摘要： Arrangements having multiple second storage systems which each include a restore control unit for controlling restoration processing, in which a data element in a journal stored in a journal storage area is written into a secondary logical volume, and a storage device control unit for controlling a storage device in the second storage system. The restore control unit is provided with a function for suspending the restoration processing. A first value indicating the usage condition of the journal storage area in the second storage system is obtained, and the restore control unit suspends the restoration processing in accordance with the obtained first value. The storage device control unit then executes power saving on a storage device relating to the secondary logical volume.

摘要： There is provided a data migrating method including the steps of: calculating, in a case where data stored in a volume is migrated to another volume, a required period of time for migrating the data based on a size of data to be migrated and volume configuration information on the volume in which the migrated data is stored and the volume to which the data is to be migrated; determining a start time at which the data migration starts to generate a volume migration plan; setting a priority of the generated volume migration plan; prioritizing, in a case where a periods of time during which the generated volume migration plan is executed and a period of time during which an existing volume migration plan is executed are overlapped with each other, and changing the start time of at least one of those volume migration plans having a lower priority.

摘要： When a volume belonging to a first storage tier is relocated to a second storage tier, in the event that an empty volume satisfying capacity conditions is not present in the second storage tier, an empty volume satisfying the capacity conditions within volumes belonging to a third storage tier is virtually allocated to the second storage tier, a further virtual empty volume is formed, and the volume is virtually relocated to the further virtual empty volume.

摘要： A management computer monitors an allocated capacity of a source virtual volume and an allocated capacity of a virtual pool having a storage area allocated to a destination virtual volume in a storage, judges whether the allocated capacity of the source virtual volume can be covered in the virtual pool or not, and informs the user of a result that data migration fails when the allocated capacity of the source virtual volume cannot be covered. When the allocated capacity of the source virtual volume cannot be covered, the management computer uses another storage area to increase the capacity of the virtual pool. Accordingly, when data migration is performed between the virtual volumes, capacities of physical areas allocated to the source virtual volume and the destination virtual volume can be grasped so that the data migration can be performed accurately between the source virtual volume and the destination virtual volume.

摘要： A fluid dynamic pressure bearing includes a shaft arranged along a central axis, an annular member fixed to the shaft, a sleeve, a lubricant, and a lubricating film. A stepped surface is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the shaft. The annular member preferably includes a lower surface extending radially with respect to the central axis and arranged to make contact with the stepped surface in the inner edge portion of the lower surface. The sleeve preferably includes an upper surface axially opposed to the lower surface of the annular member. The lubricant is provided between the shaft and the sleeve and between the annular member and the sleeve. The lubricating film is provided on the lower surface of the annular member at least over a region lying radially outwardly of the inner edge portion of the lower surface.
