摘要： A management system for managing an acquisition of information on multiple resources by multiple information acquisition apparatuses configured to acquire information on the multiple resources based on an information acquisition indication, is configured. The management system stores information for specifying a resource group, which is a group of multiple resources targeted for acquiring information at the same time points. The management system sends to each of multiple information acquisition apparatuses, which acquire information on multiple resources of a certain resource group, an information acquisition indication defining a timing for acquiring information from the resource of the certain resource group so that the information acquired from the multiple resources of the certain resource group are information at approximately the same time points. The information acquisition apparatus receives the information acquisition indication, and is able to acquire information on the resource of the certain resource group based on this information acquisition indication.

摘要： To provide a storage management technique for creating and managing, with single operation by a user, a large quantity of writable snapshots, which satisfy a requirement desired by the user, while controlling a use form of a storage apparatus not to exceed limits of the performance and the capacity of the storage apparatus. Therefore, a management computer manages configuration information and performance information of plural storage apparatuses and an operation state of a writable snapshot. When a writable snapshot is created, the management computer controls, concerning an original snapshot, a use form of the storage apparatuses not to exceed a disk performance limit and a controller performance limit and a capacity limit of a storage on the basis of the number of writable snapshots to be created and a performance requirement (IOPS) and a capacity requirement of the writable snapshot.

摘要： According to the present invention, it is possible to construct a backup configuration of a particular application data, without influencing data of another application. A management computer is coupled to a host computer on which an application operates, and to a storage apparatus that includes a plurality of volume groups each having one or more logical volumes. At least one of the logical volumes is allocated to the application. The management computer includes a volume group overlapping use determination part and a backup policy determination part. When the backup of the volume group to which one logical volume belongs is configured, the volume group overlapping use determination part determines whether there is another application that uses the volume group. The backup policy determination part determines whether there is set, for another volume group, backup policy information same as that set for the application.

摘要： The present invention provides a backup method that makes it possible to specify the recovery-enabled time of an application even in a case where a backup has been performed without staticizing the application. In response to a first instruction from a management computer, a storage system backs up a first volume to a second volume at a first time while a first host computer continues to process an application. In response to a second instruction from the management computer, a second host computer reads out the data of the second volume and acquires a second time that is the time at which the application is recovery-enabled. The management computer stores the relationship between the backup and the second time in backup catalog information.

摘要： In a management computer which manages a storage system including a main logical volume and subsidiary logical volumes, when the access volume to the main logical volume exceeds a threshold value, a subsidiary logical volume associated with a physical volume having higher input/output performance than the physical volume associated with the main logical volume is selected. When the migration time of the data stored in the physical volume corresponding to the selected subsidiary logical volume is within a prescribed time period, then data stored in the physical volume corresponding to the main logical volume is migrated to the physical volume corresponding to the selected subsidiary logical volume, and the physical volume corresponding to the selected subsidiary logical volume is associated with the main logical volume.

摘要： An electrostatic induction power generator includes a first base body and a second base body, which are configured to be able to reciprocate relative to each other and between which an annular clearance is formed. The electrostatic induction power generator further includes an electret provided on the first base body, and a first electrode and a second electrode provided on the second base body. The electret is formed by coating a charged dielectric material on a surface of a linear conducting wire and both of the first electrode and the second electrode are formed of a linear conducting wire.
