ABSTRACT:
In a storage system having a plurality of disk array devices connected through a network to a host for running an application, and a management server for monitoring the disk array devices, the disk array device includes a physical disk error detecting unit for detecting an error in a physical disk. Meanwhile, the management server stores a corresponding relationship among the application, a logical volume used by the application, and the physical disk corresponding to the logical volume. Moreover, the management server includes an application detecting unit for detecting the application using the logical volume corresponding to the physical disk with the error according to the corresponding relationship when the physical disk error detecting unit of the disk array device detects the error in the physical disk.
