Abstract
An apparatus comprises at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory; the at least one processing device being configured to: obtain a set of rebuild rate parameters for a given storage device from a storage array comprising a plurality of storage devices; and dynamically regulate a rebuild rate associated with a rebuild process for the given storage device based on the set of rebuild rate parameters obtained from the storage array for the given storage device. For example, the set of rebuild rate parameters include a rebuild capacity parameter and a rebuild time parameter.
