Abstract
A method for recovering failed chunks, the method may include (i) obtaining a failure indication about a failure of a first number (X1) of failed chunks; wherein the chunks were stored in a group of disks, the group of disks is configured to store a second number (α) stripes of multiple (N) chunks, wherein each stripe comprises a first plurality (K) of data chunks and a second plurality (R) of parity chunks; wherein R exceeds and (ii) performing at least one recovery iteration until fulfilling a stop condition. Each recovery iteration of the at least one recovery iteration may include (a.i) selecting valid chunks to provide selected valid chunks, wherein a number of selected chunks is smaller than a product of a multiplication of R by α; (a.ii) retrieving valid data chunks that are relevant to the selected valid chunks; and (a.iii) attempting to reconstruct the failed chunks based on the retrieved chunks.
