ABSTRACT:
To migrate a configuration that an old storage device has to a new storage device.A new storage device4000obtains a configuration of an old storage device5000, by using a migration manager PG4345, and prepares a logical volume definition of the new storage device4000on the basis of a logical volume definition which is included in the configuration. Also, on the basis of a cache allocation definition included in the configuration of the old storage device5000and cache capacity of the new storage device4000, a cache allocation definition of the new storage device4000is prepared. Also, on the basis of a port bandwidth allocation definition included in the configuration of the old storage device5000and bandwidth capacity of a port of the new storage device4000, a port bandwidth allocation definition of the new storage device4000is prepared. And, the logical volume definition, the cache allocation definition and the port bandwidth allocation definition which were prepared as above are set up in a configuration of the new storage device4000.
