Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computer system for acquiring, by a first node, local locks of the first node associated with a metadata log transaction, wherein the first node acquires the local locks of the first node prior to sending a commit message to a second node. The second node may acquire local locks of the second node associated with the metadata log transaction, wherein the second node acquires the local locks of the second node based upon, at least in part, receiving the commit message from the first node.
