How does ProxySG handle a disk removal event during operation?

The handling of a disk removal event by ProxySG is primarily focused on maintaining service continuity and optimizing system functionality. When a disk removal event occurs, the ProxySG system automatically remaps objects to the remaining disks. This automatic remapping ensures that data integrity is maintained and that the proxy can continue to serve requests effectively without significant downtime.

This capability is essential for providing resilience against hardware failures, as it allows the system to adapt dynamically to changes in its storage configuration. By redistributing the load across the remaining disks, ProxySG minimizes the risk of data loss and maintains operational efficiency, while also ensuring that users experience little to no disruption in service.

In contrast, other options suggest responses that are not aligned with ProxySG's operational design. For instance, a system reset or alerting administrators while attempting to maintain current sessions would not address the immediate need for data integrity and service continuity during a hardware failure. Moreover, transferring data to an external backup immediately might not be practical during an unexpected disk removal event and could introduce significant latency or operational disruption. Thus, the ability to remap objects to remaining disks is a critical feature that enhances the stability and reliability of the ProxySG in real-time scenarios.
