The present invention allows a reserved state that prevails for an LDEV as a result of a host undergoing a system shutdown or the like to be confirmed and cancelled easily. The server 1 reserves the LDEV 4 and uses same exclusively. When the server 1 undergoes a system shutdown due to a fault or similar (S1), the LDEV 4 then remains reserved (S2). The server 2 is therefore unable to access the LDEV 4. The system administrator reads exclusive control information 6 in the memory 5 via the management terminal 7, and is thus able to display the reserved states of respective LDEVs on a terminal screen and confirm these states. The user then issues an instruction to cancel a reserved state from the management terminal 7 (S3). The disk array device 3 receives the cancellation instruction, and then cancels the reserved state by partially rewriting the exclusive control information 6.
