Abstract
Systems and methods transparently move a file service in a clustered environment of storage filers. A first storage filer generates file service data for the file service. The first storage filer associates the file service with an identification. The first storage filer allocates the file service data to at least one memory page in the first storage filer based on the identification. The first storage filer determines an indication to transfer the file service. The first storage filer then transfers at least one memory page using the identification to a second storage filer.
