Reliability in a storage system can be easily and appropriately improved. In a computer system including a storage system configured to provide a plurality of instances in any one of a plurality of subzones divided by risk boundaries, a processor of the computer system is configured to make a storage controller that controls I/O processing for a volume based on a capacity pool provided by a plurality of storages redundant to the plurality of instances provided in the plurality of subzones.

Computer system and redundant element configuration method

Even without a first storage system does not have compatibility with a second storage system that is different from a default cloud storage service which can be accessed by a cloud computer service as a migration destination of a computer instance, a volume in the first storage system can be migrated to the second storage system. A system causes a migration tool of a cloud computer to migrate, from a first storage system to the cloud computer, a system volume storing an image of an OS for configuring a computer instance to be migrated, and a data volume storing data used by the OS, and creates a mapping volume, which has been mapped to the data volume migrated to the cloud computer with the migration tool, in a second storage system, and sets a path of data input/output from the computer instance to the mapping volume in the computer instance.

Information processing system and method

Proposed are a storage system and a failure handling method capable of quickly recovering from a degeneration configuration when a failure occurs while reducing a cost required for system construction. A storage system is provided with one or a plurality of storage devices provided in a cloud system, one or a plurality of storage nodes provided in the cloud system, and a cloud control device configured to control the cloud system. The storage node is configured to request the cloud control device to prepare a new storage node when a failure of another storage node is detected, determine whether the storage device allocated to the storage node in which the failure occurs is failed, and request the cloud control device to allocate the storage device allocated to the storage node in which the failure occurs to the new storage node when the storage device is determined to be not failed.

Storage system and failure handling method

An object of the invention is to appropriately separate an available cluster for each user in a storage system configured by using a plurality of clusters each of which is an aggregate of nodes. A computer system includes a plurality of K8s clusters each configured by one or a plurality of K8s nodes, a storage that provides a volume, and a tenant management unit that manages the plurality of the K8s clusters and the storage. The tenant management unit creates, in the storage, a plurality of tenants respectively corresponding to the plurality of the K8s clusters. The storage, for each of the plurality of the K8s clusters, permits access from the K8s cluster to a tenant corresponding to the K8s cluster and prohibits access from the K8s cluster to a tenant not corresponding to the K8s cluster.

Information processing system for managing data storage and retrieval and method

Disclosed is a storage system that performs a drive data layout change while maintaining I/O functionality. The storage system creates a redundancy group for forming a redundant configuration of data to be stored in a storage drive, and stores data of the redundancy group in a plurality of the storage drives. A processor in a storage node discards data stored in a unit storage area, recovers the discarded data according to a changed data format, and re-stores the recovered data in the storage drive. The processor in the storage node performs an I/O process on the data to be discarded during a data format change, by achieving recovery based on the data of the redundancy group that is stored in an area other than the unit storage area where the data format is to be changed.
