Abstract

Techniques for reporting defects in a flash memory back-up system include organizing backed-up data into multiple stripes of a logical block address (LBA). A stripe is a set of pages across all available flash memory devices which have the same block and page address. In response to encountering an error in a block of flash memory during back-up of a stripe of data in one or more last pages of a logical block address, the stripe of data is re-written at a page address in the next LBA and preceding LBA metadata is embedded for the stripe of backed-up data in the re-written stripe of data in the next LBA including an indication of the location of new error block in the preceding LBA.
