Abstract: A management device includes a processor that determines, upon receiving a request for deletion of a first volume set in a first storage area of a first storage device, whether a second volume different from the first volume is set in the first storage area. The processor detects, when it is determined that the second volume is set, a continuous empty area equal to or larger than the second volume from among storage areas of a second storage device. The processor causes the first storage device to perform the deletion of the first volume from the first storage area, evacuation of data of the second volume to the continuous empty area, and upon completion of the evacuation, migration of the second volume to a migration destination area within the first storage area from the second storage device.

Abstract: A hardware thread causes a SleepID register of a WAKEUP signal generation unit to store a SleepID that identifies the hardware thread when suspending a process due to waiting for a process by another CPU. The WAKEUP signal generation unit causes the WAKEUP data register of the WAKEUP signal generation unit to store a SleepID notified by a node when a process that the hardware thread waits ends. The WAKEUP signal generation unit outputs a WAKEUP signal that cancels the stop of the hardware thread to the hardware thread when the SleepIDs of the SleepID register and the WAKEUP data register agree with each other.
