Benefits of technology

The invention provides an improved way that helps administrators quickly identify if there are any warnings about certain devices being used by their computers or systems. This makes them more efficient at responding to specific issues with these devices.

Problems solved by technology

Technological Problem addressed in this patented technical solution describes a way to manage complex networks containing multiple computers connected over time. One approach involves assigning specific functions within each machine to different areas where they may require them. However, current methods have limitations due to their lack of intuitive programming interfaces and limited capabilities. These issues include difficulty in selecting which memory space needs to use when accessing certain parts of the server, difficulties in determining whether all necessary resources needed during installation work must also exist at other locations around the device being installed. Additionally, existing solutions only provide static settings for storing parameters like maximum capacity values and minimum allowable delay times.

first embodiment

[0040] Hereinafter, explanation will be given on the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 shows configuration of the computer system according to the first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the first embodiment of the present invention includes a management computer 100, a storage apparatus 200, an LAN 300, computers 400(a) and 400(b), and an FC switch 500.

[0041] The management computer 100 is an ordinary computer including a CPU 101, a memory 102, a network interface 103, a display device, a hard disk, a keyboard, a mouse, and the like and capable of operating software including various operating systems. In this embodiment, the management computer 100 is a personal computer. It may also be a computer for workstation and a server or a general-purpose computer. It should be noted that in FIG. 2, other than the CPU 101, the memory 102, and the network interface 103 are omitted.

[0042] The management computer 100 includes a storage allocation section

second embodiment

[0164] Description will now be directed to a second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 12 shows the second embodiment of the present invention. The sections and information equivalent to the storage allocation section 110, the threshold composing section 120, the warning notification section 140, the allocation management section 150, the performance information 160, and the threshold information which are contained in the management computer 100 (see FIG. 2) in the first embodiment are contained in the apparatus in the second embodiment. The storage apparatus 2200 is an extended device of the storage apparatus 200 (see FIG. 2) for containing these sections and information.

[0165] The storage apparatus 220 includes a storage allocation section 2110, a monitoring section 2120, a warning notification section 2140, allocation management information 2150, performance information 2160, and threshold information 2170. These sections and information are equivalent to the sections and i

Abstract

A method for monitoring according to a hint when allocating a storage volume. When a threshold value violation has occurred, judgement is performed from which use purpose the threshold value derives. The management computer for managing a computer system includes a unit for creating a storage volume according to a hint, a unit for deciding a threshold value for managing the storage volume according to the use purpose of the storage volume, a unit for acquiring a performance value from the storage apparatus, and a unit for comparing the acquired performance value to the threshold value and notifying a warning including a message based on the hint when a threshold value violation is detected.
