Abstract: Storage management is performed. For example, a computing device may determine that a fault belongs to one of a plurality of predefined fault categories based on description information of the fault of a storage system. Then, the computing device may determine at least one fault cause associated with the fault category at a first level of a hierarchical structure of predetermined fault causes. Further, the computing device may determine a first fault cause that causes the fault among the at least one fault cause. After that, the computing device may determine a target fault cause at the deepest level that causes the fault based on the first fault cause. As a result, the root cause of a fault of a storage system may be accurately and efficiently determined, thereby providing the possibility of fundamentally eliminating the fault.

Abstract: Techniques perform log management. Such techniques involve obtaining a count value of a counter associated with a log entry in the log, the count value of the counter incrementing at a predetermined frequency. Such techniques further involve determining a rough time instant when the log entry is created based on the count value, a reference count value of the counter associated with the log entry, a reference time corresponding to the reference count value and the frequency. Such techniques further involve correcting the rough time instant based at least in part on the frequency and a set of count values of the counter corresponding to a set of time instants, to determine a corrected time when the log entry is created. Accordingly, the log backed up to the external storage device has accurate time information.
