    Abstract: Presented herein are methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and devices triggering a metadata recovery process within a network storage system, which include: dividing metadata into metadata segments, wherein each of the metadata segments is tasked to perform a specific file system operation function, validating each of the metadata segments during the specific file system operation function; upon failure to validate at least one of the metadata segments, triggering an automatic repair process while maintaining the operation function tasked to the metadata segment, and upon finalizing the automatic repair process, resuming the specific file system operation function tasked to the metadata segment.
