Abstract
Erasure-coded storage is widely used to reduce the data redundancy and improve the reliability of the storage system compared to replication storage. The traditional approach to fault recovery research relies mostly on passive recovery, which occurs when data loss is detected. But passive recovery reduces the system's reliability. At present, machine learning methods can accurately predict soon-to-fail (STF) disks. Based on successfully predicted disk failures, we propose a method to proactively recover data in disks by using local erasure coding within nodes, called LEC-PR (Local EC Proactive Recovery). By migrating and recovering the data in advance, the reliability of the data can be improved. LEC-PR reduces cross-node recovery times and cross-node traffic during proactive data recovery by encoding part of the data blocks inside each node into parity blocks, which are placed in other nodes. As compared to the existing method, LEC-PR can reduce cross-node traffic by 35% and shorten recovery time by up to 69%.
