ABSTRACT:
A storage device which limits the partition of the logical memory devices for computers in accordance with properties such as reliability. An access control approves an access only to the logical memory device which was partitioned referring to an access control table. An access control setting control renews the access control table so as to partition the assigned logical memory devices to the assigned computer when the assigned logical memory devices can be partitioned. A utilization condition setting control determines the partition propriety of the logical memory device based the content of the partition condition defining table including a pair of the property condition which is the origin of judging whether the logical memory device can be partitioned or not and the partition propriety information of showing the propriety of partition to the computer and the content of the property table including a pair of the logical memory device ID and the property information of the corresponding logical memory device, and renews the partition management table.
