Database control method

摘要

The present invention aims to dynamically re-configure hosts and storage in a shared-nothing database. In the shared-nothing database, processes 24 to 29 executed in the hosts 11 to 14 access data of a storage device 30. A system manager 70 and a database manager 10 manage the hosts 11 to 14 and the storage device 30. The processes 24 to 29 access one or more disks 51 to 54 of the storage device. To add or reduce the number of the hosts, the processes 24 to 29 are reassigned among the hosts 11 to 14.
