  4. Outline • Background • Hybrid Recovery Approach for Single Failure • Row-Diagonal Optimal Recovery (RDOR) for Single Disk Failure • A Recovery Scheme with Minimum Disk Reads • Balancing Disk Reads • Optimizing Memory Usage • Performance Evaluation • Summary 4/60

  5. Remark: • This work can be applied to two RAID-6 codes, RDP and EVENODD. • This talk takes RDP as an example. 5/60

  6. RDP Code • In a form of a (p1)×(p+1) matrix, p is a prime number. • The first p1 columns are information columns. • The last two are parity columns (row parity, diagonal parity). • Note: With RDP code,all information data is recoverable when any two disks fail. Row parity d0,4= d0,0 d0,1 d0,2 d0,3 Diagonal parity d0,5= d0,0 d2,3 d3,2 d1,4 Missing Diagonal 6/60

  7. Outline of our work • Problem: The recovery of single disk failure in RDP coded systems • Motivation: RDP code tolerates two disk failures, but the probability of single disk failure is much higher than double disk failures. • Contributions: • Give the lower bound of disk reads • Propose a recovery scheme, s.t. • Disk reads matches the lower bound, reduced by 1/4. • Balancing disk reads • Minimum extra memory usage: (p1)/2 blocks • XOR operations: No more than conventional scheme 7/60

  8. A Naive Recovery Scheme for Single Disk Failure of RDP Code –– Case(1) • Case 1: Single information disk fails • Row parity disk and other information disks are used for the recovery. Disk6 d0,1 d1,1 d2,1 d3,1 The recovery of Disk 1 8/60

  9. A Naive Recovery Scheme for Single Disk Failure of RDP Code –– Case(2) • Case 2: Single parity disk fails • The recovery is equivalent to the parity encoding Disk6 d0,5 d1,5 d2,5 d3,5 The recovery of diagonal parity disk 9/60

  10. Features of the Naive Recovery Scheme • Only uses single parity column for single disk failure recovery, however, there are two parity columns in the array. • (p1)2 symbols are read from the disks for the recovery. 10/60

  11. Questions • Whether the disk reads can be reduced for the recovery of single disk failure? • What iftwo parity disks are used for single disk failure recovery? 11/60

  12. Some Benefits from Reducing Disk Reads • Speeding up the recovery • Relieving system bus load • Relieving disk load • Enhancing user’s service performance • Saving disk energy • … 12/60

  13. Outlines • Background • A Hybrid Recovery Approach for Single Failure • Row-Diagonal Optimal Recovery (RDOR) for Single disk Failure • A Recovery Scheme with Minimum Disk Reads • Balancing Disk Reads • Optimizing Memory Usage • Performance Evaluation • Summary 13/60

  14. Row Parity or Diagonal Parity? • Either row parity or diagonal parity can be used to recover an erasure symbol d0,1 can be recovered by row parity d0,1 can also be recovered by diagonal parity 14/60

  15. Notes: There are 4 overlapping symbols which need to be readtwice. If the 4 overlapping symbols are per-stored in memory, the number of disk reads is reduced to 164=12<16. A Hybrid Recovery Approach for SingleDisk Failure • Using diagonal parity to recover d0,1; • Using diagonal parity to recover d1,1; • Using row parity to recover d2,1; • Using row parity to recover d3,1. Overlapping symbols 15/60

  16. Consideration of Hybrid Recovery Approach • By using memory read instead of disk read • The recovery process will be speeded up Note: Memory read is 100 times faster than disk read • Communication load of the storage system will be reduced • During the recovery, the more overlapping symbols, the fewer symbols to be read from disks. • Questions • What is the lower bound of disk reads for single disk failure recovery? • How to design a recovery scheme which matches this lower bound? 16/60

  17. Outlines • Background • A Hybrid Recovery Approach for Single Failure • Row-Diagonal Optimal Recovery (RDOR) for Single Failure • Recovery Scheme with Minimum Disk Reads • Balancing Disk Reads • Optimizing Memory Usage • Performance Evaluation • Summary 17/60

  18. Diagonal parity Row parity Row Parity Sets • Ri= {di,k|0  k  p1}-----the i-throw parity set. E.g. R0={d0,0, d0,1, d0,2, d0,3, d0,4}. • Each symbol in Rican be recovered by other symbols inRi. Because d0,4=d0,0d0,1d0,2d0,3 , so d0,1=d0,0d0,2d0,3d0,4 18/60

  19. Row parity Diagonal parity Diagonal Parity Sets • Dj= {di,k|(i+k) mod p = j, 0  i  p2, 0  k  p} is the j-thdiagonal parity set. E.g. D1={d1,0, d0,1, d3,3, d2,4, d1,5} • Each symbol in Djcan be recovered by other symbols inDj. d0,1=d1,0d3,3d2,4d1,5 19/60

  20. Overlapping Symbols • There is just one common (named overlapping) symbol between each pair of Ri and Dj. e.g. R1∩D3={d1,2} R1 D3 20/60

