The present invention suppresses the generation of redundant I/O and
improves the response to the host during data migration. When migrating
data from the migration source volume to the migration destination
volume, the access destination of the host is switched to the second
storage device. When data requested by the host has not yet been
migrated, data is read from the first storage device. When the frequency
of access to the non-migrated area reaches a prescribed value, the target
IP address is changed and discovery is implemented so as to switch the
access destination of the host to the first storage device. When the
frequency of access to the migrated area in the first storage device
reaches a prescribed value, the access destination of the host is
switched to the second storage device. The access destination of the host
is controlled based on the data migration state and access state, and the
generation of redundant I/O can be suppressed.
