    摘要: A pool, which is configured by multiple actual areas, is formed on the basis of two or more storage devices. A second storage control apparatus (DKC) determines, for each storage device, an unused capacity to be given to a first DKC with respect to each first DKC based on an unused capacity of each storage device and a request value of each storage device for each first DKC, and gives, for each first DKC, the unused capacity for each storage device determined with respect to the first DKC, to this first DKC. The request value of the storage device is based on a performance value, which is a value related to the performance of this storage device. The total capacity of multiple actual areas allocated to the virtual volumes by the first DKC is equal to or less than the unused capacity given with respect to each storage device.

    摘要: A storage system has multiple disk controller (DKC) units that are coupled to one another in accordance with a coupling mode that satisfies the following (a1) through (a3): (a1) One DKC inside one DKC unit and one DKC inside another DKC unit are coupled via a second type of coupling medium that differs from the internal bus of the DKC and has a longer maximum communication distance than a first type of coupling medium, which is the same type of coupling medium as the internal bus of the DKC; (a2) the one DKC unit virtualizes a logical volume of the other DKC unit and provides this virtualized logical volume to host(s) coupled to the one DKC unit; and (a3) the other DKC unit virtualizes a logical volume of the DKC unit and provides this virtualized logical volume to host(s) coupled to the other DKC unit.

    摘要: A first storage control apparatus unit has a first logical volume. A second storage control apparatus unit has a second logical volume, which is a virtual logical volume and is mapped to the first logical volume, and a third logical volume that is associated with the first logical volume. The second storage control apparatus unit receives, from a host, an I/O command which has information including, as information denoting an I/O-destination area, an ID of the second logical volume and an address of an area of the second logical volume. The second storage control apparatus unit identifies a logical volume having an area that serves as an entity of the I/O-destination area, and a storage control apparatus unit that has this logical volume.
