摘要： A management system outputs catalog data, which has been created based on catalog-source data comprising data showing at least an application of a relevant resource with respect to each of multiple providable resources, and which shows the respective applications of the multiple resources, and receives a selection of a resource to be provided from the multiple resources. The management system provides the selected resource as a provided resource, and determines, based on a performance threshold configured with respect to the application of the provided resource, whether or not a performance measurement value, which relates to the processing performance of a network service using the provided resource and which can be monitored by the management system, is normal.

摘要： Exemplary embodiments of the invention provide a method for creating a command device in a storage system in a server virtualization environment. The storage system is coupled to a host computer having a virtual machine. The host computer includes a memory and a processor. The method comprises receiving a command device registration request to register a command device as a storage device for command transmission, the command device to be used in a virtual machine of the host computer; creating a virtual device by allocating a storage area of the storage system to the virtual device; and mounting the virtual device as the command device to the virtual machine in which the command device is used. Utilizing this invention, a block-access storage system can be controlled with in-band storage management command even in a server virtualization environment without a dedicated physical device.

摘要： A storage system stores golden image of a server or any physical/virtual machine execution environment and associate the golden image and the storage port. The storage system also creates the copy of the golden image to the logical volume, and allocates the internal path between the storage port and the logical volume. Upon receiving an access request from the host computer via the storage port, the storage system transfers the access request between the storage port and the logical volume which stores the copy of golden image associated with the host computer.
