Method, device, and program product for selecting rebuild destination in storage system
In techniques for selecting a rebuild destination in a storage system, a failed stripe group associated with a failed extent group in a failed storage device among storage devices is detected. A group of normal storage devices other than the failed storage device is determined. Regarding a normal storage device in the group of normal storage devices, a first count for the normal storage device is obtained, the first count representing a number of failed stripes which are allowed to be rebuilt to the normal storage device in the failed stripe group. Based on the first count, a destination storage device is selected from the group of normal storage devices for rebuilding a failed stripe in the failed stripe group. During rebuild, a destination for rebuilding the failed stripe may be effectively selected, and extents in reserved space in the storage system may be more fully utilized.
