When an event occurs in a storage system that is not recognized by a host, it is not possible to recover data at the point before and after this event. Provided is a storage system including a first storage area storing data to be used by a computer, and a second storage area for storing updated data and its update log information when there is an update request from the computer to the first storage area. This storage system monitors its own storage system and detects an event, and creates a recovery point and its update log information based on the event. When the storage system receives a recovery command at a certain recovery point, it recovers data of the first storage area at the time of recovery point by writing, in a replication storage area at a certain point of the first storage area, update data up to the recovery point among the update data stored in the second storage area.
