Abstract

See full text

In a storage area network (SAN), when a host accesses a storage system, the host is certified to restrict any unauthorized access. The storage system includes an access setting section and a certifying section to restrict accesses from respective hosts. When a host accesses data on a disk, the host issues an inquiry to a file server program of a host to receive information of a physical location of a file containing the data on the disk. The host accesses the disk according to the information. Simultaneously, the file server program allows, by a disk management program, the access to the area specified by the access request from the host.
