Abstract
Techniques for storage management involve: in response to a first disk becoming offline and remaining offline until a first time point, selecting a second storage slice in a second disk as a backup storage slice for a first storage slice in the first disk, the first storage slice being one of slices forming a redundant array of independent disks (RAID), the slices being located in different disks. The techniques further involve: writing, between the first time point and a second time point, data to be written into the first storage slice in the RAID to the second storage slice, the second time point being later than the first time point. The techniques further involve: in response to the first disk remaining offline until the second time point, replacing the first storage slice in the RAID with the second storage slice. Such techniques may improve performance of a RAID-based storage system.
