Abstract

Rebuilding of storage structures within a shared storage processor of a computing environment. A rebuild of a storage structure, which is owned by an exploiter of the storage structure, is initiated. Thereafter, the storage structure is rebuilt via an operating system of the computing environment. The operating system is distinct from the exploiter owning the storage structure and lacks knowledge of the contents of the storage structure.
