<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an architecture of a storage system having high scalability, having little unevenness of performance, and having high fault tolerance, and to provide a control method therefor. <P>SOLUTION: This storage system connected to a host computer has four or more nodes. Each node has: a host interface connected to the host computer communicating with the host computer, and a switch communicating with the host interface. The switch is connected to switches in the other four or less nodes, and communicates with the switches in the the other nodes, so that the nodes are connected in a two-dimensional lattice state. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
