    摘要: In the conventional storage system, consistency is ensured only for writing from a single storage. Asynchronous remote copying and local replication are also alternately suspended in the conventional system, so that the suspension time increases and the volume in which consistency is obtained becomes old. Two local replicas are prepared, for a volume containing stored data that is transferred from the main site by asynchronous remote copying, in the storage at the sub-site. Each pair of local replicas is alternately suspended by a time-specific suspension command according to the time of the timestamp attached to the write data, and replica data in which the time sequence is secured is continually prepared. When a failure occurs at the main site, the data is recovered using the replica data.

    摘要: During an asynchronous remote copy process for a plurality of asynchronous remote copy pairs, a copy of data in a migration source primary storage area is stored in a migration destination primary storage area, and the copy of data in the migration source primary storage area is also stored in a migration destination secondary storage area through a migration destination primary storage area or a migration source secondary storage area. Then, for an asynchronous remote copy pair established between the migration destination primary storage area and the migration destination secondary storage area together with the above-described asynchronous remote copy pairs, the asynchronous remote copy process is executed in such a method that a copy of writing data is stored in a plurality of secondary storage areas in accordance with the write request sequence issued by a computer. As such, an asynchronous remote copy pair between any two specific storage systems is migrated to be an asynchronous remote copy pair among any other two storage systems.

    摘要: Even when a host does not give a write time to write data, consistency can be kept among data stored in secondary storage systems. The present system has plural primary storage systems each having a source volume and plural secondary storage systems each having a target volume. Once data is received from a host, each of the plural storage systems creates write-data management information having sequential numbers and reference information and sends, to one of the primary storage systems, the data, sequential number and reference information. Each of the secondary storage systems records reference information corresponding to the largest sequential number among serial sequential numbers and stores, in a target volume in an order of sequential numbers, data corresponding to reference information having a value smaller than the reference information based on the smallest value reference information among reference information recorded in each of the plural secondary storage systems.

    摘要: A remote copy system includes a plurality of first storage systems and a plurality of second storage systems. Each first storage system assigns a sequential number to write data received from the host and sends the write data with the sequential number to the second storage system. One of the first storage systems defers the processing of the write request received from the host and instructs each of the first storage systems to create a marker, whereupon each of the first storage systems defers the processing of the write request, creates a marker including a sequential number and having a marker number, and sends the marker to the second storage system. Each of the second storage systems, when receiving a marker from the first storage system, stores the marker number included in the marker. One of the second storage systems reads the marker number stored by each of the second storage systems and reports to each of the second storage systems the marker number of smallest value of the marker numbers which were thus read. Each of the second storage systems writes to a logical volume in sequential number order write data, of the write data received from the first storage system, that includes a sequential number of a value smaller than the sequential number of the marker including the marker number reported from one of the second storage systems.

    摘要: During the normal operation state of a computer system 1000, the data stored in a primary storage system 200P is copied to an intermediate storage system 200I via synchronous copying and the data stored in the intermediate storage system 200I is copied to a secondary storage system 200R via asynchronous copying. During the reverse operation state, however, the data stored in the secondary storage system 200R is copied to the intermediate storage system 200I via asynchronous copying and the data stored in the intermediate storage system 200I is copied to the primary storage system 200P via synchronous copying. In this way, practical remote copying can be carried out in a computer system in which three or more storage devices are installed at different locations and connected serially.
