Abstract
A computational device maintains logical mirroring of a first file system with a second file system. A first set of input/output (I/O) requests is satisfied from the first file system while the second file system is undergoing defragmentation. A second set of I/O requests is satisfied from the second file system while the first file system is undergoing defragmentation.
