The device of the present invention manages changes in the construction of
a storage system in a unified manner, and optimally disposes resources.
The servers are logically divided into a plurality of virtual servers,
the switches are logically divided into a plurality of zones, and the
storage devices are logically divided into a plurality of virtual storage
devices. The respective logical devices are respectively managed by
respective managing parts. These respective managing parts are connected
to a managing device via a network used for management. The managing
device re-disposes resources in application program units on the basis of
the load states of the respective resources in the storage system.
