Abstract

See full text

Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (RAID) groups in a storage system are dynamically reconfigured by merging and splitting the RAID groups. When an indication of a change to data or system characteristics is received, disks in the RAID groups of the storage system can be reorganized to adapt to the change.
