory entry with the name using the majority protocol for the multi-protocol delta copy migration session may be created on the destination side. The name of the second directory entry created using the majority protocol may be reset to the minority protocol name created using the minority protocol name information cached on the destination side.
