Abstract: A storage apparatus performs, in place of a copy process which involves physical resource allocation to a copy destination logical volume, a copy process which allows the copy destination logical volume to refer to an allocation destination managed by a management unit area of a copy source logical volume. A storage unit stores management information relating to the reference destination of the management unit area of the logical volume. A control unit releases the physical resource which has been allocated to the management unit area by exchanging the reference destination of the management unit area specified by a release command from a host computer with the reference destination of the management unit area of the other logical volume corresponding to the specified management unit area.

Abstract: A context information collection and distribution system registers read identification information in a computer device that manages and controls an RFID tag reading device and is located in a lowest hierarchy in wide area network topology. The computer device located in the lowest hierarchy in the wide area network topology notifies a computer device located in a higher management domain hierarchy that the computer device located in the lowest hierarchy manages read identification information of a target. Further, the computer device located in the management domain hierarchy notifies a computer device located in much higher ID system hierarchy that the computer device located in the hierarchy just under the management domain hierarchy manages the read identification information of the target.
