A controller 2 uses a virtual logical volume 3 having an expandable volume size to perform either a remote copy or an internal copy without suspending access from a host. The virtual logical volume 3 is able to expand a volume size in units of a cylinder group 6 that have a size equivalent to 25 pages. Information for managing a copy is stored in a control area 6B inside the cylinder group 6. This enables storing of copy management information in accordance with the expanded size of the virtual logical volume.

The storage control device of the present invention uses a plurality of queues to manage cache segments which are in use, so as to retain cache segments which contain large amounts of data for long periods of time. One of the queues manages segments in which large amounts of valid data are stored. Another queue manages segments in which small amounts of valid data are stored. If the number of unused segments becomes insufficient, then a segment which is positioned at the LRU end of the other queue is released, and is shifted to a free queue. Due to the use of this other queue, it is possible to retain segments in which comparatively large amounts of data are stored for comparatively long periods of time.

The present invention provides a surface light source device capable of reducing luminance non-uniformity near point light sources and near between the point light sources adjacent to each other, and a display device of high display quality. The surface light source device includes: a plurality of LEDs arranged at a predetermined spacing; a light guide plate that emits, as a surface light, light emitted from the point light sources and entered into at least one side surface, through a light emission surface perpendicular to a light incident surface; reflecting sheets disposed respectively on a light anti-emission surface and near the LEDs in the light guide plate; and a casing having an opening part at a location corresponding to the light emission surface of the light guide plate, and holding the LEDs and the light guide plate and the reflecting sheets. The surface light source device further includes, near between the LEDs adjacent to each other, light introducing means for introducing the light emitted from the LEDs into the light emission surface or the light anti-emission surface.

A storage controller of the present invention is capable of providing a plurality of external volumes to a mainframe as a single virtual volume without lowering write performance. A virtual volume inside a main storage apparatus is associated with a plurality of external volumes inside an external storage apparatus. When the mainframe formats the virtual volume, a control information creation unit of the main storage apparatus creates and stores control information related to the virtual volume. Consequently, it is possible to enhance processing performance when the write size specified by the mainframe coincides with the data size set in the write destination, that is, during a so-called isometric write.

By the same method as that of making data access to a data storage area in an online state, it is performed to access a data storage area other than the data storage area. A plurality of logical volumes carried by a disk array apparatus includes an online volume that is in an online state to a host and an offline state that is in an offline state to the host. The host transmits an access command including target information designating a target volume to the disk array apparatus as an access command to a starting volume other than the target volume. The disk array apparatus receives the access command to the starting volume and offers the data access to the target volume on the basis of the target information carried by that access command to the host.

To obtain a planar light source which is free from brightness variations or chromaticity variations by using a point light source having a high directivity for emitted light, and to provide a liquid crystal display device capable of obtaining superior display characteristics by using this planar light source device. A planar light source device having an opening in the upper surface comprises a hollow box, a diffusion plate disposed in the opening, a reflecting plate disposed on the bottom of the hollow region of the box, and a plurality of point light sources disposed in a row along at least one side surface of the box. This planar light sources device is characterized by including a refracting element disposed parallel to the row of point light sources and between the point light sources and the hollow region for refracting the light from the point light sources, whereby the light at an incident angle at which the brightness is greatest in the luminous intensity distribution of the light radiated to the irradiation subject surface of the refracting element is refracted to the bottom surface of the box by the refracting element.
