Method, electronic device and computer program product for data processing
Techniques for data processing involve: determining, from a disk array, a target disk used for data reconstruction of the disk array; and sending, to an indicating apparatus associated with the target disk, an indication that the target disk is used for the data reconstruction. In this way, such techniques can indicate to the user that the target disk is being used for data reconstruction to remind the user not to remove or move the target disk, thereby ensuring completion of the data reconstruction. Such a technique may improve data storage equipment operation by preventing user interference.
1. A method for data processing, comprising:
determining, from a disk array, a target disk used for data reconstruction of the disk array;
sending, to an indicating apparatus associated with the target disk, an indication that the target disk is used for the data reconstruction,
wherein sending the indication comprises sending the indication to the indicating apparatus, so that the indicating apparatus performs a first operation to indicate that the target disk is used for the data reconstruction,
wherein the first operation comprises turning on the indicating apparatus and switching colors at a predetermined frequency, and
wherein switching colors at the predetermined frequency includes switching, by the indicating apparatus, between a first color and a second color at the predetermined frequency, the second color being different from the first color; and
sending, to the indicating apparatus associated with the target disk, a second indication that the target disk is not used for the data reconstruction,
wherein sending the second indication comprises sending the second indication to the indicating apparatus so that the indicating apparatus performs a second operation to indicate that the target disk is not used for the data reconstruction, and
wherein the second operation comprises turning on the indicating apparatus and keeping displaying a third color different from each of the first color and the second color.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the target disk comprises:
obtaining state identifiers for a plurality of disks in the disk array, the state identifiers indicating operation states of the plurality of disks; and
determining, based on the state identifiers and from the plurality of disks, the target disk used for the data reconstruction, the state identifier of the target disk indicating that the target disk is performing a data reconstruction operation.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining that the target disk completes the data reconstruction.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising:
setting a state identifier of the target disk to indicate that the target disk operates normally.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indicating apparatus comprises at least one of a lamp and a display screen.
6. An electronic device, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory storing computer program instructions, and the processor running the computer program instructions in the memory to control the electronic device to perform actions comprising:
determining, from a disk array, a target disk used for data reconstruction of the disk array;
sending, to an indicating apparatus associated with the target disk, an indication that the target disk is used for the data reconstruction,
wherein sending the indication comprises sending the indication to the indicating apparatus, so that the indicating apparatus performs a first operation to indicate that the target disk is used for the data reconstruction,
wherein the first operation comprises turning on the indicating apparatus and switching colors at a predetermined frequency, and
wherein switching colors at the predetermined frequency includes switching, by the indicating apparatus, between a first color and a second color at the predetermined frequency, the second color being different from the first color; and
sending, to the indicating apparatus associated with the target disk, a second indication that the target disk is not used for the data reconstruction,
wherein sending the second indication comprises sending the second indication to the indicating apparatus, so that the indicating apparatus performs a second operation to indicate that the target disk is not used for the data reconstruction, and
wherein the second operation comprises turning on the indicating apparatus and keeping displaying a third color different from each of the first color and the second color.
7. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein determining the target disk comprises:
obtaining state identifiers for a plurality of disks in the disk array, the state identifiers indicating operation states of the plurality of disks; and
determining, based on the state identifiers and from the plurality of disks, the target disk used for the data reconstruction, the state identifier of the target disk indicating that the target disk is performing a data reconstruction operation.
8. The electronic device of claim 6 , the actions further comprising:
determining that the target disk completes the data reconstruction.
9. The electronic device of claim 8 , the actions further comprising:
setting a state identifier of the target disk to indicate that the target disk operates normally.
10. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the indicating apparatus comprises at least one of a lamp and a display screen.
11. A computer program product having a non-transitory computer readable medium which stores a set of instructions to perform data processing; the set of instructions, when carried out by computerized circuitry, causing the computerized circuitry to perform a method of:
determining, from a disk array, a target disk used for data reconstruction of the disk array;
sending, to an indicating apparatus associated with the target disk, an indication that the target disk is used for the data reconstruction,
wherein sending the indication comprises sending the indication to the indicating apparatus, so that the indicating apparatus performs a first operation to indicate that the target disk is used for the data reconstruction,
wherein the first operation comprises turning on the indicating apparatus and switching colors at a predetermined frequency, and
wherein switching colors at the predetermined frequency includes switching, by the indicating apparatus, between a first color and a second color at the predetermined frequency, the second color being different from the first color; and
sending, to the indicating apparatus associated with the target disk, a second indication that the target disk is not used for the data reconstruction,
wherein sending the second indication comprises sending the second indication to the indicating apparatus, so that the indicating apparatus performs a second operation to indicate that the target disk is not used for the data reconstruction, and
wherein the second operation comprises turning on the indicating apparatus and keeping displaying a third color different from each of the first color and the second color.
