INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, DATA STORAGE ALLOCATION METHOD, AND MANAGEMENT APPARATUS

摘要

An information processing system includes: information processing apparatuses, each replicating data sent from a host computer according to redundancy designated by the host computer and creating copy data; a first storage system having volume(s) for storing the data and the copy data; and a management apparatus for managing the information processing apparatuses and the first storage system. The information processing system has: an acquisition unit for acquiring volume replication information indicating whether the volumes are to re replicated in volume(s) in a second storage system; a data storage allocation unit for setting, based on the volume replication information, at least one of the information processing apparatuses as an information processing apparatus for storing the data in a volume to be replicated in the second storage system volume; and a transmission unit for transmitting information concerning the information processing apparatus for storing the data to the information processing apparatuses.
