Abstract

Systems and methods for file system management are provided. According to one embodiment, a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprises instructions that when executed by the processing resource cause the processing resource to implement, in a storage node, a multi-tiered file system comprising a read-only layer that contains a base configuration for the storage node and a read-write layer that contains modifications to the base configuration; and combine the read-only layer and the read-write layer into an overlay file system to be presented to an operating system.
