Abstract: A method of data recovery for a distributed storage system is a method of recovering multiple failed nodes concurrently with the minimum feasible bandwidth when failed nodes exist in a distributed storage system. By means of selecting assistant nodes, obtaining helper data sub-blocks through computing the selected assistant nodes, then computing a repair matrix and finally multiple the repair matrix and the helper data sub-blocks, the missing data blocks are reconstructed; or the missing data blocks are reconstructed by decoding. The method is applicable to data recovery in the case of any number of failed nodes and any reasonable combinations of coding parameters. The data recovery herein can reach the theoretical lower limit of the minimum recovery bandwidth.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of data concurrent recovery for a distributed storage system, that is, a method for synchronous repair of multiple failed nodes with a minimum recovery bandwidth when a node in a distributed storage system fails. First an assistant node is selected to get helper data sub-block, then the repair matrix related to the data block stored in the node to be repaired is constructed, and finally the lost data block is reconstructed by multiplying the repair matrix and the helper data helper data sub-block; the missing data block is reconstructed by decoding, wherein the node to be recovered includes all failed systematical nodes, or all or partly failed parity nodes. The method is applicable to concurrently recover multiple failed nodes at minimal recovery bandwidth, and the nodes to be recovered are selected according to the demand to reduce the recovery bandwidth as much as possible.
