The device creates a job network configuration file that prescribes an execution procedure of a job in an information processing apparatus. This device comprises a template input unit, a definition file input unit, a setting data input unit and a creation processing unit. The template input unit can receive a template file including an undefined variable, the template file being prepared in connection with the job network configuration file. The definition file input unit can receive a definition file that establishes an association between the variable used in the template file and setting data that is input by an user in connection with a setting of the job network configuration file. The setting data input unit can receive input of the setting data from the user. The creation processing unit can create the job network configuration file in accordance with the definition file and the template file based on the setting data.

To provide a technique to sort out a tangle of management procedures and management subjects and associate the two with each other. A computer system according to this invention includes: a storage system having plural disks and a disk array control unit; and a management device having a control unit that uses a jobnet to manage the storage system. In the computer system, the control unit obtains data corresponding to an identifier of a resource that is included in the jobnet, converts the jobnet into an executable format by rewriting and substituting the identifier with a display name or attribute of the resource, and registers an association between a jobnet identifier and a resource identifier in a database.

Systems for backing up the data of an IT system by utilizing server or storage virtualization technology to create and move logical IT infrastructures dynamically. A virtualized IT system provides a server resource pool and a storage resource pool composed from multiple physical devices either within a datacenter or a globally located plurality of datacenters. The virtual server and the storage volume provisioned from those pools will be paired to form the virtual infrastructure. In other words, the virtual infrastructure becomes a logical IT environment build with the required computing and storage resources needed in order to execute specific applications. The virtual infrastructure can also be migrated within/among datacenter sites.

A system and method for automatically managing the storage of data in a storage service provider's (SSP's) storage system in compliance with regulatory requirements receives a request from a user for storing the user's data at the SSP. The SSP provides an interface which gathers information from the user and determines relevant regulations and data classes for the user's data. Based on the gathered information, the SSP issues a request for data management parameters corresponding to the determined regulation and data class from a data management regulation site. The SSP receives the relevant data management parameters and allocates storage space for storing the user's data in accordance with the data management parameters received from the data management regulation site. Additionally, if a regulation relevant to the user's data is changed or updated, the invention provides the user with the option of automatically migrating the user's data to the updated parameters.

A storage system includes a client host, a storage device, and a separate data search appliance. The client software executing on the client host composes a query and sends a data search request to the storage device. The storage device passes the received query to the connected data search appliance. The search appliance invokes search process to find search candidates using meta information of the data stored in the storage device. Upon the completion of the search process, the search appliance returns the identified search results to the storage device. Upon receipt of the search results from the search appliance, the storage device passes them to the client. At the same time, the storage device pre-fetches the actual data which corresponds to the search results into its cache memory to ensure fast future retrieval. When the client requests to retrieve actual data corresponding to any of the search results from the storage device, the storage device returns the desired data immediately from its cache memory. If the client requests to retrieve additional data corresponding to another search result, these data is returned immediately as well.

A storage system includes a first de-duplication scope comprising a first volume, a first table of hash values corresponding to first chunks of data stored on the first volume, and a first table of logical block addresses of where the chunks of data are stored on the first volume. A second de-duplication scope includes similar information for a second volume. The first scope is used for de-duplicating and storing first data from a first data source and the second scope is used for de-duplicating and storing second data from a second data source. First storage mediums that make up the first volume remain powered off while de-duplication and storage of the second data on the second volume takes place, and second storage mediums that make up the second volume remain powered off while de-duplication and storage of the first data takes place, thereby enabling data de-duplication while saving power.
