Estimating the term…
A storage apparatus and a method for controlling the same, and a computer program product, that can simplify the storage apparatus settings required whenever a storage apparatus is introduced or a new host system is added. With a storage apparatus configured to detect a connection from a new host system having no logical unit assigned thereto, and to assign, if any new host system is detected, a new logical unit to that new host system, it is possible to generate a logical unit and associate it with a relevant host system whenever a storage apparatus is introduced or a new host system is added, without input from a storage apparatus administrator at a management console, and thus it is possible to simplify the storage apparatus settings required whenever a storage apparatus is introduced or a new host system is added.
A storage apparatus for performing data input/output in response to data input/output requests from a host system, with respect to a logical unit assigned to the host system, comprising:
A method for controlling a storage apparatus that performs data input/output in response to data input/output requests from a host system, with respect to a logical unit assigned to the host system, the method comprising the steps of:
A computer program product having a computer-readable recording medium on which is recorded a computer program to be installed in a storage apparatus that performs data input/output in response to data input/output requests from a host system, with respect to a logical unit assigned to the host system, the computer program causing the storage apparatus to execute the steps of:
