In a data processing system which runs a plurality of operating systems, a channel device can be shared by the plurality of operating systems. In addition, a channel device which supports port multiplexing can also be shared by a plurality of operating systems. The channel device includes a plurality of IDs each indicating that the channel device is a medium for performing input/output processing, and an input/output processing controller for assigning one operating system to each of the IDs, and controlling a data transfer independently for each ID to control a plurality of data transfers. Further, in a channel device which has a plurality of ports, an input/output processing controller is provided for assigning an operating system to each of the ports, and transferring data independently for each port to control the plurality of ports.
