Embodiment Construction

[0013] Various systems and methods are disclosed for automatic redundant array of independent disks (RAID) configuration. Although the systems and methods of the present disclosure are described in the context of a particular system architecture, it should be understood that the systems and methods are applicable to other architectures and organizations of hardware.

[0014] figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example system 100 configured to implement the techniques presented herein. System 100 may be any computing device including one or more memories and one or more processors (eg, server computer, laptop computer, desktop computer, etc.).

[0015] System 100 may include network interface (I / F) module 102 , processor 104 , storage system 105 and memory 108 . The components of system 100 are communicatively coupled to bus or software communication mechanism 120 for communicating with each other.

[0016] In some implementations, the software communication mechanis...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for automatic provisioning of a redundant array of independent disks (RAID). In particular, the present disclosure relates to methods including automatically determining, using one or more processors, that a first partition associated with a first storage device and a second partition associated with a second storage device are associated witha common mount point; and automatically adding, using the one or more processors, the first partition and the second partition to a RAID.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to configuring digital storage devices. In particular, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for automatic Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) configuration. Background technique [0002] A Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) combines multiple physical storage devices or partitions thereof into a single logical unit in order to provide redundancy for improved performance, improved availability, or a combination thereof. Configuring storage devices (eg, disks) and creating or modifying RAID is error-prone using existing solutions. Mistakes such as user errors entering static information are not uncommon. Therefore, a model-based approach that minimizes the amount of input and intervention a user needs to provide may be desirable. [0003] Additionally, difficulties arise when replacing a storage device that is part of a RAID, particularly when the replacement storage device is a different...
