Description

A kind of storage system management method and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to the memory system technologies field, refer to a kind of storage system management method and device especially.
Background technology
Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disc (RAID, Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) technology is the technology that the hard disk the most widely of employing at present promotes memory property and data security.Say that simply the RAID technology is exactly to utilize the combination of a plurality of hard disks to be linked to be an array, realize reading and writing data in magnetic disk, improve data write speed and security thereby reach in quick, accurate and safe mode.The major function of RAID is to improve the availability and the memory capacity of network data, and data are distributed on a plurality of disks selectively, thereby improves the data throughout of total system.
What the data organization mode of RAID adopted is subregion, piecemeal and band.Wherein, subregion is a storage block that the address on the disk is continuous, and a disk can be divided into a plurality of subregions, and the size of each subregion can not wait, and is also referred to as logic magnetic disc sometimes; A branch is distinguished into a plurality of equal and opposite in directions, the adjacent piece in address, and these pieces are called piecemeal, and piecemeal is the element of band, and logic magnetic disc is the address that unit arrives the map addresses of logic magnetic disc member's disk with the piecemeal; Band is the set of the relevant piecemeal in the position on the different subregions, is the unit that organizes the piecemeal on the different subregions.
The redundancy of RAID is divided into the redundant and verification redundancy of mirror image.Wherein, the mirror image redundancy is a simple device virtualization technology, each read-write operation all can be carried out on two disks, and it is the same that two disks look like a disk, makees a copy (being mirror image) in addition and is stored on another disk writing on the data on the disk.When mirror image data is carried out read operation, can from two disks, read simultaneously, read performance, but when carrying out write operation, write simultaneously in two disks, so write performance descend thereby improved.The verification redundancy is to use checking algorithm that the data on the same band are carried out verification, proof test value is write disk, when certain data block in the band is damaged, by other data blocks and the proof test value of same band, again calculate impaired data, thereby reach redundant effect.
At present, the array type of main RAID has JBOD, RAID0, RAID1, RAID5, RAID10 etc.Redundancy difference between the various RAID types, performance also there are differences, and operating factor of memory space is also different, therefore for the business of different read write attributes, needs to use the RAID of different types to reach optimization in Properties.Table 1 is the comparison of various types of RAID:
Type RAID0 RAID1 RAID10 RAID5
Disk is counted requirement Greater than 2 2 Even number greater than 4 Greater than 3
Data protection Do not have Allow a disk failures in each RAID1 array Allow a disk failures in each RAID10 subarray Allow 1 disk failures
Read performance Very high Very high High High
Type RAID0 RAID1 RAID10 RAID5
Write performance Very high Medium Medium Medium
Degradation is read performance Do not have Medium High Low
The degradation write performance Do not have Medium High Low
Space availability ratio 100% 50% 50% 67%-94%
Remarks RAID0 does not provide redundancy feature, but it but provides remarkable throughput performance Performance does not improve, and descends to some extent Do mirror image earlier and do striping then, both improved the readwrite performance of system, the data redundancy protection is provided again Raid10 and raid5 are suitable in the read operation, but on write performance, especially small letter (block size is less as 1KB) performance is poorer than raid10
Table 1
At present, the step of the storage resources of application server access storage system is as follows in the existing scheme:
Step 1 is selected disk, selected RAID type, and according to selected RAID type establishment array;
Step 2 is created logical storage resources on array, and the logical storage resources of being created is distributed to different application servers;
Here, logical storage resources is made up of band, and as LUN of the prior art etc., the logical storage resources that it is assigned to for application server is exactly its hard disk, and also having only its logical storage resources that is assigned to is as seen exercisable to this application server.
Step 3, the logical storage resources that application server access distributed is read and write it.
As seen in the existing scheme, before creating logical storage resources, must create RAID, on RAID, create then corresponding to different application server logical storage resources.Yet different application servers is to the requirement difference of storage, as performance requirement very big difference is just arranged to reliability, in addition, because the difference of the read write attribute of miscellaneous service, also there is very big difference in the performance performance of running different business on the Different Logic storage resources of the RAID of same type.
Therefore, the RAID in the existing storage system can not provide the preferable performance service for application server.

Embodiment
Fig. 1 is the process flow diagram of a kind of storage system management method of the embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 1, this method may further comprise the steps:
Step 101 is preserved the characteristic information of dissimilar Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disc RAID.
In this step, the characteristic information of RAID can comprise: the disk number that the read write attribute of RAID, the space loss of RAID, RAID are included and the relation of array performance etc.For example aforesaid table 1 promptly can be as the characteristic information table of dissimilar RAID in the embodiment of the invention.
The characteristic information of dissimilar RAID in this step can be imported storage system by administrator hand, also can be collected automatically by storage system.
