Abstract
Systems and methods for performing server replication and verification are disclosed. The method includes replicating data related to a first server and generating metadata for a replicated copy that provides attributes of the replicated copy; storing the metadata at a replication server; providing the metadata from the replication server to a second server to verify that a replication operation has been successful; using the metadata to locate the replicated copy and perform verification at the second server without involving the first server; and storing at the replication server, an indication of the results of the verification performed at the second server.
