In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the disclosure, the invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It is to be understood that the described embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, and not restrictive of the full scope of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, a first embodiment of a method for processing a data request in a storage system according to the present invention is described below, where the first embodiment includes:
step S101: responding to a write request sent by a client, and distributing a logic space and a physical space for data to be written according to the thin provisioning strategy.
The embodiment is applied to a storage system, which includes a client, a storage server, a first metadata node and a second metadata node, where the client is used to send a data request including but not limited to a write request, the storage server is used to store data, and the first metadata node and the second metadata node are used to store metadata, and there is no essential difference between them, and in a case of normal operation, the metadata on the first metadata node and the metadata on the second metadata node are consistent. The thin provisioning policy refers to that the storage system manages storage resources in a unified manner, and allocates the storage resources to the upper layer application as needed.
Step S102: and generating a metadata change instruction according to the logic space and the physical space.
When a client requests to write data, the metadata needs to be updated, for example, the metadata is inserted or modified, and specifically, at least the mapping relationship between the above logical space and the physical space is maintained in the metadata.
Step S103: and when the first metadata node and the second metadata node both run normally, sending the metadata change instruction to the first metadata node, so that the first metadata node executes update operation according to the metadata change instruction and synchronizes an update result to the second metadata node.
The updating operation comprises an operation of inserting target metadata or an operation of modifying pre-stored metadata into the target metadata, and the target metadata comprises a mapping relation from the logic space to the physical space.
Step S104: and when the first metadata node fails and the second metadata node normally operates, sending the metadata change instruction to the second metadata node so that the second metadata node can execute the updating operation according to the metadata instruction and backup an updating result to a preset storage space.
And only one node executes change operation according to the metadata change instruction between the first metadata node and the second metadata node, and when the node executing the change operation fails, the other node is immediately switched to. And when the other metadata node executes the change operation, the change result is stored in the preset storage space which is obtained by applying in advance, so that when the node also breaks down, the data recovery can be carried out on the metadata node according to the data in the preset storage space. It should be noted that the metadata change instruction may be sent to the first metadata node and the second metadata node at the same time, and then the two metadata nodes determine whether to execute the metadata change instruction by themselves according to the operating states of the two metadata nodes.
In addition, the metadata in the caches of the first metadata node and the second metadata node support power failure protection, that is, power failure is stored to a system disk through a BBU, and after the node failure is recovered, the metadata and user data of the power failure protection of a memory are recovered through a memory management module of a storage system, which is a first safety line.
The embodiment provides a method for processing a data request by a storage system, where the storage system includes two metadata nodes, and after a client sends a write request, a logical space and a physical space are allocated to data to be written according to an auto-thin configuration policy, and a metadata change instruction is generated. Therefore, the method aims at the storage system with the automatic thin provisioning, the metadata change instruction is processed and backed up through the mutual cooperation of the two metadata nodes, the metadata loss is avoided, and the safety of the storage system is obviously improved.
The second embodiment of the method for processing a data request by a storage system provided by the invention is described in detail below, and the second embodiment is implemented based on the first embodiment and is expanded to a certain extent on the basis of the first embodiment.
Specifically, this embodiment uses a winner-backup method to process metadata and data, that is, one of two metadata nodes in a domain is used as a winner, and the other is used as a backup. When two metadata nodes both operate normally, the two metadata nodes are in a caching mode, and when one metadata node fails and the other metadata node operates normally, the two metadata nodes are in a logging mode.
Based on the above description, the implementation process of the second embodiment is described below, and referring to fig. 2, the second embodiment includes:
step S201: and receiving a data request sent by the client.
Step S202: and judging whether the data request is a write request, if so, generating a metadata change instruction, and if not, generating a metadata query instruction.
Step S203: in the caching mode, the owner node executes change operation according to the metadata change instruction, synchronizes a change result to the backup node, and the backup node queries corresponding metadata according to the metadata query instruction.
The so-called caching mode is that the owner node processes modification operation and insertion operation of the metadata node, the query and modification result of the metadata are backed up to the backup node in a transaction mode, and the backup node forwards the metadata change instruction to the owner node for processing. Therefore, when the winner node has a problem, the backup node can continue to process the host IO and the metadata, and simultaneously trigger corresponding fault processing operations, namely, cache flushing, metadata disk dropping and the like, so as to ensure data safety.