Step 102 is selected disk to form array in storage system, and create logical storage resources respectively for different application servers on array.
In this step, select disk to form an array from storage system, this array is not also specified the RAID type.What can decide according to actual conditions as for selecting a disk to form an array, for example, according to the RAID characteristic information shown in the table 1, because the disk request number of RAID 10 is an even number and can not odd number, therefore select the even number disk to form array in order to take into account RAID 10, if actual conditions are not consider RAID 10 certainly, also can select the odd number disk to form array; Perhaps other conditions that need consider can be as the foundation of the number of disks of determining the composition array in addition.
In this step, can also carry out initialization to all disks of forming array, the sector that is about to form all disks of array all writes 0.
Fig. 2 is the synoptic diagram of an initialized disk array in the embodiment of the invention.In Fig. 2, selected 4 physical disks to form an array.
In this step, after selected disk is formed array, on array, create logical storage resources respectively for the different application server.Here logical storage resources is that logical storage resources is made up of band with the result of the storage space on the array after vertically dividing, as LUN of the prior art etc.At this moment, also logical storage resources is not really distributed to corresponding application server, just carrying out logic planning.
In this step, when creating logical storage resources, can also specify the basic demand of logical storage resources,, behind the array degradation, whether allow to convert to nonredundancy array etc. as whether needing redundancy to storage.
Fig. 3 is a kind of schematic layout pattern of the logical storage resources in the embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 3, in this synoptic diagram, be respectively three application server A, B and C and created logical storage resources A, logical storage resources B and logical storage resources C.This is in inventive embodiments, can on array, create the logical storage resources of corresponding size according to the size of the required storage space of application service for it, for example, when the size of a band is 1G, if application server A needs the storage space of 4G, then can create the logical storage resources A that forms by 4 bands for application server A.
Step 103, for each logical storage resources, this logical storage resources is distributed to corresponding application server, obtain the read write attribute of corresponding application server to this logical storage resources, characteristic information according to the dissimilar RAID of read write attribute that is obtained and described preservation is selected a RAID type, and with the RAID type of selected RAID type as this logical storage resources.
In this step, can obtain the read write attribute information of application server to logical storage resources in several ways, import by hand as the keeper, application server initiatively reports etc.Can also obtain the read write attribute of application server by the mode of allocation buffer in one embodiment of the invention to logical storage resources, specific as follows:
In step 102 for after the different application server creates different logical storage resources, in storage system, distribute a buffer zone for each logical storage resources, make each application server carry out reading and writing data to the buffer zone of each self-corresponding logical storage resources, like this, just can be by adding up each application server to corresponding buffer zone carried out separately reading and writing data, obtain the read write attribute to logical storage resources of each application server, as the information such as block size of read-write ratio, read-write.
In this step, the characteristic information to the dissimilar RAID of the read write attribute of logical storage resources and described preservation according to application server is that each logical storage resources is selected a RAID type, for example, if application server to the read write attribute of a logical storage resources is: the read-write ratio is 5: 1, the read-write block size is 64KB (bulk), therefore according to table 1, RAID 10 and RAID 5 can both provide preferable performance, but the space availability ratio of RAID5 is than RAID 10 height, so take all factors into consideration the RAID array type of the final RAID 5 of selection in back as this logical storage resources.
For example, in the described logical storage resources schematic layout pattern of Fig. 3, logical storage resources A is designated as that RAID 5, logical storage resources B are designated as RAID 0 and logical storage resources C is designated as RAID 10.
In this step, after the RAID type of appointment logical storage resources, corresponding application server just can write data in this logical storage resources in the past.If the front is to obtain application server to the read write attribute of logical storage resources in the mode of allocation buffer, then after the RAID type of specifying logical storage resources, also further the data in each buffer zone are transferred in the corresponding logical storage resources.
As the above-mentioned disk array of setting up earlier shown in Figure 1, on disk array, create logical storage resources then, according to application server the read write attribute of logical storage resources is selected corresponding RAID type, with the logical storage resources is the technical scheme that unit specifies the RAID type, makes the application server of different business can both obtain readwrite performance preferably.
In embodiments of the present invention, be different application server assignment logic storage resources according to scheme shown in Figure 1, and after specifying the RAID type, can also change the RAID type of counterlogic storage resources according to the change of the read write attribute of application server.
Fig. 4 is the process flow diagram of having specified the logical storage resources change RAID type of RAID type in the embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 4, may further comprise the steps:
Step 401 when trigger condition satisfies, is analyzed the read write attribute of specifying on the logical storage resources, promptly analyzes and specifies the read write attribute of the pairing application server of logical storage resources to this logical storage resources.