  21. Special Cases of Parity Sets Only belong to their row parity sets Only belong to their diagonal parity sets • Disk p can only be recovered by diagonal parity. • This work only consider the recovery of Disk k, with k ≠ p. 21/60

  22. Recovery Combination • A combination of parity sets (Ri, … , Dj) is corresponding to a recovery scheme. • E.g. Using recovery combination (D1, D2, R2, R3) to recover Disk 1. 22/60

  23. Recovery Combination • A combination of parity sets (Ri, … , Dj) is corresponding to a recovery scheme. • E.g. Using recovery combination (D1, D2, R2, R3) to recover Disk 1. • Using D1 to recover d0,1; 23/60

  24. Recovery Combination • A combination of parity sets (Ri, … , Dj) is corresponding to a recovery scheme. • E.g. Using recovery combination (D1, D2, R2, R3) to recover Disk 1. • Using D1 to recover d0,1; • Using D2 to recover d1,1; 24/60

  25. Recovery Combination • A combination of parity sets (Ri, … , Dj) is corresponding to a recovery scheme. • E.g. Using recovery combination (D1, D2, R2, R3) to recover Disk 1. • Using D1 to recover d0,1; • Using D2 to recover d1,1; • Using R2 to recover d2,1; 25/60

  26. Recovery Combination • A combination of parity sets (Ri, … , Dj) is corresponding to a recovery scheme. • E.g. Using recovery combination (D1, D2, R2, R3) to recover Disk 1. • Using D1 to recover d0,1; • Using D2 to recover d1,1; • Using R2 to recover d2,1; • Using R3 to recover d3,1. 26/60

  27. Disk0 Disk1 Disk2 Disk3 Disk4 Disk5 Number of Overlapping Symbols • Assumption • Disk k is in erasure • p1 symbols d0,k, d1,k, … , dp-2,kneed to be recovered • A Recovery Scheme • t erasure symbols from diagonal parity sets • The other p1t symbols from row parity sets • Conclusion • t(p1t) = (t(p1)/2)2+(p1)2/4overlapping symbols • When t=(p1)/2, the number of overlapping symbols is maximized. 27/60

  28. Disk0 Disk1 Disk2 Disk3 Disk4 Disk5 Lower Bound of Disk Reads for SingleFailure Recovery • The maximum number of overlapping symbols is (p1)2/4. • A maximum of (p1)2/4 symbols may be reduced from disk read for recovery. • Conclusion: The lower bound of disk reads for recovery is (p1)2(p1)2/4 =3(p1)2/4. Symbols be read Overlapping symbols 28/60

  29. Read Optimal Recovery Scheme • Any recovery combination consists of (p1)/2 row and (p1)/2 diagonal parity sets is read optimal. -----Named Row-Diagonal Optimal Recovery (RDOR). • Conclusion: RDOR reduces approximately 25%disk reads compared with the naive scheme. 29/60

  30. Outlines • Background • Hybrid Recovery Approach for Single Failure • Row-Diagonal Optimal Recovery (RDOR) for Single Failure • A Recovery Scheme with Minimum Disk Reads • Balancing Disk Reads • Optimizing Memory Usage • Performance Evaluation • Summary 30/60

  31. Example: Two Read Optimal Recovery Combinations (R0, R1, R2, D3, D4, D5) (D0, D1, R2, D3, R4, R5) Disk reads: 5 4 3 3 4 5 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 Unbalanced Balanced 31/60

  32. Problem and Questions • During recovery, the disk with the most read operations may slow down the recovery. • Questions • To reduce the recovery time, what is a balanced and read-optimal recovery scheme? • It reads the same (or almost the same) number of symbols from different disks. 32/60

  33. Average Reads from Each Disk • The minimum number of disk reads for recovery is 3(p1)2/4. • To achieve read optimal, (p1)/2 symbols will be read from Disk p(diagonal parity disk). • Conclusion: Average number of symbols to be read from the other surviving disks (except for Disk k and Disk p) is [3(p  1)2/4  (p  1)/2] / (p  1)= (3p 5)/4. Note: A balanced read-optimal recovery should read (p1)/2 symbols from Disk p and (3p 5)/4 symbols from each of other disks 33/60

  34. Example: A Balanced Example (D0, D1, R2, D3, R4, R5) E.g. p=7 Total: 3(p  1)2/4 =27 Disk 7: (p  1)/2=3 Each of other disks: (27  3)/6=4 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 Balanced 34/60

  35. Recovery Sequence • Define a recovery sequence x0, x1, ... , xp2, xp1 corresponds to a recovery combination, where • xi=0 means that di,k is recovered from its row parity set • xi=1 means that di,k is recovered from its diagonal parity set • E.g. (D0, D1, R2, D3, R4, R5) 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 Additional symbol 35/60

  36. Condition of Read Optimal and Balanced Recovery Sequence • Recovery sequence {xi}0≤i≤p1 is read optimal and balanced if and only if • Read optimal x0+x1+…+xp2+xp1=(p1)/2 (1) • Symbols in missing diagonal and added row are recovered by row parity. xp1 k=xp1=0 (2) • (3p 5)/4 symbols to be read from Disk j (0≤j≤p1, j≠k) (3) 36/60
