A storage system includes a plurality of storage controllers. The storage controller includes a processor, a memory, and a transfer device that processes control data for controlling an internal operation of the storage system, the control data being transmitted and received between the plurality of storage controllers. The processor accumulates the control data in the memory when a transfer request for the control data is generated, generates a write request for transmitting a plurality of the control data stored in the memory, and transmits the write request to the other storage controller. The transfer device writes a plurality of the control data included in the write request to the memory upon receiving the write request.
A storage system comprising a plurality of storage controllers,
A method for transferring data executed by a storage system in which the storage system includes a plurality of storage controllers, the storage controller including a processor, a memory, and a transfer device that processes control data for controlling an internal operation of the storage system, the control data being transmitted and received between the plurality of storage controllers, the method for transferring data comprising:
A storage system comprising a plurality of storage nodes,
