摘要： In a computer system, to enable a second computer to take over control of copying of data within the computer system, from a first computer that normally controls copying of data.The second computer selects from a plurality of storage systems a storage system to be accessed in order to acquire sub system pair information, and acquires sub system pair information from the selected storage system. Based on the acquired sub system pair information, the second computer generates system pair information that includes copy pair information relating to a plurality of storage areas belonging to the plurality of storage systems. The second computer initially selects a storage system directly linked to the second computer, and subsequently sequentially selects a storage system based on the acquired sub system pair information.

摘要： A computer system including a first storage system connected to a first host computer, a second storage system connected to a second host computer and a third storage system connected to the first and second storage systems. The second storage system sets transfer setting before an occurrence of a failure, the transfer setting being provided with a dedicated storage area to be used for transferring data to the third storage system by asynchronous copy in response to a failure at the first host computer. Before the start of data transfer between the second storage system and third storage system to be executed after an occurrence of the failure, the second storage system checks the dedicated storage area, data transfer line and transfer setting information, and if an abnormal state is detected, this abnormal state is reported to the host computer as information attached to the transfer setting.

摘要： When migrating data stored in a storage region assigned to a volume to another storage region, the connection status of the host computer and volume is confirmed. When the host computer and volume are connected, the maximum capacity of the volume requested by the host computer is reserved so that it is exclusively secured in another storage region to which data is to be migrated, and when the host computer and volume are not connected, the current capacity of the volume is reserved so that it is exclusively secured in another storage region.

摘要： To provide a computer system in which an encryption-decryption process performed by one encryption-decryption module can be moved to the other encryption-decryption module without stopping the process for a read/write request from a host computer. The computer system has a host computer 200, and a storage system 400, 500 for storing the encrypted data in a storage area. The storage system 400 provides a storage area of the storage system 500 as the storage area of its own for accepting access from the host computer 200. In performing a process for changing for the data encrypted and stored by the destination source 500, the move destination 400 encrypts the data decrypted by the move source 500, the move source 500 further encrypts and stores the data encrypted by the move destination 400 in the move source 500, and after all the data is stored, the move source 500 decrypts and stores the further encrypted data in the block.

摘要： To provide a computer system in which the primary site administrator for managing all the sites can make the configuration of the authority to be granted beforehand for the administrator of each site to fill in for a part of its own authority, even during the absence such as at the time of disaster. The computer system includes one or more storage systems 1500 having a volume usable from a host computer 1100 and a management computer 1200 for managing the storage systems 1500, in which a plurality of users can use the same volume, wherein if a certain user makes an operation request to the volume with the copy configuration in which it is associated in source and destination with another volume, the management computer 1200 decides an operation authority to the user for the volume susceptible to the operation request, based on an attribute of the volume susceptible to the operation request, an attribute concerning the copy configuration of another volume with a still another volume, and an attribute of another volume, and suppresses the execution of the operation request, when the operation request is out of a permissible range of the operation authority.

摘要： A copy source storage controller received write data added with a time and issued from a host computer transfers the write data with the time to a copy destination storage controller. If there are a plurality of copy destination storage controllers, a representative copy destination storage controller compares times of write data copied to the plurality of copy destination storage controllers, and writes the write data in copy destination logical volumes in the sequential order of time. The representative copy destination storage controller judges that integrity of the write data is established, if a communication procedure is established with the copy destination storage controller and if the statuses of the copy source/destination logical volumes are coincident. In remote copy which guarantees integrity of write data and traverses a plurality of storage controllers, it is possible to judge at an optional time point whether integrity of write data can be guaranteed.

摘要翻译： 复制源存储控制器接收到从主计算机发出的随时间增加的写入数据，将写入数据随时间传送到复制目的地存储控制器。 如果存在多个复制目的地存储控制器，则代表性复制目的地存储控制器比较复制到多个复制目的地存储控制器的写入数据的时间，并且按顺序将写入数据写入复制目的地逻辑卷。 如果与复制目的地存储控制器建立通信过程以及复制源/目的地逻辑卷的状态是否一致，则代表性复制目的地存储控制器判断写入数据的完整性。 在保证写入数据的完整性并遍历多个存储控制器的远程复制中，可以在可选的时间点判断是否可以保证写入数据的完整性。
