Method and apparatus for failure recovery of storage device
Techniques perform failure recovery of a storage device. The techniques involve: determining, based on failure data indicating at least one failed disk, whether the at least one failed disk comprises a system disk associated with an extent pool of the storage device, the extent pool being built based on system disks and user disks; in response to determining that the at least one failed disk comprises a system disk, rebuilding the user data of the system disk to one or more further disks associated with the extent pool; and in response to the system disk being replaced with an updated system disk, restoring the rebuilt user data from the one or more further disks to the updated system disk, an association of the system disk with the extent pool being maintained until the system disk is replaced by the updated system disk.
