Abstract:
1. A storage management system for managing source storage apparatuses including source volumes and a destination storage apparatus to which the source volumes are migrated, the storage management system comprising: a processor; an input device; a display device; and a memory device, the memory device holding: wherein the processor determines source volume groups to which the source volumes belong based on the volume management information, wherein the processor determines sizes of volumes to be allocated from the storage device groups to the destination pools based on the destination pool configuration management information, wherein the processor determines sizes of volumes to be migrated from the source volume groups to the destination pools based on the volume migration configuration management information, wherein the processor creates image data indicating information on the determined sizes of volumes to be allocated and the sizes of volumes to be migrated, wherein the processor outputs the image data to the display device, wherein the image displayed with the image data includes sections each indicating information on one of the destination pools, wherein each of the sections is a column or a row consisting of a plurality of cells, wherein each of the sections includes a first subsection and a second subsection, wherein each cell in the first subsection indicates a size of volumes to be migrated from one of the source volume groups, and wherein each cell of the second subsection indicates a size of volumes to be allocated from one of the storage device groups.