Normally, a Caching mode is adopted, namely, the change of metadata of an owner node is backed up to a backup node in a transaction mode, so that the metadata in the caches of the two nodes are kept consistent, and when one node fails, the other node can immediately take over without data inconsistency and data loss.
Step S204: and in the logging mode, the backup node executes change operation according to the metadata change instruction and stores a change result or the metadata change instruction in a Log storage space.
When only one normally operating metadata node exists in the storage system, a winner-backup relationship cannot be formed, and data reliability is reduced, so that the embodiment sets a Logging mode, that is, an independent Log storage space is applied, metadata change instructions or updated metadata are written into the Log storage space in sequence, and after the corresponding metadata is landed on the normally operating metadata node, the Log storage resource is made invalid.
The process of converting the caching mode into the logging mode is as follows: firstly, if the fault occurs in the inner node, the operation of switching the nodes is triggered, and the processing of the metadata instruction is not influenced; and then, the bankup node detects whether the dirty data in the cache of the owner node completely falls, if not, the falling operation is triggered, so that the dirty data before the fault starts to fall, and the data safety is guaranteed. And finally, switching the chachiging mode into a Logging mode, and ensuring that only one node can receive and process IO.
If the owner node recovers normal operation after a fault occurs, data recovery is carried out according to the cache power-down protection data and the metadata recorded in the Log storage space and the data safety is guaranteed. However, at this time, the node and the bankup node do not immediately enter the caching mode, but the node and the node determine whether the dirty data of the owner node completely falls down, and whether the data of the Long storage space is updated to the owner node, and only if the dirty data and the data of the Long storage space are satisfied at the same time, the node and the node return to the caching mode again.
It can be seen that, according to the method for processing a data request by a storage system provided by this embodiment, a metadata processing mode for automatic thin provisioning is designed, security and consistency of metadata are guaranteed in a dual-control caching and single-control Logging manner, and meanwhile, a failure and recovery processing flow of the dual-control system is controlled to adapt to a failure and recovery of a dual-control node, so that when a system failure is unstable, data security of the storage system is guaranteed, reliability and processing capability of a product are improved, and competitiveness of the product is improved.

a second sending module: the metadata change instruction is sent to the second metadata node when the first metadata node fails and the second metadata node normally operates, so that the second metadata node can execute the update operation according to the metadata instruction and backup an update result to a preset storage space;
wherein the apparatus further comprises:
a request receiving module: the data processing system is used for receiving a data request sent by a client;
a request judgment module: the data processing device is used for judging whether the data request is a write request or not;
a metadata lookup module: and when the data request is not a write request and both the first metadata node and the second metadata node operate normally, searching corresponding metadata from the second metadata node according to the data request so as to determine a physical space where data corresponding to the data request is located according to the metadata.
6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the apparatus comprises:
a state parameter acquisition module: the operation state parameter is used for acquiring the operation state parameter of the first metadata node;
a fault judgment module: and the first metadata node is used for judging whether the first metadata node has a fault according to the running state parameter.
7. The apparatus of any one of claims 5-6, further comprising:
and a normal recovery judging module: the first metadata node is used for judging whether the first metadata node recovers normal operation or not;
a releasing module: and the storage device is used for synchronizing the metadata in the second metadata node to the first metadata node and releasing the preset storage space when normal operation is recovered.
8. A storage system, comprising: the system comprises a client, a storage server, a first metadata node and a second metadata node;
the client is used for sending a write request;
the storage server is used for responding to the write request, distributing a logic space and a physical space for the data to be written according to an automatic thin provisioning strategy and generating a metadata change instruction;
the first metadata node is used for executing updating operation according to the metadata change instruction when the first metadata node and the second metadata node both run normally, and synchronizing an updating result to the second metadata node, wherein the updating operation comprises an operation of inserting target metadata or an operation of modifying pre-stored metadata into the target metadata, and the target metadata comprises a mapping relation from the logic space to the physical space;
the second metadata node is used for executing the updating operation according to the metadata instruction when the first metadata node fails and normally operates per se, and backing up an updating result to a preset storage space;
the storage server is further configured to: receiving a data request sent by a client before distributing a logic space and a physical space for data to be written according to an automatic thin provisioning strategy in response to a write request sent by the client; judging whether the data request is a write request; if the metadata is not the write request, searching corresponding metadata from the second metadata node according to the data request when the first metadata node and the second metadata node both operate normally, so as to determine the physical space where the data corresponding to the data request is located according to the metadata.
