Abstract
A computer system includes a plurality of servers connected to each other via a communication line, each server including a memory and a processor, an OS program and a storage program. The storage program is executed by the processor, and one of the plurality of servers acts as a request source server while one of the other servers acts as a request destination server. When the request source server reads data from the request destination server, the processor of the request source server executes the storage program to transmit a data read request to the request destination server. The processor of the request destination server then executes a storage memory driver incorporated in the OS program to read the requested data from an own memory and transmit the read data to the request source server. The request source server then executes the storage program to acquire the data.
