摘要： In order to assign logical devices efficiently to logical units, a disk control system that receives a process command for writing or reading of data from an information processing device, and performs a write or read process of data with respect to a logical device corresponding to a logical unit specified by that process command, includes means for managing logical devices, which are logical storage regions that have been set in a storage region provided by a disk drive, means for storing a correspondence between logical units, which are storage regions that have been set logically, and the logical devices, and means for assigning, when a process command has been received for a logical unit to which no logical device has been assigned, a logical device to that logical unit and performing processing with regard to that logical device.

摘要： A storage system data duplication method for copying data of a plurality of logical volumes possessed by a first storage system to a second storage system includes the steps of: (a) copying the data of the plurality of logical volumes to the second storage system; (b) interrupting copying of the data of the plurality of logical volumes to the second storage system; (c) starting copying of data of one or more of the plurality of logical volumes to the second storage system; and starting copying of data of ones of the plurality of logical volumes other than the one or more logical volumes to the second storage system as delayed from the step (c), shortening a time taken until completion of data duplication on recreation of a group of paired logical volumes in a volume group after remote copy is temporarily stopped.
