    摘要: A computer system including a copy source volume and a copy target volume which may be selectably PAIRED or SPLIT. User management information stores: an entry indicating that a first user is permitted to effect a PAIR operation and a PATH operation; and, an entry indicating that a second user is permitted to effect a PATH operation. Operation management information indicates permitted PATH and PAIR operations in relation to each user and a volume's PAIR or SPLIT status, and stores: an entry indicating that the first user is permitted to effect the PAIR operation in which the PAIR status is PAIR, or is SPLIT WITH BACKUP DISABLED; and, an entry indicating that the second user is permitted to effect the PATH operations in which the PAIR status is SPLIT WITH BACKUP ENABLED. PAIR management information stores the PAIR status and the BACKUP ENABLED or DISABLED status.

    摘要: A storage system allocates a data storage area in response to an access request from a first computer if the capacity of a first physical storage device configuring a first logical storage area, provided to the first computer, is equal to or lower than a predetermined threshold. The storage system associates the first logical storage area with another physical storage device, which is different from the first physical storage device associated with a second logical storage area provided to the first computer and a second computer, and allocates a data storage area from the another physical storage device if the capacity of the first physical storage device associated with the first logical storage area exceeds the predetermined threshold.

    摘要: A volume management system, a managing computer, a host, and a volume management method being capable of regulating the authorities of users and avoiding misoperations are provided. The volume management system comprises a storage having volumes served as a storage region, a managing computer, and a plurality of hosts used by users obtaining an operation authority over the volume. Two or more users can use an identical volume. Upon obtaining an operation content of one user for at least one of the volumes over which two or more users have the operation authority, the managing computer determines from an attribute of the volume and the operation authority of the two or more users over the volume whether the operation content is executable. When the operation content is not executable, the operation content is restrained.

    摘要: The object of the present invention is to prevent distribution of a storage range to a volume from an inappropriate disk drive comparing with use of the volume as a result of an automatic extension of a volume capacity. A computer system has a storage system including a physical storage device, a host computer, and a management computer. The storage system includes a plurality of kinds of physical storage devices physically dividing into two segments or more the volume and records as constitution information the correspondence between each segment and the volume using the segment. And the storage system records the kind of physical storage device to be allocated to the volume and selects the physical storage device according to the kind of stored physical storage device for allocation of the segment when the host computer performs an I/O access to the volume.
