Abstract: According to the present invention, it is possible to construct a backup configuration of a particular application data, without influencing data of another application. A management computer is coupled to a host computer on which an application operates, and to a storage apparatus that includes a plurality of volume groups each having one or more logical volumes. At least one of the logical volumes is allocated to the application. The management computer includes a volume group overlapping use determination part and a backup policy determination part. When the backup of the volume group to which one logical volume belongs is configured, the volume group overlapping use determination part determines whether there is another application that uses the volume group. The backup policy determination part determines whether there is set, for another volume group, backup policy information same as that set for the application.

Abstract: The present invention provides a backup method that makes it possible to specify the recovery-enabled time of an application even in a case where a backup has been performed without staticizing the application. In response to a first instruction from a management computer, a storage system backs up a first volume to a second volume at a first time while a first host computer continues to process an application. In response to a second instruction from the management computer, a second host computer reads out the data of the second volume and acquires a second time that is the time at which the application is recovery-enabled. The management computer stores the relationship between the backup and the second time in backup catalog information.

Abstract: Disclosed is a magnetic therapeutic device for use as a wearable article including a necklace to exert a blood flow-promoting effect on a body of a user. The magnetic therapeutic device comprises an elongated flexible magnet portion formed from a mixture of a silicone rubber and a magnetic powder to extend in a given direction, and magnetically polarized, and a flexible sheath portion formed from a silicone rubber to cover over an entire outer periphery of the magnet portion. The magnetic therapeutic device of the present invention can more uniformly apply a magnetic flux to a body of a user.
