摘要:
The file synchronization processing among sites which can reduce the response time is realized. By the CAS device creating a list of at least a part of the file groups which the first sub-computer system archived or backed up to the data center as an update list and transferring the update list to the second sub-computer system, the second sub-computer system determines whether the file is valid or not by using the update list (See FIG. 2).

In a computer system according to an embodiment of the present invention, a first slave server includes copy management information associating a master file system identifier with an identifier of a slave server including a copy of the master file system identified by the master file system identifier. The first slave server acquires a copy of a part of a master file system. The copy includes a stub-state object (file or directory). The first slave server searches the copy management information for a slave server to be queried regarding information for materializing the stub-state object. If the slave server to be queried includes the information for materialization, the first slave server materializes the stub-state object using the information for materialization acquired from the queried slave server.

摘要:
The client computer which transmits an access request specifying an object existing in the first file system and the second computer which accesses the second file system are connected to the first computer which accesses the first file system. The second file system includes a shared directory. A specific object which is an object complying with the path name including the name determined in accordance with the type of the second computer is stored in the shared directory. The controller mounts the shared directory to the first file system. The controller creates a link which comprises a name determined in accordance with a certain naming regulation independent of the type of the computer and corresponds to the specific object in the first file system.

摘要:
Time required for a file server to determine files to be migrated from a first storage region to a second storage region is reduced. A file service system coupled to the storage system for providing a first storage region and a second storage region stores identifiers of files that have been accessed by a client, in accessed file identifier information and determines the files to be migrated from the first storage region to the second storage region based on metadata of the files stored in the first storage region and the accessed file identifier information.
摘要:
The system of the present invention curbs an unnecessary inter-tier file migration and provides an inter-tier file migration that conforms to the utilization state. The hierarchical storage management system respectively migrates a frequently accessed file to the upper Tier, and an infrequently accessed file to the lower Tier. This system carries out inter-tier file migration in conformance with the utilization state. This system provides functions for anchoring a Tier for storage for a specified file, and for not permitting an inter-tier file migration.

摘要:
In acquiring a snapshot, when data in a P-VOL is updated, it is determined whether the same data as target data to be stored in a certain second storage area specified by a certain second address of a D-VOL is already stored in a different second storage area specified by a different second address of the D-VOL, the target data being the differential data generated by the update. When the same data as the target data is stored, the target data is not newly stored in the D-VOL, and the different second address, specifying the different second storage area where the same data is stored, is registered in a snapshot management table (CoW table), in association with a certain first address specifying a certain first storage area where the data from which the target data has been generated is stored.
