    Abstract: A storage system includes one or more storage units, and a calculator. Each of the one or more storage units has plural physical storage devices, and a processor. The calculator has a controller that processes data inputted to and outputted from the storage unit by the processor. The storage system subjects the data to redundancy and stores the redundant data, and when a failure in which the data related to a read request cannot be read from one of the physical storage devices has occurred, reads the data from the readable physical storage device, recovers the data related to the read request, and transmits the recovered data to a request source of the read request. A process for recovering the data related to the read request from the read data can be selectively executed by the controller of the calculator and the processor of the storage unit.

    Abstract: A distributed storage system includes one or a plurality of storage units including a plurality of physical storage devices, and a plurality of computers connected to the one or plurality of storage units via a communication network. When receiving a write request for a logical volume, the computer writes write data corresponding to the write request and redundant data for making the write data redundant in a plurality of physical storage devices of the storage unit in a distributed manner, and collectively controls writing of a journal of write data for managing a write history of the write data and a journal of redundant data for managing a write history of the redundant data.

    Abstract: An object of the invention is to appropriately separate an available cluster for each user in a storage system configured by using a plurality of clusters each of which is an aggregate of nodes. A computer system includes a plurality of K8s clusters each configured by one or a plurality of K8s nodes, a storage that provides a volume, and a tenant management unit that manages the plurality of the K8s clusters and the storage. The tenant management unit creates, in the storage, a plurality of tenants respectively corresponding to the plurality of the K8s clusters. The storage, for each of the plurality of the K8s clusters, permits access from the K8s cluster to a tenant corresponding to the K8s cluster and prohibits access from the K8s cluster to a tenant not corresponding to the K8s cluster.
