1. A method, comprising:
selecting one or more replicated chunk files stored on a first storage device associated with an original chunk file stored on a second storage device different than the first storage device;
updating a metadata table to indicate the one or more replicated chunk files selected are associated with a data protection grouping container without updating metadata within the one or more replicated chunk files associated with the data protection grouping container; and
applying erasure coding to the data protection grouping container, including utilizing the one or more replicated chunk files associated with the data protection grouping container as different data stripes of the erasure coding and generating one or more parity stripes based on the different data stripes.
