Abstract

A method for execution by a storage network processor starts by monitoring a plurality of storage network storage nodes to determine whether a storage node requires maintenance. The method continues by determining one or more maintenance tasks for the storage node and updating a status of the storage node to indicate that the storage node is in a maintenance mode. The method then continues by facilitating execution of the one or more maintenance tasks, capturing any resulting maintenance task results and determining whether a maintenance task of the one or more maintenance tasks has generated an exception. Finally, in response to a determination that a maintenance task has generated an exception, the method continues by transmitting a message indicating the exception to a storage network entity.
