Abstract
Techniques for anomaly detection for a storage system involve acquiring a plurality of attribute values of a plurality of volume data block entries. Such techniques further involve clustering a first portion of the plurality of volume data block entries into a homogeneous pool based on the plurality of attribute values of the plurality of volume data block entries. Such techniques further involve determining a second portion of the plurality of volume data block entries that are not clustered into the homogeneous pool as anomalous entries. In this way, the storage system can automatically filter out volume data block entries that may be anomalous, and thus can save time for troubleshooting, thereby increasing the efficiency of resolving system faults and improving the quality of service.
