Abstract: Disclosed is a storage system that achieves performance improvement, quality enhancement, and function addition requiring a drive data layout change while maintaining I/O functionality. The storage system creates a redundancy group for forming a redundant configuration of data to be stored in a storage drive, and stores data of the redundancy group in a plurality of the storage drives. A processor in a storage node discards data stored in a unit storage area, recovers the discarded data according to a changed data format, and re-stores the recovered data in the storage drive. The processor in the storage node performs an I/O process on the data to be discarded during a data format change, by achieving recovery based on the data of the redundancy group that is stored in an area other than the unit storage area where the data format is to be changed.

Abstract: A volume to be accessed by a host is provided. A reliability policy related to data reliability and a performance policy related to response performance to an access to the volume are set in the volume. A node that processes redundant data of data for a node that processes the data related to the volume is determined based on the reliability policy. The determined node returns a result of an access to the volume from the host according to the performance policy.

Abstract: An access control system stores information defining conditions under which each user is allowed to perform resource access .

For the node having the parity area, there is parity part difference information including the information indicating whether or not to be in the presence of difference for each parity area of the node. Out of the parity part difference information, the information corresponding to the parity area is the information indicating the presence of difference when there is the information indicating the presence of difference in the storage area of any of the data sets used for generating the parity stored in the parity area.
