Abstract

A computer is programmed to identify failures and perform recovery of data. Specifically, in several embodiments, the computer is programmed to automatically check integrity of data in a storage structure to identify a set of failures related to the storage structure. The computer is further programmed in some embodiments to identify, based on one failure in the set of failures, a group of repairs to fix that one failure. Each repair in the group of repairs is alternative to another repair in the group. The computer is also programmed in some embodiments to execute at least one repair in the group of repairs, so as to generate corrected data to fix the one failure. In certain embodiments, the corrected data is stored in non-volatile storage media of the computer.
