(57) ABSTRACT A distributed network of storage elements (DNSE) is pro vided in which the
physical capacity of each drive is split into a set of equal sized logical splits which are …

In a provider network, attributes of one of a plurality of storage devices of the provider
network are identified for failure monitoring. Based on a failure prediction model, a predicted …

Embodiments of the present disclosure aim to provide a solution for improving RAID
rebuilding performance. In a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a …

A storage controller detects a failure of any one of storage units making up a RAID group.
The storage controller incorporates plural hot spares HS into the RAID group, as substitute …

Techniques involve: if it is detected that a storage pool fails, determining the number of failed
storage devices in the storage pool; if it is determined that the number reaches a threshold …

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and device for RAID rebuilding. In
some embodiments, there is provided a computer-implemented method. The method …

Each SSD in an array is divided into splits that are contiguous LBA ranges of equal capacity.
The splits are managed as if they were sub-drives or logical drives and used in RAID groups …

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, a device and a computer
readable medium for managing a storage system. The method can determine a mapping …

An interruption of services for a multi-tier application is avoided based on a probability of a
disk failure. A criticality factor value is assigned to a component of the multi-tier application …
