<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To propose a storage system and its power source control method and an adapter device and its power source control method and a storage controller and its control method for improving reliability in simple configurations. <P>SOLUTION: In a storage system and its power source control method, a storage controller transmits a predetermined activation completion signal to an adapter device after its activation, and the adapter device is activated after receiving the activation completion signal from the storage controller. Also, the adapter device transfers cache data to the storage controller after the stop of its activation, and transmits a predetermined first signal to the storage controller, and the storage controller makes a storage device store the cache data in response to the first signal from the adapter device, and stops its activation after transmitting a predetermined second signal to the adapter device, and the adapter device stops its activation after receiving the second signal. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
