- the virtual drive control unit 110 When the virtual drive control unit 110 receives a file access request from the user, the virtual drive control unit 110 searches for and transmits a physical file in the storage 6 in response to the file access request. When a file update request is received from the user, the file is updated and its update history is registered in the operation history management database 230. Further, when a file access error occurs, recovery processing described later is executed using the backed up file.
- the backup control unit 120 is for managing backup of files stored in the master virtual drive 5a.
- the backup control unit 120 creates backups of files stored in the master virtual drive 5a in the backup virtual drive 5b by periodically executing backup processing.

- the meta database 210a for the master virtual drive 5a and the meta database 210b for the backup virtual drive 5b are linked by a file ID, thereby associating the master data with the backup data. For example, if there is a specific file to which a specific file ID (eg, “1”) is assigned in the meta database 210a for the master virtual drive 5a, the specific file ID (in the meta database 210b for the backup virtual drive 5b) A file to which “1”) is allocated is backup data of the specific file. For this reason, when it is desired to obtain a backup file corresponding to a specific master file, the meta database 210b for the backup virtual drive 5b may be searched based on the file ID of the specific master file. Similarly, when it is desired to acquire a master file corresponding to a specific backup file, the meta database 210a for the master virtual drive 5a may be searched based on the file ID of the specific backup file.
- a specific file ID e.g, “1”
- the data held by the meta database 210 is not limited to the above, and may include data such as creation date / time, access date / time, file attribute, access right information, and the like.

- the backup control unit 120 By registering an unbackup file in the backup status management database 220, the backup control unit 120 refers to the registered information, and the necessary backup is executed.
- the operation history management database 230 is for managing a file operation history by a user.
- the virtual drive control unit 110 when the virtual drive control unit 110 updates a file, the update history is registered in the operation history management database 230. Then, the virtual drive control unit 110 periodically checks the operation history management database 230 and registers files that need to be backed up in the backup status management database 220. Thus, only the updated file is registered as a backup target.
- File access processing First, file access processing in the present embodiment will be described. In this description, a case where any one of the user terminals 2 accesses a file stored on the virtual drive 5 in FIG. 1 is taken as an example.
- the file management server 4 receives a file access request from the user terminal 2 via the communication network 3.
- the file is specified using a directory path on the virtual drive 5 (for example, “V: ⁇ SomeFolder ⁇ file_a”).
- the virtual drive control unit 110 accepts this file access request via the network control unit 150.

