Abstract
A caching control device that controls caching of data stored in a storage device, includes a storing unit that stores information concerning memory allocated to the storage device as its cache memory, where the storing unit is installed in a first computer connected to a second computer via a network, and the second computer manages reading and writing of data to the storage device; and a controller that controls the caching of the data that uses a memory installed in the first computer as cache memory, based on the information stored in the storing unit.
Claims11
A computer-readable recording medium that records therein a computer program to control caching of data stored in a storage device, the cache control program including instructions, which when executed, cause the computer to execute:
- storing, in a storing unit, information concerning memory allocated to the storage device as its cache memory, wherein the storing unit is installed in a first computer connected to a second computer via a network, and the second computer manages reading and writing of data to the storage device;
- and
- controlling the caching of the data that uses a memory installed in the first computer as cache memory, based on the information stored.
