ABSTRACT:
In one aspect of the invention, A data center system comprises a plurality of data centers each including a computer and a storage system. The computers each include a memory area for storing information about an order of operating priorities among the computers and another memory area for storing a cluster service program, whereby when an active computer from the computers fails as a failed computer, the cluster service program is executed to select a standby computer from the remaining computers according to the information about the order of operating priorities to be a failover computer to take over processing from the failed computer. The information about the order of operating priorities may relate to the types of remote copy operation used between the storage systems.
