ABSTRACT:
An administrator is required to prepare in advance LU as a pool area when a user storage area is set to a storage. LU configuration is generally cumbersome and it is not easy for a general user to configure it. A pool manager1and a storage1setting utility in a management console1communicate with a program in a storage1. The storage1sets a pool area having a designated capacity. In response to a volume forming request from the management console1, the storage1sets a designated volume by setting the designated volume as a used capacity of the set pool area. When a volume is formed, a policy is designated to select a storage area having a corresponding attribute from the pool area.
