Method and system for consolidating related partial operations into a transaction log

Improved logging techniques that produce transaction logs are disclosed. The logging techniques are able to consolidate multiple related partial operations performed on a server device into a single log entry in a transaction log. Accordingly, the logging techniques are well suited for logging operations of protocols in which transactions are often completed over multiple operations. The logging techniques are particularly well suited for logging access to NFS file and/or directory resources with respect to a NFS server, even when the NFS operations are performed via Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) to the NFS server.