In this step, described trigger condition is: the RAID degradation in this appointment logical storage resources, perhaps specified the read write attribute on this logical storage resources of timing analysis when creating this appointment logical storage resources, and timing arrives.More than one of two kinds of conditions satisfy, then the read write attribute on this logical storage resources is analyzed.
Step 402 judge to specify the pairing application server of logical storage resources that whether the read write attribute of this appointment logical storage resources is complementary with the RAID type of this appointment logical storage resources, is execution in step 401 then, otherwise execution in step 403.
Step 403, according to this correspondence application server the characteristic information of the read write attribute of specifying logical storage resources and the dissimilar RAID that preserved is new RAID type of this appointment logical storage resources selection, and judge whether storage space required when the RAID type conversion will specify logical storage resources is selected new RAID type is enough, be execution in step 404 then, otherwise execution in step 401.
In this step, because various dissimilar RAID are to the utilization factor difference of disk, therefore when changing the RAID type, the RAID that utilization factor is high needs extra application storage space when being converted to the low RAID of utilization factor, if application is less than extra storage space then can not change.
Step 404 is selected new RAID type with the RAID type conversion of this appointment logical storage resources.
Be that example describes the RAID type conversion with the logical storage resources A among Fig. 3 below:
Fig. 5 is the synoptic diagram before the logical storage resources A conversion RAID type in the embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 5, the RAID type before the logical storage resources A conversion is RAID 5, and D represents data in the data of its storage, and P represents proof test value, promptly improves safety of data with the verification redundant fashion.But in the read write attribute of the application server A on the current logical storage resources A a lot of small letters are arranged, performance is performed poor on RAID5, need be RAID 10 with the type conversion of logical storage resources A therefore.Because the space availability ratio of RAID 5, therefore needs extra application storage space than the space availability ratio height of RAID 10.Fig. 6 is the synoptic diagram after the logical storage resources A conversion RAID type in the embodiment of the invention.As can be seen from Figure 6, RAID 10 improves safety of data with the mirror image redundant fashion.
In the prior art, if application server changes to the visit read write attribute of logical storage resources, and the RAID at this logical storage resources place is to the read write attribute incompatibility after changing, the performance performance is bad, when needing to adjust, perhaps when the array degradation, there is not for the moment the disk that can change again, the influence of the readwrite performance of business when also very big, is needed to seek a RAID who satisfies current read write attribute, then by the keeper with this resource migration to new array.And according to scheme shown in Figure 4, read write attribute at application server changes, or array when degradation, do not need the RAID of resource migration to other, but directly be unit conversion RAID type with the logical storage resources, make the best performanceization of logical storage resources of storage system, and during the array type conversion, the space that only relates to the logical storage resources correspondence, thus switching time relatively be will significantly reduce the time that unit changes with the whole magnetic disk.
Because the array type conversion can influence performance, therefore the keeper can also specify this logical storage resources according to actual conditions whether needs carry out read write attribute analysis and RAID type conversion in the read-write process when creating logical storage resources, and can specify and when change.
In embodiments of the present invention, according to scheme shown in Figure 1 is different application server assignment logic storage resources, and after specifying the RAID type, can also be according to the actual requirements, the array type of conversion logic storage resources is to reach the purpose of dynamic release storage space.
Fig. 7 is second process flow diagram of having specified the logical storage resources change RAID type of RAID type in the embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 7, may further comprise the steps:
Step 701 when specifying the free memory deficiency in the logical storage resources, triggers the read write attribute analysis of the corresponding application server of this logical storage resources to this logical storage resources.
In this step, the free memory in specifying logical storage resources is during less than preset value, and for example free memory is specified 5% o'clock of logical storage resources less than this, analyzes the read write attribute on this appointment logical storage resources.
Step 702, according to this correspondence application server the characteristic information of the dissimilar RAID of the read write attribute of specifying logical storage resources and preservation is judged whether to exist the RAID type that can save storage space, be then, execution in step 703, otherwise, this appointment logical storage resources is not carried out the processing of RAID type conversion, and return execution in step 701.
In this step, when selecting to save the RAID type of storage space, with due regard to whether performance is suitable.
Step 703 is the described RAID type that can save storage space with specifying the RAID type conversion of logical storage resources, thereby reaches the purpose of Free up Memory.
For example: the current RAID type of logical storage resources C is RAID 10, and the read write attribute on it is the bulk read-write, therefore use RAID5 also can provide suitable performance, and the space availability ratio of RAID 5 is greater than RAID 10, if therefore this moment the storage system insufficient space, then can select logical storage resources C is converted to RAID 5.
Scheme shown in Figure 7 can be under the prerequisite that as far as possible reduces Effect on Performance, and the realization storage system is carried out the release of storage space automatically.
