ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a method comprises receiving, at a processor, an input/output request that designates at least one data block on a storage medium against which the input/output operation is to be executed; and altering a response to the input/output request when a scrub state data table indicates that the at least one data block designated in the input/output request is subject to an open scrub command.
