    摘要: A scheduler for selecting a logical volume for scheduling pending I/O tasks for job generation. The scheduler includes a main scheduler that selects from among multiple sub-schedulers that operate according to different scheduling approaches, e.g., high priority read I/O request scheduling, urgency of non-read I/O tasks, as well as load balancing and round robin schemes. In selecting a sub-scheduler, the main scheduler considers the amount of time allocated to performing read I/O requests, as well as the level of urgency associated with the logical volumes and the disk adapter that manages those logical volumes for non-read I/O tasks.

    摘要: Described are techniques for representing and using RAID group consistency information. RAID group consistency information for a slice of data included on a device may be obtained by mapping the slice to an index. The index is one of a plurality of indices each associated with a structure indicating RAID group inconsistencies for a different portion of slices of data of the device. If the index is not associated with a structure, it may be determined that there is no RAID group inconsistency for the slice. If the index is associated with a structure, a hint bit associated with the slice may be determined wherein the hint bit encodes summary consistency information for a plurality of slices. A determination is made as to whether the hint bit is set, and, if the hint bit is not set, it is determined that there is no RAID group inconsistency for the slice.
