Storage system and data arrangement method of storage system
An object is to construct a storage system configured with a high degree of freedom while ensuring a certain fault tolerance. The storage system includes a plurality of nodes that process an I/O processing request of data. The node has a storage device and a processor that performs the I/O processing on the storage device. The processor constitutes a data redundancy configuration in which data stored in different storage devices is combined as a data set. A management unit for managing the storage system performs a fault tolerance calculation of calculating fault tolerance information for a failure of each component by using component information that is information of a component including at least the and the storage device, and by using data redundancy configuration information related to the data redundancy configuration, and determines a data arrangement by applying the data redundancy configuration related to the calculated fault tolerance information.

a plurality of nodes that process an I/O processing request of data, wherein
each of the plurality of nodes includes:
a storage device; and
a processor configured to:
perform the I/O processing on the storage device;

perform a fault tolerance calculation of calculating fault tolerance information for a failure of each component by using component information that is information of a component including at least one of a node and the storage device, and by using data redundancy configuration information related to the data redundancy configuration; and
determine a data arrangement by applying the data redundancy configuration related to the calculated fault tolerance information,
wherein the fault tolerance information related to the data redundancy configuration includes a number of components having operational continuity in a case where a failure occurs for each of plurality of component types, and
the data arrangement, to which the data redundancy configuration is applied, is determined such that the number of components having operational continuity satisfies a predetermined reference in a case where the failure occurs for each of the plurality of component types.
