Zusammenfassung:	Synchronizing metadata among storage systems synchronously replicating a dataset, where synchronizing the metadata includes: receiving, at a first storage system of the storage systems, an I/O operation directed to the dataset; determining, in dependence upon the I/O operation, a metadata update describing a mapping of segments of content to a virtual address within a storage object, wherein the storage object includes the dataset; and synchronizing metadata on a second storage system of the storage systems by sending the metadata update to the second storage system to update a metadata representation on the second storage system in accordance with the metadata update.
