Abstract
A computer implemented method for providing homogeneous recovery in a redundant memory system. The method includes receiving a notification that a memory channel has failed, where the memory channel is one of a plurality of memory channels in a memory system. New operations are blocked from starting on the memory channels in response to the notification, and any pending operations on the memory channels are completed in response to the notification. A recovery operation is performed on the memory channels in response to the completing. The new operations are started on at least a first subset of the memory channels in response to the recovery operation completing. The memory system is configured to operate with the first subset of the memory channels.
