Abstract

Disks are among the most frequently failing components in today's IT environments. Despite a set of defense mechanisms such as RAID, the availability and reliability of the system are still often impacted severely. In this paper, we present a highly accurate SMART-based analysis pipeline that can correctly predict the necessity of a disk replacement even 10-15 days in advance. Our method has been built and evaluated on more than 30000 disks from two major manufacturers, monitored over 17 months. Our approach employs statistical techniques to automatically detect which SMART parameters correlate with disk replacement and uses them to predict the replacement of a disk with even 98% accuracy.

Recommendations

Efficient disk replacement and data migration algorithms for large disk subsystems

Random data placement, which is efficient and scalable for large-scale storage systems, has recently emerged as an alternative to traditional data striping. In this report, we study the disk replacement problem (DRP) to find a sequence of disk additions ...
Energy-efficient disk replacement and file placement techniques for mobile systems with hard disks
SAC '07: Proceedings of the 2007 ACM symposium on Applied computing

Mobile systems have usually used hard disks as the secondary storage devices because of their high capacity per cost and high I/O throughput. However, their high power consumption is the main limiting factor for extending their adoptions in mobile ...
