Computer system, storage management computer, and storage management method

A management computer connected to a computer and a storage apparatus, the management computer comprising:

• a memory configured to store first configuration information indicating a plurality of logical storage areas provided by the storage apparatus and a first condition defining a state of the storage apparatus as a trigger for the storage apparatus to move data in one of the plurality of logical storage areas to another one of the plurality of logical storage areas;
• a CPU connected to the memory;
• and
• a network interface for communication between the computer and the storage apparatus, wherein
• the CPU is configured to
• acquire a second condition defining a state of the computer as a trigger for the computer to move a first object, which is stored in a first logical storage area among the plurality of logical storage areas and performed by the computer, to another one of the plurality of logical storage areas,
• acquire second configuration information associating the first object and the first logical storage area,
• acquire, from the storage apparatus, first state information indicating a state of the plurality of logical storage areas,
• acquire, from the computer, second state information indicating a state of the first object,
• determine whether a state of performing data movement from the first logical storage area to another logical storage area is set based on the first condition, the second condition, the first state information, and the second state information, and
• identify a cause of the state of performing the data movement based on the first configuration information and the second configuration information to control the data movement based on the cause if the state of performing the data movement is set, and
• the plurality of logical storage areas respectively use a plurality of storage media with different performances.
