Abstract
Methods, apparatus, and processor-readable storage media for software-defined suspected storage drive failure identification are provided herein. An example computer-implemented method includes implementing at least one software agent in an operating system associated with at least one storage system, wherein the at least one software agent is configured to monitor and process one or more predefined storage drive attributes; obtaining, using the at least one software agent, attribute values for the one or more predefined storage drive attributes from one or more storage drives within the at least one storage system; identifying, using the at least one software agent, at least one suspected failure among the one or more storage drives by processing the obtained attribute values using algorithmic logic; and performing at least one automated action based on the at least one identified suspected failure among the one or more storage drives.
