Ok, a little out of the box here...I think Parisi might be proud of this one.... What about XCP?
I think... pride for Peter Schay, mostly ;-) No diminishing Justin, absolutely not.
XCP is good. Very good indeed. We've used it quite a bit recently around inventory and shuffling around of very large dense file trees (>20 M inodes) and it's fast, faster than anything else you can imagine. Just watch out though: with an NFS client like this one:
Xeon E5-2670 v3 @ 2.30 GHz (12-core) with 512G mem RHEL 7.2 (Maipo)
and cranking up the threads, you can pin even a big FAS box to the wall
/M
Why not point it at a source(could be active FS or snapshot path ) and destination (same, could be the active FS or the snapshot path ) I believe it has the ability to scan and report differences. (the verify function)
Granted, not perfect, but it should be good enough to tell you what has changed and then all those files could be suspect, no?
