摘要： A system for controlling spinning of a disk is provided to prevent deterioration of the access response speed and to suppress the power consumption. The system includes a controller controlling a file system, and a disk array system storing data of the file system. The disk array system includes a plurality of logical volumes, each of which is configured by at least one disk device, and a disk controller controlling data input/output to/from the plurality of logical volumes. The plurality of logical volumes includes at least one first type logical volume which is controlled so that spinning of a disk device that configures the logical volume can be stopped, and at least one second type logical volume which is controlled so that spinning of a disk device that configures the logical volume cannot be stopped. Data satisfying a predetermined condition is stored in the second type logical volume.

摘要： Provided is a storage apparatus, a data migration method, and a server apparatus, capable of maintaining a snapshot of a logical volume before and after the migration of data in the logical volume. A server apparatus, when migrating data in a first volume allocated to the server apparatus to one or more volumes in a storage apparatus allocated to another server apparatus, keeps the data in the storage apparatus allocated to the storage apparatus even after the migration of the data in the first volume, or also migrates data in the second volume to the one or more volumes allocated to the other server apparatus.
