摘要:
To manage the configuration of a data archiving system without increasing the load on the data archiving system while keeping the performance of computers and the load on storage subsystems balanced, there is provided a computer system, including: a plurality of data archiving servers; a storage subsystem which provides storage extents to the plurality of data archiving servers; and a management computer. The management computer manages data archiving server performance management information, which holds information about performance of the plurality of data archiving servers, and storage utilization information, which holds information about load on the storage extents. The management computer changes the association between the data archiving storage extents and the storage extents based on a data archiving server performance management information and a storage utilization information.

Provided is a storage system capable of holding data by associating main data for long-term retention with sub data for maintaining its readability. The storage system: stores first data in a first location within a storage area upon reception of a storage request for the first data with a first file identifier being specified; holds information for associating the first file identifier, the first location, a retention period of the data, and first version information with one another; stores second data in a second location within the storage area upon reception of a storage request for the second data with the first file identifier and second version information being specified; holds information for associating the first file identifier, the second location, and the second version information with one another; and inhibits the first data and the second data from being changed before elapse of the retention period of the data.
摘要:
A data storage or management method is provided which allows both a content object-based access and a file-based access. A first request for storing a content object in accordance with the processing of an application program executed in a host is sent to an object archive control functionality executed in the host, an intermediate server, or a storage apparatus. The object archive control functionality generates an object identifier corresponding to the content object received in response to the first request, a directory name corresponding to the object identifier, and a plurality of file names corresponding to a plurality of fields contained in the content object. The storage apparatus stores a directory having the directory name and the plurality of files having the plurality of file names in accordance with the second request.

A storage system 1 including: a plurality of data storage systems 3000 each including a storage apparatus 5000 providing a data storage area to an external apparatus 1000, and an information processor 4000 controlling data input and output between the external apparatus and the storage apparatus, the storage system comprising; a data attribute information retention part 4420 holding data delete allow/disallow information 4423 and data attribute information 4421 and 4424; a management information retention part 2420 that is a list holding at least one of data attribute information 2421, and data storage location information 2422 of each piece of data; and a data delete control part 4440 receiving a data delete command and controlling a process of deleting the data stored in the storage apparatus based on the command. Upon receipt of the data delete command, the data delete control part sets to the file determined to be identical from being deleted when determining that the file identical to the delete target exists in the storage system.

A data storage or management method is provided which allows both a content object-based access and a file-based access. A first request for storing a content object in accordance with the processing of an application program executed in a host is sent to an object archive control functionality executed in the host, an intermediate server, or a storage apparatus. The object archive control functionality generates an object identifier corresponding to the content object received in response to the first request, a directory name corresponding to the object identifier, and a plurality of file names corresponding to a plurality of fields contained in the content object. The storage apparatus stores a directory having the directory name and the plurality of files having the plurality of file names in accordance with the second request.

Data is placed in tiered storage with a suitable granularity according to application characteristics. The storage apparatus comprises a controller for managing storage areas, provided by storage media of a plurality of types of varying performance, as pools, and for assigning the storage areas in page units to a virtual volume from any tiered storage among a plurality of types of tiered storage which the pool comprises in response to a data write request from the host computer, wherein, for specific data which is managed by the host computer, the controller specifies an area with a high referencing frequency among the specific data on the basis of organization information of the specific data, and moves this area to another of the tiered storage with a higher performance than an already assigned tiered storage.

This storage system modifies the migration plan in accordance with the state of the migration destination when a plurality of volumes are migrated all at once. Migration-source volumes are migrated collectively to volumes inside the migration-destination storage apparatus. The user can make settings related to migration-source volumes and migration-destination volumes in a migration plan, and can establish a mid-process control plan for modifying the migration plan in the middle of processing. If a failure occurs in the migration-destination storage apparatus subsequent to the commencement of data migration processing, a processing method controller either cancels or temporarily halts the data migration processing, or changes the migration destination, on the basis of the mid-process control plan. When changing the migration destination, a previously selected alternate storage apparatus is selected as the new migration-destination storage apparatus. When a failure occurs in the alternate storage apparatus, yet another alternate storage apparatus is selected.
