Abstract

Embodiments presented herein disclose adaptive techniques for scheduling self-maintenance processes. A load predictor estimates, based on a current state of a distributed storage system, an amount of resources of the system required to perform each of a plurality of self-maintenance processes. A maintenance process scheduler estimates, based on one or more inputs, an amount of resources of the distributed system available to perform one or more of the self-maintenance processes during at least a first time period. The maintenance process scheduler determines a schedule for the one or more of the self-maintenance processes to perform during the first time period, based on the estimated amount of resources required and available.
