    Abstract: Acquiring a snapshot of a logical volume involves generating snapshot-related catalog information including at least a location for storing actual data in the snapshot and a reference destination for identifying another snapshot in parent-child relation to the snapshot, and storing the actual data in the snapshot to the physical storage device and/or to the cloud service. In a case where at least one of a plurality of snapshots is to be designated and restored, catalog information is referenced to identify the storage location of the actual data and acquire the actual data stored in the physical storage device and the actual data not stored in the physical storage device from the cloud service.

    Abstract: A primary storage system reads a plurality of journal data, and performs collective compression that is compression of data that is at least a part of the plurality of pieces of journal data in the plurality of journals and is larger than a size of one journal data. The collectively compressed data, which is a plurality of pieces of journal data subjected to collective compression, is a transfer target from the primary storage system to the secondary storage system. The journal is journal data and metadata including a write order of the journal data and associated with the journal data. The journal data is a copy of data written in the primary volume. The secondary storage system acquires a plurality of pieces of journal data by decompressing one or more pieces of collectively compressed data, and writes the plurality of pieces of journal data to the secondary volume.

    Abstract: Disclosed are a motor control apparatus, a motor drive apparatus and a device that uses the same, with which, even if the electrical angular frequency is high, it is possible to detect a motor current fundamental wave component with high accuracy and to perform drive control on a motor in a stable manner. On the basis of a speed command (ω*) and a detected value (Iuvw) for motor current, this motor control apparatus creates a control signal (PWM) for controlling a motor (4) and comprises: a phase current detection means which detects the phase current of the motor; and a fundamental wave component extraction means (5) which extracts a fundamental wave component for the motor phase current detected by the phase current detection means. The fundamental wave component extracted by the fundamental wave component means is used as the detected value for motor current to create the control signal.
