Abstract

Techniques for storage management involve determining, in response to a detection that a disk changes from an unavailable state to an available state, at least one candidate storage unit associated with the disk; acquiring historical access information about the at least one candidate storage unit, the historical information comprising information related to a write request directed to the at least one candidate storage unit when the disk is in the unavailable state; determining a target storage unit from the at least one candidate storage unit based on the historical access information; and rebuilding the target storage unit. Such techniques may, in a low-cost manner, improve rebuilding efficiency and reliability of a storage system.
