1. A method comprising:
in response to determining that a virtual machine disk clone operation targets a virtual machine hosted by a first node having synchronous replication protection with respect to a second node, splitting the virtual machine disk clone operation to create a replication virtual machine disk clone operation;
locally implementing the virtual machine disk clone operation upon first storage to create a virtual machine disk clone within a clone backup directory of the first storage, wherein a create file operation is prevented from being implemented based upon the create file operation targeting the clone backup directory; and
sending the replication virtual machine disk clone operation to the second node for implementation upon second storage.
