[B]raid 5 是n+1的冗余, 就是说6块盘使用5块的容量, 数据和校验平均的写入6块盘, 如果一块盘失效可以用其它5块盘的数据和校验在新盘上恢复信息. 所以如果同事有两块盘失效,那么整个储存的信息就全部丢失!, 由于硬盘越多同时有两块失效的机会就越大所以一般raid5 不要超过6块盘! 有些raid支持n+1+1方式, 就是提供第七块热备份盘, 就是说当array中的一个失效时立即在热备份的盘上恢复失效盘的信息, 增加可靠性. [/B]
好,不过我补充一下关于Hot Spares(热备份)的相关资料,HP的NetRAID Controller Configuration Guide中是这样描述Hot Spares的:
==============================================
A hot spare is a powered-on,stand-by disk drive that is ready for use should another disk drive fail.When a disk fails,the HP NetRAID firmware can automatically rebuild the data from the failed disk onto the hot spare. The system administrator can then replace the failed disk and designate the replacement as the new hot spare disk.Until a rebuild occurs,a hot spare does not contain user data.
There are two types of hot spares:
@ A global hot spare is used if a disk in any array fails.
@ A dedicated hot spare is reserved for use by a single array.
==============================================
由于时间关系,我就不翻译了,那位朋友有时间的话可以翻译一下,这段文字对理解Hot Spare很有好处! |
