Systems and methods for sequential resilvering

Abstract:

A method of reconstructing data from a failed storage device in a storage pool includes identifying a plurality of data blocks that are stored on the failed storage device, and sorting the plurality of data blocks in an order in which the plurality of data blocks are located on the failed storage device. Each of the plurality of data blocks may be associated with an I/O operation. The method may also include grouping the I/O operations for the plurality of data blocks into sequential I/O operations based on the order in which the plurality of data blocks are located on the failed storage device, and executing the sequential I/O operations to resilver a new storage device replacing the failed storage device.
