A storage system capable of identifying all volumes to be audited is provided.Operation logs 3005 concerning the operations of volumes are associated with a time and stored in storage apparatuses 1400 and 1500, and a management computer 1100 collects information about these operation logs 3005, restores the status history of the operation logs 3005, sets, as an audit range, the operation logs 3005 including volumes with an audit period and audit target data stored therein, extracts the operation logs 3005 belonging to the audit range from the restored status history of the operation logs 3005, and transmits the extracted operation logs 3005 to a computer (requesting computer) 1000. As a result, all the audit target volumes can be identified.

Creating a plaintext index from a text that is extracted from a file presents the risk of a leak of confidential information from the created index. To address this problem, provided is a computer system which has a computer, a storage subsystem coupled to the computer, and a network coupling the computer and the storage subsystem. The computer has an interface coupled to the network, a first processor coupled to the interface, and a memory coupled to the first processor. The storage subsystem has a disk device which stores data. A storage area of the disk device is divided into a plurality of storage areas including, at least, a first storage area and a second storage area. The first processor reads a part of data stored in the first storage area, encrypts the part of data read from the first storage area when the data stored in the first storage area is judged as encrypted data, and writes the encrypted part of data in the second storage area.

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.

In a computer system that includes plural host computers and plural data storage apparatuses (storage systems) and performs, in particular, virtualization of a data storage area, unless zoning is performed correctly to activate a zone between a data storage apparatus holding a virtualized data storage area and a device holding a data storage area storing actual data, the storage area storing actual data cannot be used from the host computers. The present invention provides a mechanism for grasping a relation between the virtualized data storage area and the data storage area storing actual data, configuring a zone between data storage apparatuses holding the data storage areas as a special zone, and always activating the special zone at the time of zoning configuration. The invention further provides a mechanism for grasping a relation between the virtualized data storage area and the data storage area storing actual data, associating a zone for connecting the host computers and a first-tier data storage apparatus and a zone for connecting the first-tier data storage apparatus and a second-tier data storage apparatus, and activating a second zone according to switching activating first zone.

There is provided a computer system comprising a first storage system and a second storage system coupled to the first storage system. The first storage system provides a first storage area. The second storage system provides a second storage area. The second storage system reads and writes the requested data from and to the first storage area associated with the second storage area; specifies the first storage area associated with the second storage area from which the data is to be erased upon reception of a request for erasing the data stored in the second storage area; and transmits the request for erasing the data to the first storage system providing the specified first storage area. The first storage system erases the data stored in the specified first storage area, based on a data erasure condition included in the request for erasing the data.

A computer specifies the configuration of a first storage device by referencing first configuration information relating to the configuration of a first storage system including the first storage device, specifies one or more storage medium access performances corresponding to the first storage device by referencing the storage medium performance information, and calculates a first access performance index of the first storage device based on one or more specified storage medium access performances. The computer then references storage medium performance information and second configuration information relating to the configuration of a second storage system including a second storage device, and determines a second storage device having an access performance index that is at least equal to the calculated first access performance index.

In a computer system an object of this invention is to reduce physical resource contentions during the parallel migration of volumes. The computer system of this invention has the host computers, the storage systems and the storage management server. When parallelly migrating two or more volumes of data in the storage systems to the same number of other volumes, the storage management server selects volumes having few physical conflicts of the controllers or storage devices in the storage systems and executes the parallel migration operation.
