Abstract
A method of performing a full data reconstruction in a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) system with a protection pool of storage units includes determining that a physical disk of a storage cluster has been removed from service. The physical disk includes a set of physical extents and at least one physical extent of the set of physical extents is associated with an array of physical extents distributed across physical disks of the storage cluster. The method further includes transmitting a message to one or more array groups of the physical disks, to allocate replacement physical extents and assign the replacement physical extents to the array of physical extents and initiating reconstruction of data from the set of physical extents of the physical disk to the replacement physical extents.
