STORAGE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING STORAGE SYSTEM
To migrate a volume while maintaining a pair. A first node includes a primary volume. A second node includes a secondary volume configured to create a remote copy pair with the primary volume and sets the remote copy using identification information on the primary volume and identification information on the secondary volume. A third node includes a migration destination volume to be a migration destination of the secondary volume. The first node receives a new pair creating request in which the identification information on the volume, the primary identification information on the secondary volume, and information specifying the third node are designated, and creates a new pair between the primary volume and the migration destination volume. The second node deletes the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume and replaces the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the secondary volume.
1 . A storage system comprising:
a plurality of nodes each including a processor, wherein a first node includes a primary volume configured to provide a logical storage area to a host,
a second node includes a secondary volume configured to create a remote copy pair with the primary volume and sets the remote copy using identification information on the primary volume and identification information on the secondary volume,
a third node includes a migration destination volume to be a migration destination when migration is performed with the secondary volume as a migration source volume,
the first node creates a new pair between the primary volume and the migration destination volume when receiving a new pair creating request in which the identification information on the primary volume, the identification information on the secondary volume, and information identifying the third node are designated, and
the second node deletes the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume and replaces the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the secondary volume.
2 . The storage system according to claim 1 , wherein
after input/output to/from the secondary volume is made pending, the second node deletes the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume, replaces the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the secondary volume, and cancels the pending.
3 . The storage system according to claim 1 , wherein
the first node further includes a first journal volume configured to accumulate a history of writing to the primary volume,
the third node further includes a third journal volume corresponding to the first journal volume after the migration, and
identification information on the third journal volume is used as information identifying the third node.
4 . The storage system according to claim 1 , wherein
the third node acquires a content in the primary volume from the first node and copies the content to the migration destination volume after the new pair is created, and
the second node deletes the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume and replaces the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the secondary volume after the copy is completed.
5 . The storage system according to claim 1 , wherein
the third node acquires a content in the secondary volume from the second node and copies the content to the migration destination volume after the new pair is created, and
the second node deletes the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume and replaces the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the secondary volume after the copy is completed.
6 . A storage system comprising:
a plurality of nodes each including a processor, wherein
a first node includes a primary volume configured to provide a logical storage area to a host,
a second node includes a secondary volume configured to create a remote copy pair with the primary volume and sets the remote copy using identification information on the primary volume and identification information on the secondary volume,
a third node includes a migration destination volume to be a migration destination when migration is performed with the primary volume as a migration source volume,
the second node creates a new pair between the secondary volume and the migration destination volume when receiving a new pair creating request in which the identification information on the primary volume, the identification information on the secondary volume, and information identifying the third node are designated, and
the first node deletes the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume and replaces the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the primary volume.
7 . A method for managing a storage system including a plurality of nodes each including a processor, the method comprising:
providing a primary volume configured to provide a logical storage area to a host in a first node;
providing a secondary volume configured to create a remote copy pair with the primary volume in a second node and setting the remote copy using identification information on the primary volume and identification information on the secondary volume by the second node;
providing a migration destination volume to be a migration destination when migration is performed with the secondary volume as a migration source volume in a third node;
creating, by the first node, a new pair between the primary volume and the migration destination volume when receiving a new pair creating request in which the identification information on the primary volume, the identification information on the secondary volume, and information identifying the third node are designated; and
deleting the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume and replacing the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the secondary volume, by the second node.
8 . A method for managing a storage system including a plurality of nodes each including a processor, the method comprising:
providing a primary volume configured to provide a logical storage area to a host in a first node;
providing a secondary volume configured to create a remote copy pair with the primary volume in a second node and setting the remote copy using identification information on the primary volume and identification information on the secondary volume by the second node;
providing a migration destination volume to be a migration destination when migration is performed with the primary volume as a migration source volume in a third node;
creating, by the second node, a new pair between the secondary volume and the migration destination volume when receiving a new pair creating request in which the identification information on the primary volume, the identification information on the secondary volume, and information identifying the third node are designated; and
deleting the pair of the secondary volume and the primary volume and replacing the identification information on the migration destination volume with the identification information on the primary volume, by the first node.
