PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To safely manage a mirror of a volume between remote sites for providing a means for backup and recovery. SOLUTION: In this method for backup and recovery, a first storage subsystem connected to a first host and a second storage subsystem connected to a second host are used, and the first host and the second host are connected together via a path. A fist logic volume is arranged in the first storage subsystem, while a second logic and a third logic volume are stored in the second storage subsystem. The second logic volume copies the first logic volume to be in a synchronous condition with the first logic volume. The third volume copies the second logic volume. A recovery means places the third logic volume on the second logic volume, reads a file to be recovered from the third volume in the second host, writes the file in the second volume, and the first volume is synchronized again with the second volume.
