Acquiring a snapshot of a logical volume involves generating snapshot-related catalog information including at least a location for storing actual data in the snapshot and a reference destination for identifying another snapshot in parent-child relation to the snapshot, and storing the actual data in the snapshot to the physical storage device and/or to the cloud service. In a case where at least one of a plurality of snapshots is to be designated and restored, catalog information is referenced to identify the storage location of the actual data and acquire the actual data stored in the physical storage device and the actual data not stored in the physical storage device from the cloud service.
