Abstract

The invention discloses a large-scale cluster storage system and a construction method thereof. The large-scale cluster storage system improves the management efficiency of large-scale cluster storage and mainly comprises a setting module, storage arrays, service nodes, a division module and a generation module, wherein the setting module is used for setting an arrangement strategy and a distribution mechanism; the storage arrays are used for providing a data storage function; the service node is used for accomplishing at least one of the services of data input and output control, protocol conversion, computer application and the like; the division module is used for dividing at least one storage array into a plurality of sharing storage sets according to the arrangement strategy; and the generation module is used for respectively generating data volumes for each sharing storage set and automatically and averagely distributing the data volumes to each service node connected with the sharing storage set according to the distribution mechanism. Compared with the prior art, the invention converts the monitoring and the management on the whole large-scale cluster storage system to the monitoring and the management on the sharing storing sets so as to reduce complexity and difficulty and improve the management efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to data storage technology, in particular to a large-scale cluster storage system and its construction method. Background technique [0002] In order to meet the ever-increasing storage demand, many storage vendors have launched large-scale cluster storage systems. A large-scale cluster storage system includes a service node that provides front-end services, a storage array connected to the service node to provide external storage, and a disk cluster (Just Bundle Of Disks, JBOD) can also be mounted behind the storage array. [0003] Although this large-scale cluster storage system can provide enough large-capacity storage space, under this complex storage architecture, there are a large number of back-end storage arrays, and there are many disks on each storage array, making the number of disks Very large (hundreds or even tens of thousands of disks), this complex storage structure brings great difficulties to disk management in ...
