Abstract
A management device managing a storage device having a plurality of logical storage areas accessed by a computer has a monitor module for determining whether a setting is made by which the computer uniformly accesses the plurality of logical storage areas, obtaining respective access counts of the plurality of logical storage areas when it is determined that the setting is made, and comparing the obtained plurality of access counts, thereby determining whether a logical storage area having a problem exists; an analysis module for obtaining, when the problem exists, configuration information of the storage device assigned to the logical storage area having the problem, and identifying a configuration in the storage device as a bottleneck on the basis of the obtained configuration information; a creation module for creating a countermeasure of changing an access route passing through the configuration as the identified bottleneck.
