An access method includes: obtaining, by a computer, a result of monitoring a busy rate and a number of access operations per unit time of a storage device, the storage device having a first storage area and a second storage area; calculating a characteristic of correlation between the busy rate and the number of access operations per unit time based on the result; calculating a second number of access operations per unit time based on the characteristic of the correlation such that a sum of a first busy rate corresponding to a first number of access operations per unit time and a second busy rate corresponding to a second number of access operations per unit time becomes equal to or lower than a given busy rate; and controlling a number of operations to access the second storage area per unit time based on the second number of access operations.

A file server has a conversion table that stores therein, in a corresponding manner, logical addresses specified by a higher-level layer and physical addresses specified by a disk driver that are address information indicative of a storage area in a disk device. The file server accesses the disk device with a storage area indicated by a physical address as an access destination and counts up the number of access requests to each storage area in a given period of time for each of the logical addresses. The file server then updates the conversion table such that the physical addresses are lined up in a descending order of the logical addresses of a higher number of the access requests counted. Thereafter, the file server changes storage areas of data stored in the storage device based on the conversion table updated.

An information processing apparatus includes a first storage unit and a processor. The first storage unit includes a first storage area. The processor receives a first request to write first data into the first storage area. The processor requests an external apparatus to write the first data into a second storage area in a second storage unit included in the external apparatus. The processor determines whether a first response has been received from the external apparatus. The first response indicates that the first data has been written into the second storage area. The processor writes the first data into the first storage area when the first response has been received. The processor requests, without writing the first data into the first storage area, the external apparatus to write second data stored in the first storage area into the second storage area when the first response has not been received.

A computer-readable recording medium stores a program that causes a computer to execute a writing control process that includes receiving a writing request to write a first data to a first storage apparatus; determining a second data from among a series of data and based on a writing sequence of the series of data written to the computer and a count of storage areas at a second storage apparatus that sequentially selects from among the storage areas when data is received, a storage area to be over written by the received data, where the second data is written to the first storage apparatus and is identical to data that is stored in the storage area to be selected next at the second storage apparatus; and transmitting copy data of the first data to the second storage apparatus, when the second data has been written to the first storage apparatus.

An information processing system includes a first processor to store data segments in a first memory, to send the data segments to be stored in the first memory to a second processor, and to read the data segments from the first memory so as to store the data segments in a second memory; and the second processor to store the data segments to be stored sent from the first processor in a third memory, wherein when the first processor notifies the second processor about data that is permitted to be removed, the first processor sends ID information to the second processor that renders a particular data segment that was last stored in the second memory identifiable, and the second processor removes from the third memory the particular data segment and an older data segment stored previous to the particular data segment from the data segments stored in the third memory.

In a computer executing processes based on a storage management program, an attribute collection unit collects attributes of storage nodes. A group creation unit creates at least two groups that include the storage nodes, in accordance with the attributes of the storage nodes collected by the attribute collection unit. A data allocation unit allocates distributed data and redundant distributed data to the groups created by the group creation unit in such a manner that the distributed data and the redundant distributed data having the same content as the distributed data are placed in different groups.
摘要:
Processing time required from transmission of a request packet including a processing request from a client, until return of a reply packet in which internal information including an operation status of a plurality of servers is added to an execution result of processing corresponding to the processing request, obtained by the servers in cooperation with each other, is calculated by a function incorporated beforehand in the respective servers. Moreover, the internal information added to the reply packet is extracted and stored in an internal information DB in association with the calculated required time of the processing. Furthermore predetermined statistical processing is performed with respect to the internal information and the required time associated with the internal information stored in the internal information DB to analyze the operation status of the plurality of servers.
摘要:
According to an aspect of the embodiment, a packet analyzing apparatus monitors a concentration level of input and output access from an access apparatus to a disk device, specifies a data area to which the concentration level of input and output access exceeds a first threshold, and instructs a storage server to cache the data area. The packet analyzing apparatus monitors a concentration level of input and output access to a data area to which the data area is cached, and, when the concentration level of input and output access is below a second threshold, instructs the storage server to release the caching.
