Patent number: 11429500Abstract: In response to failure of a data storage drive, data previously stored on the failed drive is rebuilt on a replacement data storage drive by executing drive rebuild jobs on a first set of processor cores. While the data previously stored on the failed data storage drive is being rebuilt, a second set of processor cores is used to process host I/O (Input/Output) requests. The host I/O requests processed by the second set of processor cores may be a first set of host I/O requests processed during the data rebuild. When a current total number of outstanding host I/O requests exceeds a threshold maximum number of outstanding host I/O requests, at least one processor core in the first set of processor cores may be used to process a second set of host I/O requests while the data previously stored on the failed data storage drive is being rebuilt.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Hongpo Gao, Philippe Armangau, Geng Han, Jian Gao, Shaoqin Gong
