华中科技大学硕士学位论文华中科技大学硕士学位论文IIIIAbstractEnterprise and the user pay more and more attention on the importance of data, and the system reliability has become an important factor which be considered first when enterprise select the storage equipment. The reliability of RAID storage system is ensured by using the redundancy schemes, and can tolerate a certain degree of disk failure. But when there is a big fault, such as power supply interruption, the system’s run-time data and status will not be protected. Result in data inconsistencies, or more serious economic losses.After researching and analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of using the current ways to design and implement the power-down protection system, and the running processes of the current RAID controller system in our lab, a suitable power-down protection RAID hardware and software modules are designed for handling the power interruption and improving system reliability. In this scheme, power equipment which supports power-down protection is integrated on the control card, and the power-down data protection module and power-on data recovery module are implemented with the current software modules. And according to the system configuration information management method, the CACHE data organization way and the request processing procedure, the data protection scheme and data recovery strategy are designed. Simulating the power-down signal by using software to implement the function which the power equipment provides, implementing the module in the system, and achieving the following features: protect and recovery the global configuration in the system when power-down, to ensure the systems global configuration is latest, design the storage format for dirty data in cache, storage the unfinished destage data, protect unfinished write request, recovery all data when the system is power-on after power-down interruption.System is tested by using the way of software to simulating to generate power-down interrupti
