A system and method for examining the content of a client file system stored on an exported lun is provided. A client agent interfaces with a client file system to determine block layout information of data containers within the client file system. This block layout information is then transmitted to the storage system exporting the lun. The storage system utilizes the block layout information to generate a shadow volume utilizing the storage system's file system.
