Abstract
The technology disclosed herein enhances data protection in a distributed storage system. In a particular example, a method includes determining a drive in a subject node of the distributed storage system has failed while storing first data of a data set distributed across nodes of the distributed storage system by a data protection mechanism. The method further includes broadcasting failure information indicating the data set from the subject node to other nodes of the distributed storage system. At the other nodes, in response to receiving the failure information, the method includes identifying a subset of the other nodes that also store a portion of the data set. In each identified node of the subset, the method includes identifying second data of the data set stored on a local drive and copying the second data to a different local drive to protect the data set from further drive failure.
