摘要:
Optimum load distribution processing is selected and executed based on settings made by a user in consideration of load changes caused by load distribution in a plurality of asymmetric cores, by using: a controller having a plurality of cores, and configured to extract, for each LU, a pattern showing the relationship between a core having an LU ownership and a candidate core as an LU ownership change destination based on LU ownership management information; to measure, for each LU, the usage of a plurality of resources; to predicate, for each LU based on the measurement results, a change in the usage of the plurality of resources and overhead to be generated by transfer processing itself; to select, based on the respective prediction results, a pattern that matches the user's setting information; and to transfer the LU ownership to the core belonging to the selected pattern.

A controller having a plurality of cores extracts, for each logical unit (LU), a pattern showing the relationship between a core having an LU ownership and a candidate core as an LU ownership change destination based on LU ownership management information, measures, for each LU, the usage of a plurality of resources, predicates, for each LU based on the measurement results, a change in the usage of the plurality of resources and overhead to be generated by transfer processing itself, selects, based on the respective prediction results, a pattern that matches the user's setting information, and transfer the LU ownership to the core belonging to the selected pattern.

摘要:
A plurality of CPU cores each have control rights for logical storage areas of one or more types among logical storage areas of a plurality of types. As a source for an area to be assigned to the logical storage areas, a physical storage area which is common to the logical storage areas of the plurality of types is managed. Each CPU core, in the case of a data access to a logical storage area corresponding to the control rights of the CPU core, assigns an area required to store the data from the common physical storage area.
摘要:
The fact that data stored in a storage system is not updated for a given period is proven to a third party. A method of managing data that is given an update prohibitive attribute includes a step of storing, in a management server, information on an end time of the update prohibitive attribute which is received from a storage system, a step of receiving, from the storage system, a request for permission to change the update prohibitive attribute given to the data and obtaining, from the management server, the end time of the update prohibitive attribute given to the data on which the request is made, a step of judging whether or not the end time of the update prohibitive attribute has passed, and a step of sending, when it is judged that the end time of the update prohibitive attribute given to the data on which the request is made has passed, permission to change the update prohibitive attribute given to the data on which the request is made to the storage system.

摘要:
In a storage system that manages update prohibition (WORM) information, when time management is not performed with precision, there arises a possibility that an update prohibition (WORM) attribute may be erased before a preservation period expires. This invention provides a storage system coupled to at least one of time servers through a network, including: a first time information holding unit that holds first time information to be used to manage an update prohibition attribute of data; a second time information holding unit that holds second time information to be used to establish time synchronization with a device coupled to the network; and a time update unit that manages the first time information and the second time information, in which the time update unit receives third time information from the at least one of the time servers and judges whether the third time information satisfies a predetermined condition, and updates the first time information based on the third time information when the third time information satisfies the predetermined condition.
