    摘要: In a computer system having a storage device, switches and hosts respectively connected by a network, in accordance with an ID of a logical volume of the storage device and an IP address of a host, access control configuration of the logical volume is performed relative to the storage device, the IP address of the host is converted into a MAC address, the MAC address of the host is converted into a port ID of the switch connected to the host, and addition of the port to virtual local area network (VLAN) is performed for the switch. Logical unit number (LUN) masking and VLAN configuration essential for security countermeasure of IP-SAN (Internet protocol-storage area network) can be managed collectively by a system administrator so that the running cost of IP-SAN can be lowered.

    摘要: Each of the storage devices 1, 2 is provided with transmission queues 306a, 306b with respect to each of transmission paths A and B. The storage device 1 stores identical request data in each of the transmission queues 306a and 306b, and transmits each data to the counterpart storage device 2, respectively via the transmission path A and B (S811, 812). The storage device 2, being a counterpart, stores the request data or response data arrived earlier in the receive history information table 300 (S817), and discards the request data arrived later (S903, 904). Furthermore, if the storage device 1, being a transmission source, receives at least one response data against the request data, the storage device 1 searches the transmission queues 306a, 306b, and if there remains request data in any of the transmission queue, deletes the request data (S909).
