Simultaneous Disk Failures

Here's a question just from a point of view to understand how the technology works.

If there is one global hotspare & multiple disk failures at the same time (t=t1), what policy or technique decides which RAID group gets the hot spare ?

Thanks,

nal

    The raid group that fails first will get the hot spare - at the microsecond range, one will always be first.
