CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STORAGE APPARATUS

WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/035113

A1

Disclosed in the present application are a control method and apparatus for a storage apparatus. The storage apparatus comprises a controller and a storage array. The method is applied to the controller. The method comprises: when it is predicted that there is burst traffic within a first time period, increasing, before the first time period, bandwidth resources that are allocated for a garbage collection (GC) operation, wherein the burst traffic includes a first number of data processing requests, the first number being greater than the number of data processing requests to which a storage apparatus can respond per second; and executing the GC operation by using a first bandwidth resource, so as to obtain a first available storage space in a storage array, wherein the first bandwidth resource is a bandwidth resource that is allocated for the GC operation. In the solution, the execution of a GC operation is promoted before the arrival of burst traffic, such that a relatively large available storage space can be obtained, and when the burst traffic arrives, it can be ensured that there is a relatively large available storage space in a storage apparatus for responding to the burst traffic, thereby improving the stability and input/output (IO) response speed of the storage apparatus.
