Method and program for creating picture data, and system using the same

A computer for creating picture data necessary to display on a display unit a picture in which two or more items and input columns correspondent with the individual items are provided, wherein the input columns are provided for selecting setting values correspondent with the items from a plurality of setting value candidates which can be correspondent with the items and inputting the selected setting values, and wherein the computer creates picture data necessary for causing the display unit to display a picture in which the mutually different setting value candidates are displayed as defaults in the individual input columns;

• wherein the computer is a memory device controller, the memory device controller is connected communicatively to a plurality of memory volumes for storing data to manage/control the memory volumes, the memory device controller is connected communicatively to an information processing apparatus, and the information processing apparatus includes the display unit, wherein the two or more items are identifiers of two or more copy source memory volumes, the copy source memory volume is a memory volume serving as a copy source of data, the setting value is an identifier of a copy destination memory volume, the copy destination memory volume is a memory volume serving a copy destination of the data of the copy source memory volume, the setting value candidate is a copy destination memory volume candidate, and the copy destination memory volume candidate is a memory volume having the same construction as the copy source memory volume and being able to be a copy destination of the data of the copy source memory volume, and wherein when the picture data is created, the computer creates picture data necessary for causing the display unit of the information processing apparatus to display a picture in which mutually different identifiers of the copy destination memory volume candidates are displayed as defaults in the individual input columns.
