Abstract
A shared-nothing database management system employs a method of adding and removing a database server without significantly affecting the processing performance for accessing a table from a user or an application. A scheduler module creates a schedule which separately handles the addition of a CPU resource and the addition of a storage I/O resource, and a server is added in accordance with the created schedule. A common disk is used to remove a disk at an arbitrary timing. Further, a data region is previously subdivided on the common disk to eliminate a movement of data associated with the addition of a server.
