Provided is an inter-volume migration system that allows selection of a
relocation-destination volume in consideration of a volume cost. The
inter-volume migration system includes a storage subsystem having one or
more volumes, an inter-volume relocation instruction module that
relocates a data area from a relocation-source volume to a
relocation-destination volume, a cost calculation module that calculates
a cost value of a volume, and a volume selection module that selects a
candidate for the relocation-destination volume based on the cost value
of the volume calculated by the cost calculation module and constraints
imposed on the relocation-destination volume.
