    摘要: A storage system of this invention maintains consistency of the stored contents between volumes even when a plurality of remote copying operations are executed asynchronously. A plurality of primary storage control devices and a plurality of secondary storage control devices are connected by a plurality of paths, and remote copying is performed asynchronously between respective first volumes and second volumes. Write data transferred from the primary storage control device to the secondary storage control device is held in a write data storage portion. Update order information, including write times and sequential numbers, is managed by update order information management portions. An update control portion collects update order information from each update order information management portion, determines the time at which update of each second volume is possible, and notifies each-update portion. By this means, the stored contents of each second volume can be updated up to the time at which update is possible.

    摘要: A storage system comprises a primary storage device having a primary storage area, a first secondary storage device having a first secondary storage area, and a second secondary storage device having a second secondary storage area. Responsive to host request from a host computer, the primary storage device writes requested host data to the primary storage area. Furthermore the primary storage device sends a first and second copy request to the first and second secondary storage devices, respectively, to store copy data in the first and second secondary storage areas, the first and second copy request containing the copy data which is a copy of the host data. Here the second secondary storage area is identified by a virtual identifier used to identify the second secondary storage area as the virtual storage area within the primary storage device.

    摘要: During an asynchronous remote copy process for a plurality of asynchronous remote copy pairs, a copy of data in a migration source primary storage area is stored in a migration destination primary storage area, and the copy of data in the migration source primary storage area is also stored in a migration destination secondary storage area through a migration destination primary storage area or a migration source secondary storage area. Then, for an asynchronous remote copy pair established between the migration destination primary storage area and the migration destination secondary storage area together with the above-described asynchronous remote copy pairs, the asynchronous remote copy process is executed in such a method that a copy of writing data is stored in a plurality of secondary storage areas in accordance with the write request sequence issued by a computer. As such, an asynchronous remote copy pair between any two specific storage systems is migrated to be an asynchronous remote copy pair among any other two storage systems.
