A data migration management system for preventing alteration such as
rewriting or deletion, and migrating data between storage systems during
an alteration prevention term. This data migration management system
copies data from a logical device of a source storage system to a logical
device of a destination storage system, and sets an alteration prevention
setting for the destination logical device. Once the data migration
management system acquires an alteration prevention status report from
the destination storage system and confirms that the data has been
migrated without alteration, it cancels the alteration prevention setting
of the source storage system.
