Abstract: A concurrent rebuild list indicates RAID extents to be concurrently rebuilt in response to a physical drive failure. When rebuilding of a RAID extent in the list completes, a next RAID extent to add to the list is selected that has a lowest relatedness score in a candidate set of RAID extents. The relatedness score indicates an amount of limitation with regard to concurrently rebuilding the candidate RAID extent in combination with the RAID extents remaining in the concurrent rebuild list. The relatedness score may be a sum of a weighted write score indicating limits on concurrent write operations when rebuilding a candidate RAID extent in combination with the RAID extents remaining in the concurrent rebuild list, and a read score indicating limits on concurrent read operations when rebuilding the candidate RAID extent in combination with the RAID extents remaining in the concurrent rebuild list.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a storage management method, a device and a computer-readable medium. The method comprises: receiving a request for creating a storage space, the request at least comprising a storage capacity and a RAID configuration of the storage space, the RAID configuration at least indicating a RAID type; allocating an extent based on the storage capacity; creating a RAID group for the extent based on the RAID type; and storing metadata of the RAID group in the extent, the metadata indicating a configuration of the RAID group and a configuration of a user data region in the extent.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method of managing a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) system and an electronic device. The method includes configuring a plurality of disks in the RAID system as a raw mirror for storing configuration data of the RAID system; storing metadata for the raw mirror in the plurality of disks, the metadata stored in each of the plurality disks including an identifier identifying that the disk belongs to the raw mirror and a sequence number identifying a writing operation for a block storing the metadata in the disk; and controlling reading and writing of the raw mirror based on the metadata.
