ABSTRACT:
Related plural logical volumes can be used after switching over from the host computer therein. A switching command, which a host computer sends, makes a storage device search for a switching target volume, from the volume tables, that is identical to identification information of the switching target volume received among switching target candidate volumes that form a volume pair relation with the switching source volume. The storage device memorizes an intra-host ID of the switching target volume and an intra-storage ID of the switching target volume in a switching table with a correspondence there between. The storage device acquires the intra-storage ID of the switching target volume in reference to the switching table in the case of receiving an access request, such that the intra-host ID of the switching source volume is used as a key, and executes switching to access to the switching target volume.
