Abstract:
A storage control apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute a capacity expansion on a storage group including a plurality of storage devices, generate a plurality of first data storage regions in accordance with the number of storage devices within the storage group after the capacity expansion, and execute data rearrangement within the storage group after the capacity expansion for each of the plurality of first data storage regions.

Claim (Index 4):
The storage control apparatus according to  claim 3 ,\n wherein if the data stored in the plurality of second data storage regions is the first management data, the processor determines the validity of the first management data by migrating the first management data stored in the plurality of second data storage regions within the storage group before the capacity expansion to the temporary storage region for each of the plurality of second data storage regions, wherein the processor reads the first management data from the temporary storage region and writes the read first management data to a buffer if the first management data is valid, wherein the processor updates the second management data to be used to manage the physical addresses of the first management data, and wherein the processor executes the data rearrangement within the storage group after the capacity expansion by writing the first management data written to the buffer back to the plurality of first data storage regions when the buffer becomes full of the first management data.
