Enabling data integrity checking and faster application recovery in synchronous replicated datasets
11829607 · 2023-11-28 · ·

One or more techniques and/or computing devices are provided for utilizing snapshots for data integrity validation and/or faster application recovery. For example, a first storage controller, hosting first storage, has a synchronous replication relationship with a second storage controller hosting second storage. A snapshot replication policy rule is defined to specify that a replication label is to be used for snapshot create requests, targeting the first storage, that are to be replicated to the second storage. A snapshot creation policy is created to issue snapshot create requests comprising the replication label. Thus a snapshot of the first storage and a replication snapshot of the second storage are created based upon a snapshot create request comprising the replication label. The snapshot and the replication snapshot may be compared for data integrity validation (e.g., determine whether the snapshots comprise the same data) and/or quickly recovering an application after a disaster.

USE OF CLUSTER-LEVEL REDUNDANCY WITHIN A CLUSTER OF A DISTRIBUTED STORAGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TO ADDRESS NODE-LEVEL ERRORS
20230153213 · 2023-05-18 ·

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. Rather than making use of a generalized one-size-fits-all approach in an effort to reduce complexity, an approach tailored to the node-level error scenario at issue may be performed to avoid doing more than necessary. According to one embodiment, responsive to identification of a failed RAID stripe by a node of a cluster of a distributed storage management system, for each block ID of multiple block IDs associated with the failed RAID stripe, a data block is restored corresponding to the block ID by reading the data block from another node of the cluster having a redundant copy of the data block; and writing the redundant copy of the data block to a storage area of the node that is unaffected by the failed RAID stripe.
