Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computer system for identifying, by a computing device, a first amount of storage space reserved by RAID for a RAID rebuild of a failed drive. A second amount of the storage space reserved by a file system may be identified, wherein the storage space may be shared between the RAID and the file system. The RAID rebuild of the failed drive may be performed. The first amount of the storage space may be allocated to the RAID from the second amount of the storage space reserved by the file system.
