Abstract
A method for repairing a single erasure in a Reed Solomon code in a system of a plurality of n storage nodes and a controller, wherein a content of each storage node is a codeword and each node stores a vector v. The method includes identifying a failed storage node; transmitting an index of the failed storage node to each surviving storage node; multiplying the content of each node i by a j-th component of a vector that is a permutation of elements of vector v that correspond to the surviving storage nodes; determining a trace map of the result and converting the result from an m×r bit representation into a reduced representation of r bits; reconstructing the content of the failed storage node from the reduced representation of each surviving node's content; and outputting the reconstructed content of the failed storage node.
