Abstract

Recovery requests are scheduled and prioritized according to priority valuations of the minimum time to next failure relative to the minimum time to next recovery for corresponding storage data sets. The prioritization can be performed by an upper layer recovery scheduler that dispatches requests to different storage units and/or by lower layers and individual storage unit schedulers. Prioritizations can be reflected in tagging on recovery requests, as determined by a first entity, and/or determined dynamically at the point of dispatch and processing.
