Abstract

Disclosed is a method for re-establishing RAID device automatically. The RAID device comprises plural member hard disks for one storage device which includes plural hard disks positions for setting plural hard disks. The method comprises following steps of: reading the configuration information of the storage device, in the configuration information having a hard disk position for re-establishing automatically; requiring the status information of the storage device; refreshing the storage device configuration information according to its status information; according to the configuration information of the storage device, when having one degrading member hard disk in the RAID device, adding one new hard disk to the hard disk position for re-establishing automatically, and re-establishing the RAID device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic rebuilding method, in particular to an automatic rebuilding method of a disk redundant array based on the position of a hard disk. Background technique [0002] Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks (Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks; RAID, hereinafter only replaced by RAID) equipment uses several hard disks to form a single storage device to provide larger capacity, faster access speed or data redundancy. These hard disks are called the member (Member) hard disks of this RAID device. According to the different data organization methods, it is divided into Linear, RAID-0, RAID-1, RAID-5, etc. Among them, RAID-1 and RAID-5 provide data redundancy function. [0003] As shown in Figure 1, it is the state and reconstruction operation of the RAID device. The data redundancy function means that when one or more members of the RAID device is damaged, the data on the RAID device remains intact. At this time, the RA...
