摘要： When detecting the completion of remote copying of a primary volume to a secondary volume, a host compute splits a copy pair into the primary volume and the secondary volume and has the secondary volume store a snapshot of the primary volume. A backup server recognizes the secondary volume.

摘要： A synchronization confirmation method required for operation of a database is provided to a host device connected to a disk device which provides remote asynchronous data transfer. Immediately after commit of write data, an application of the host device issues a sync command which requires synchronization confirmation. A disk control device notifies the host device of a number concerning latest data received from the host device of a local side and a number concerning latest data received by a remote side. When the two numbers have coincided with each other, the host device judges the commit operation to have been completed.

摘要： An object is to efficiently set configurations of a storage apparatus. Provided is an information apparatus communicably coupled to a storage apparatus 10, which validates a script executed by the storage apparatus 10 for setting a configuration of the storage apparatus 10, the information apparatus generating configurations of the storage apparatus 10 when after each command described in a script is executed sequentially; and performing consistency validation on the script by determining whether or not the command described in the script is normally executable in a case the command is executed on an assumption that the storage apparatus 10 has the configuration immediately before the execution.

摘要： Commands can be issued by being flexibly adjusted to each of an in-band method and an out-of-band method.A disk controller includes: a pseudo-logical volume provided independently from a substantial logical volume; a command analyzer for analyzing a command received by means of communication on the in-band method or the out-of-band method; and a special command processing unit for executing operation over the substantial logical volume which corresponds to the pseudo-logical volume, instead of executing operation over the pseudo-logical volume, if the command means an instruction to operate the pseudo-logical volume.

摘要： Provided is a storage system having a host system, a first storage controller and a second storage controller. The first storage controller has a primary logical volume formed from an actual volume, and a secondary logical volume formed from a virtual volume capable of forming a copy pair with the primary logical volume. The second storage controller has an external volume formed from an actual volume to be mapped to the secondary logical volume. The host system has device data showing the mapping relationship between the external volume and the secondary logical volume.

摘要： A first host computer writes data as an object of transfer and its location information to a storage subsystem. A second host computer reads out the data as an object of transfer which has been written to said storage subsystem on the basis of the location information thus written thereto. As a result, the data transfer between the host computers can be carried out employing the storage subsystem.
