ABSTRACT:
A method for media scan operations for storage system is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of arranging a range of sections of media of PSDs to perform media scan operations; scheduling the media scan operations; selecting a section in the range; verifying media of the selected section; determining the status of selected section; if the status is not ok, responding by proceeding with the corrective action processes, otherwise responding by selecting another section in the range to proceed with the verifying step, the determining step, and this responding step, until no more sections in the range to be verified. A storage subsystem implementing the method, a computer system comprising such storage subsystem, and a storage media having machine-executable codes stored therein for performing the method are also disclosed.
