Abstract
Various systems and methods of a distributed file system architecture are disclosed. A method for creating a file may include receiving a message to open or create a file with a given name from a file system call handler. Once the message has been received a determination may then be made as to whether a file with the given name exists. If no file with the given name exists, then a new file with the given name may be created and assigned a globally unique file number.
