Abstract:
Techniques provide a storage management mechanism for flushing a page out of cache. The techniques involve obtaining recently used (RU) information of cache. The cache includes volumes, each of which includes a plurality of pages. The RU information indicates at least part of the volumes, and an unaccessed time length of pages in the at least part of the volumes exceeds a threshold time length. The techniques further involve: determining, based on a total number of pages to be flushed out of the cache and the RU information, a number of pages to be flushed out of the cache from the at least part of the volumes. The techniques further involve flushing, based on the determined number, pages in the at least part of the volumes. Accordingly, cache efficiency can be increased, and the overall performance of the disk array can be increased accordingly.
