A storage management server collects, stores and displays positions, temperatures and temperature threshold values of physical storage devices from a storage apparatus. It collects, stores and displays positions and power consumptions of variable factor generation sources which are factors that cause the physical storage devices to vary in operation environments, and also calculates the influenceability by variable factor generation sources against the physical storage devices and affected temperatures thereof. It compares the temperature of a given physical storage device to a temperature threshold value of this physical storage device or compares it to an affected temperature thereof due to the variable factor generation sources, thereby moving, for data transfer, an operation position of physical storage device based on a comparison result at such time.
A storage management server coupled to a storage apparatus having physical storage devices and dependent operational devices rendered operative depending on activation of said physical storage devices, comprising:
