The information storage system of an aspect of the present invention includes a first differential data storage area which stores differential data of a higher volume from a first point of time to a second point of time, a lower snapshot manager which provides a lower snapshot at the second point of time of the higher volume, and a second differential data storage area which stores differential data of the higher volume after the second point of time. The higher snapshot manager acquires a plurality of generations of higher snapshots from the lower snapshot and the data in the first differential data storage area and acquires a plurality of generations of higher snapshots from the data of the higher volume and the data in the second differential data storage area.

A computer system comprising storage devices having different characteristics, a client computer, and a file access controller managing the storage devices with the HSM is disclosed. The file access controller provides a normal directory tree and a virtual directory tree, according to the configuration, and provides a first file stored in a first storage device through the normal directory tree and the virtual directory tree. And, the file access controller switches providing of a second file stored in a second storage device, depending on a used directory tree, which is used by the at least one client computer, and which is the normal directory tree or the virtual directory tree. Examples of the switch are about accessibility of the second file and recall processing of the second file.

A lighting apparatus is provided which includes a drive section which applies electric current to a light source which is a semiconductor element emitting light with application of electric current, at least one heat sink which is mounted with the light source and transfers heat generated by the emission of the light source, and a temperature measurement section which is mounted to the heat sink and measures temperature of the heat sink which is used for estimating temperature of the light source. The light source and the drive section are mounted to the same heat sink or to the heat sinks which are thermally coupled to each other.

The storage system eliminates inconsistency between a stub, and a file data storage location indicated by the stub. In a storage system that executes HSM using stubs, information relating to a higher tier, which is a data migration source, is recorded during data migration. The stub in the higher tier is correctly restored using the higher-tier information thus recorded. The stub is restored, and inconsistency between information in the HSM layers is resolved.

A storage system including: a storage device for storing a file; a plurality of file systems for managing the file; and a plurality of NAS servers that control access from a client to the file systems via a global namespace formed by grouping local namespaces for the one or more file systems; wherein, each NAS server includes a memory to store global namespace management information including global paths of the file systems; one NAS server of the NAS servers accepts a request to obtain snapshots of the file systems from external of the storage system; the one NAS server instructs itself and the other NAS servers to obtain snapshots of the file systems; the one NAS server and the other NAS servers obtain the snapshots of the file systems, and inform the one NAS server of snapshot identifiers and of local paths of the snapshots; the one NAS server makes snapshot management information including global paths of the snapshots based on each of the snapshot identifiers received from the other NAS servers and each of the global paths of file systems corresponding to the snapshots, included in the namespace management information so that both the global paths of the file systems and the global paths of the snapshots are configured on the same global namespace simultaneously, with a directory configuration of the snapshots being same in configuration layout as a directory configuration of the file systems; and the one NAS server informs the other NAS servers of the snapshot management information.

In a storage system that includes two or more file servers each including an arbitrary number of operating virtual file servers, a management server: holds a load information table regarding a load on each virtual file server for each time period and redundancy information table for the storage system; judges, with reference to the load information table and redundancy information table, whether or not the loads on the virtual file servers can be handled by a smaller number of file servers than the number of currently-operating file servers; selects, if the judgment result is positive, a power-off target file server and makes another file server fail over a virtual file server in the power-off target file server; and turns off the power-off target file server.

The present invention provides product delivery deadline compliance and increased worker training efficiency. A worker assignment scheme creation section of a worker assignment device creates a worker assignment scheme and calculates a job completion time for each process step of each product in accordance with a worker assignment rule. An evaluation value calculation section calculates evaluation values concerning delivery deadline compliance and worker training in accordance with processing results produced by the worker assignment scheme creation section. A worker assignment priority change section changes the worker assignment rule in accordance with the evaluation values and target values therefor. The above process is repeated a number of times to produce plural worker assignment schemes, which are compared in accordance with the evaluation values concerning delivery deadline compliance and worker training. The result of comparison is eventually presented to a user.
