ABSTRACT:
The load of managing a storage system is lessened. In a storage system where multiple logical volumes are included in a logical volume group and a copy of the logical volume group is made in a pool area different from the one to which the logical volume group belongs, a management computer adds to the pool area capacity when the capacity of a pool area exceeds a predetermined threshold. When the pool area includes multiple logical volume groups, the management computer requests the storage system to create a pool area for each of the logical volume groups and to create the logical volume groups respectively for the created pool areas. When the pool area includes one logical volume group, the management computer requests the storage system to make the capacity of the pool area coincide with the capacity of a pool area to which the logical volume group is copied.
