SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING FILE ARCHIVING

A computer-implemented method may include establishing a proxy file system that facilitates file archiving for a primary file system that does not support file archiving. The computer-implemented method may also include identifying a request to archive a file stored in a primary file system and copying the file to an archive file system such that a reference to the file is created in the proxy file system. The computer-implemented method may further include replacing the file in the primary file system with a symbolic link that identifies the reference in the proxy file system. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
