Abstract
Arrangements including a duplication determination unit that determines whether identical contents intrinsic values are contained in a plurality of contents intrinsic values; a change control unit that changes an access destination of a first file corresponding to a first contents intrinsic value from identical contents intrinsic values, to a position having stored therein a second file corresponding to a second contents intrinsic value from among these identical contents intrinsic values when there are identical contents intrinsic values; and, a migration execution unit which, when the migration execution unit migrates data stored in files stored in one or more first logical storage devices to one or more second logical storage devices, does not migrate first data of the first file to any of the one or more second logical storage devices, and migrates second data of the second file to any of the one or more second logical storage devices.
