Abstract

See full text

A method of calculating single and dual parity for a networked array of storage elements is presented. The method includes deriving a first set of n relationships where each of the first set of n relationships consists of an XOR statement equaling zero. Each of the first set of n relationships contains n data symbols from n storage elements and one parity symbol from a first set of parity symbols. The method also includes deriving a second set of n+1 relationships where each of the second set of n+1 relationships consists of an XOR statement equaling zero, containing at least n-1 data symbols from at least n-1 storage elements and one parity symbol from a second set of parity symbols. Using both the first and second sets of derived relationships, scripts are generated to resolve unresolved symbols resulting from possible single-and dual-storage element failure combinations.
