Abstract: Techniques provide storage management. Such techniques involve storing cache data of a buffer memory corresponding to a storage disk group into a standby disk based on a determination that the number of disks in a first disk set in the storage disk group is less than a threshold number of disks.

Abstract: Technology for configuration metadata recovery that detects a reliability failure regarding configuration metadata stored in non-volatile data storage of a data storage system. The configuration metadata indicates how a metadata database is stored in the non-volatile data storage of the data storage system. In response to detection of the reliability failure regarding the configuration metadata, the technology identifies valid generations of the configuration metadata that are currently stored in the non-volatile data storage of the data storage system, and determines a user-selected one of the valid generations of the configuration metadata. The metadata database is accessed based on the user-selected one of the valid generations of the configuration metadata.

Abstract: Techniques involve determining whether data read from a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) is corrupted, the RAID including two parity disks. The techniques further involve determining, based on the read data being corrupted, whether single-disk data recovery can recover the corrupted data.

Such techniques may present a recovery solution for silent data corruption of a RAID with two parity disks, such that corrupted data can be recovered in the case of either a single-disk failure or a dual-disk failure, thereby improving the storage system performance.

Abstract: Techniques perform data storage. Such techniques may involve writing metadata to a first cache of a first processor, the metadata indicating allocation of a storage resource to user data. Such techniques may further involve determining an address range of the metadata in the first cache.

Accordingly, the data transmission volume between two processors is reduced, which helps to improve the overall performance of a storage system.

Abstract: a method and an apparatus for maintaining reliability of a mapped redundant array of independent disks. The method comprises: determining a first data loss probability, the first data loss probability indicating reliability of a traditional redundant array of independent disks; determining a second data loss probability, the second data loss probability indicating reliability of the mapped redundant array of independent disks; and determining, based on the first and second data loss probabilities, a condition for maintaining the reliability of the mapped redundant array of independent disks. Compared with the prior art, embodiments of the present disclosure can effectively predict the reliability of a mapped RAID through comparison with a traditional RAID, so as to be capable of determining a reliability relationship between the traditional RAID and the mapped RAID. In this way, the reliability of the traditional RAID will not be degraded when being expanded into the mapped RAID.

Abstract: 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.

Such techniques can ensure the consistency of the provided information without a lock.

Abstract: Techniques involve dividing a disk in RAID into a plurality of slices, and the plurality of slices include a first slice and a second slice with a first size. The techniques further involve dividing the second slice into a plurality of sub-slices, and each sub-slice in the plurality of sub-slices has a second size smaller than the first size. The techniques further involve forming a first stripe set for storing user data using the first slice and forming a second stripe set for storing metadata using the sub-slices. Such techniques enable configuring a smaller slice size for the set stripe for the metadata, and thus the granularity of storage and migration for the metadata can be reduced, and the metadata can be distributed into more disks in the RAID.

In accordance with such techniques, an access request for target data is received; a storage position of the target data is determined, the storage position indicating one of a storage device and a cache; a target element corresponding to the target data is determined from a first replacement list and a second replacement list associated with the first replacement list based on the storage position, the first replacement list including at least a counting element, the counting element indicating an access count of data in the storage device, the second replacement list including a low-frequency access element, the low-frequency access element indicating a cache page with a low access frequency in the cache; and a position of the target element in a replacement list where the target element exist is updated. Therefore, the overall performance of the storage system can be improved.

Abstract: Techniques involve determining a stripe width of an array and metadata of candidate disks available for allocating a new array, the metadata indicating a total slice number in each of the candidate disks and a number of used slices in the candidate disks. The techniques further involve determining, based on the width and the total slice number, a first number of slices in the candidate disks that are available. The techniques further involve determining, based on the number of the used slices, a second slice number in the used slices that are available; and determining, based on the first number and the second number, utilization rates of the candidate disks for the allocation for the new array. Such techniques may make the utilization rates of the candidate disks more accurate, which ensures uniform use of the respective candidate disks and improves the performance of the candidate disks.

Abstract: Techniques manage an input/output (I/O) operation. Such techniques involve estimating a first storage area in a storage device to be accessed by an upcoming random I/O operation, first data being stored in the estimated first storage area. Such techniques further involve, before the random I/O operation is executed, pre-fetching the first data from the first storage area into a cache associated with the storage device. Such techniques enable implementation of the cache pre-fetch for random I/O operations, thereby effectively improving the performance of data access.
