  • Publication number: 20260259671
    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing space balancing heuristics within a distributed storage system that makes use of disaggregated storage are provided. In various examples described herein, the unit of storage space assignment used to associate blocks of storage space within a storage pod with a given dynamically extensible file system (DEFS) is an AA, representing a large chunk of one or more gigabytes (GB). The use of AAs described herein allows disk space to be used more elastically across individual nodes of a storage cluster. Each DEFS periodically reports its AA usage information by persisting it to a respective heuristic block within the storage pod. An AA director operable within the cluster periodically monitors the reported AA usage information, performs a heuristic algorithm to determine donor and recipient DEFSs at a given instance, and triggers AA movement accordingly by matching one or more donor DEFSs to each recipient DEFS.

  • Patent number: 12723810
    Abstract: An air nozzle includes a housing and an airflow regulation apparatus. The housing includes a target air outlet and an air inlet. Air flow enters the housing through the air inlet and leaves the housing through the target air outlet. The airflow regulation apparatus is located at the target air outlet and is capable of moving between a first position and a second position. The airflow regulation apparatus exerts a greater resistance against the air flow in the first position than it exerts against the air flow in the second position. When the airflow needs to be reduced, the airflow regulation apparatus is regulated to the first position to increase the resistance against the air flow at the target air outlet. When the airflow needs to be increased, the airflow regulation apparatus is regulated to the second position to reduce the resistance against the air flow at the target air outlet.

  • Patent number: 12711026
    Abstract: Systems and methods that make use of cluster-level redundancy within a distributed storage management system to address various node-level error scenarios are provided. According to one embodiment, an instance of a key-value (KV) store of a first node of a plurality of nodes of a cluster of a distributed storage system manages storage of data blocks as values and corresponding block identifiers (IDs) as keys. A list of missing block IDs that are in use for one or more volumes associated with the first node but that are missing from the instance of the KV store are identified by performing a data integrity check on the instance of the KV store. After identifying the list of missing block IDs, instead of treating the first node as failed, restoring the missing block IDs by writing redundant data blocks retrieved from other nodes within the cluster to the first node.
