    摘要: Disclosed is a storage system having storage devices from which storage areas are specified. Virtualization apparatuses allocate the storage areas as virtual volumes and processes I/O requests with respect to the virtual volumes. A controller is operable to change the allocation of storage areas to the virtual volumes. The controller is configured to send a request to some of the virtualization apparatuses to temporarily suspend processing of their I/O. When a virtualization apparatus receives such a request, it completes its pending I/O and temporarily suspends subsequent I/O requests, and sends a completion report to the controller. The controller then changes the allocation of storage areas to the virtual volumes.

    摘要: A host I/F unit has a management table for managing an MPPK which is in-charge of the control of input/output processing for a storage area of an LDEV, and if a host computer transmits an input/output request for the LDEV, the host I/F unit transfers the input/output request to the MPPK which is in-charge of the input/output processing for the LDEV based on the management table, an MP of the MPPK performs the input/output processing based on the input/output request, and the MP of the MPPK also judges whether the MPPK that is in-charge of the input/output processing for the LDEV is to be changed, and sets the management table so that an MPPK which is different from the MPPK that is in-charge is to be in-charge of the input/output processing for the LDEV.

    摘要: The relation between a NAS server and a port set with a network address given to the NAS server is uniquely decided at 1:1 so that the processing performance of a TCP/IP processor or the NAS server creates a bottleneck to lower the response.A host computer separates: an I/F portion, to which an address which sends a command is given; a NAS server portion; a cache control portion which processes a device; and an I/F portion which accesses an external storage, and accesses them through an internal network 170 so that the corresponding relation between the I/F and the NAS server and the corresponding relation between the address given to the I/F and the NAS server can be arbitrarily reconfigured according to the processing load or the like.
