WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/014329

Kind Code:

Abstract:

The management system of the present invention is connected to a storage system group which contains a scale-out type storage system (a virtual storage system). The management system has storage management information which contains information representing, for each storage system, whether or not the storage system is a component of a virtual storage system. The management system, on the basis of the storage management information, determines whether or not the first storage system is a component of a virtual storage system, and if the result is positive, the management system identifies a second storage system which is a storage system other than a virtual storage system containing the first storage system, upon which, for only the second storage system, a specific operation is allowed for the user.
