Abstract
Techniques for managing a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) involve detecting an abnormality of a storage device in a RAID. The techniques further involve resetting the storage device in response to detecting the abnormality. The techniques further involve storing an address of a write operation for the RAID within a preset time period, so as to rebuild the RAID in the case that the storage device is recovered within the preset time period. Accordingly, temporary errors of the RAID can be efficiently handled, the number of downtime of the RAID caused by the storage device or the back end can be reduced, and computing resources and time required to rebuild the RAID can be significantly reduced.