- step S101 the virtual drive control unit 110 searches the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a using the received directory path (V: ⁇ SomeFolder ⁇ file_a) on the virtual drive 5 as a key, and matches the search key. Get file information.
- the virtual path (path on the virtual drive 5) included in the acquired file information has the same value as the directory path transmitted by the user terminal 2, the virtual drive control unit 110 overwrites the file with the request from the user terminal 2 It is determined that the update is made, and the physical file stored in the path on the storage 6 is overwritten and updated with new binary data transmitted by the user terminal 2. Then, the process proceeds to step S102.
- step S102 the file management server 4 registers the file ID of the updated file in the operation history management database 230. Then, the process proceeds to step S103.
- step S103 a file update completion notification is transmitted to the user terminal 2 via the network control unit 150 in order to notify the user that the file update has been completed. Then, the file update process is completed.
- the backup registration process in this embodiment is executed by the virtual drive control unit 110 and is a process for registering a backup target file.
- step S200 shown in FIG. 4 the virtual drive control unit 110 registers all files under the management of the master virtual drive 5a in the backup state management database 220 as unbacked up. That is, since no backup exists in the initial state, all files are registered as backup targets in order to execute a full backup. Then, the process proceeds to step S201.
- step S201 the virtual drive control unit 110 waits until the regular processing standby time. Then, the process proceeds to step S202.
- step S202 the regular backup registration is executed when the regular processing standby time has elapsed.
- the virtual drive control unit 110 acquires the file ID registered in the operation history management database 230, and registers or updates the data corresponding to the file ID on the backup status management database 220 as “not backed up”. Then, the process returns to step S201, and waits until the regular processing standby time elapses again (that is, until the next regular execution).
- the backup process in the present embodiment is executed by the backup control unit 120, and is a process periodically executed in a predetermined periodic process execution time zone set in advance.
- the regular processing execution time zone can be arbitrarily set by a system administrator or the like.
- the backup processing can be executed by specifying a specific time on a specific day of the week (such as 24:00 to 5:00 in the morning on weekdays). . All time zones can also be specified as the periodic processing execution time zone. In this case, the backup processing is always running, so that backup can be executed in real time.
- step S300 shown in FIG. 5 it is checked whether it is a periodic processing execution time zone. If it is the periodic process execution time zone, the process proceeds to step S301. On the other hand, if it is not the regular process execution time zone, the process returns to step S300 and waits until the regular process execution time zone.
- step S301 the backup status management database 220 is referred to and it is confirmed whether there is a file registered as an unbackup. If there is a file registered as a non-backup, the process proceeds to step S302. On the other hand, if there is no file registered as unbacked up, the process returns to step S300.
- step S302 the backup control unit 120 monitors the load of the file management server 4 (for example, CPU usage rate, memory usage, disk I / O, network I / O, or a combination thereof), and It is checked whether or not a set allowable value of each parameter (for example, CPU usage rate 50%, memory usage 1 GB, disk I / O 10 Mbps, network I / O 10 Mbps, etc.) is exceeded. If the allowable value is exceeded, the process returns to step S300. On the other hand, if the allowable value is not exceeded, the process proceeds to step S303.
- the file management server 4 for example, CPU usage rate, memory usage, disk I / O, network I / O, or a combination thereof.
- step S303 the backup control unit 120 searches the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a using the information (file ID, etc.) of the file registered as non-backup in the backup status management database 220 and registers it as the non-backup.
- the link information (such as URL) for accessing the physical file corresponding to the file is acquired. Then, the process proceeds to step S304.
- step S304 the backup control unit 120 accesses the physical file based on the link information acquired in step S303, and creates a backup of the physical file.
- the backup storage destination is any one of the storages 6 constituting the backup storage group 8, and which storage 6 is stored is determined by the virtual drive control unit 110 in consideration of the usage status of the storage 6. Then, the process proceeds to step S305.
- step S305 the backup control unit 120 notifies the virtual drive control unit 110 that the backup has been completed.
- the file ID of the file that has been backed up is notified.
- the virtual drive control unit 110 acquires data related to the file that has been backed up on the backup status management database 220 using the file ID as a key, and changes the status of the data from “not backed up” to “ Update to “Backup Complete”. Further, the virtual drive control unit 110 updates the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b in order to associate the backup source file with the backup destination file.
- the data of the notified file ID does not exist in the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b (in the case of the first backup)
- data is newly created with the file ID and the meta data of the backup virtual drive 5b is created.
- the data of the notified file ID already exists in the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b (in the case of backup by overwriting)
- the physical path of the data is rewritten as necessary. If the physical path has not been changed, it is not necessary to rewrite the physical path.
- step S300 the process returns to step S300, and this operation is repeated until the regular process execution time period ends.
- the backup process is continued as long as there is an unbacked file in the regular process execution time zone.
- files are backed up with reference to the backup status management database 220 and the meta database 210, so the meta database 210 of the virtual file system is also used from the backup processing side.
- backup can be performed efficiently.
- differential management is performed in real time in the backup status management database 220, an update file can be detected simply by referring to the backup status management database 220. That is, since it is not necessary to execute a difference detection process for comparison with past backup data that has been acquired when performing backup, the processing steps can be shortened. When using conventional backup software, all the data was read by the difference detection process described above, so it was necessary to avoid the business hours when the system load was low and perform "timed execution" at night. According to the present embodiment, since the difference can be detected with a low load without reading all data, a highly flexible operation such as performing backup processing during business hours is possible.
- the recovery process in the present embodiment is executed by the virtual drive control unit 110, and when a file access error occurs, the backup file corresponding to the error target file is obtained by referring to the meta database 210 to obtain a file. Is to restore.
- step S400 shown in FIG. 6 the file management server 4 receives a file access request from the user terminal 2 via the network control unit 150. Then, the process proceeds to step S401.
- step S401 the virtual drive control unit 110 searches the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a using the directory path on the virtual drive 5 included in the file access request as a key, and acquires file information that matches the search key.
- the virtual drive control unit 110 accesses a physical file stored on the storage 6 based on a physical path (path on the storage 6) included in the acquired file information.
- the process proceeds to step S402 to execute a recovery process.
- the virtual drive control unit 110 transmits the accessed physical file to the user terminal 2 and ends the process.
- step S402 the virtual drive control unit 110 refers to the backup status management database 220 and checks whether the error target file has been backed up. If it has been backed up, the process proceeds to step S404. On the other hand, if the latest version has not been backed up, the process proceeds to step S403, an error is transmitted to the user terminal 2, and the process ends.
- step S404 the virtual drive control unit 110 refers to the meta database 210 and acquires backed up physical file data (backup file). Specifically, the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b is searched using the file ID of the file that caused the file access error as a key, and the physical path of the backup file is acquired. Then, the process proceeds to step S405.
- step S405 it is checked whether the capacity of the restored file is equal to or greater than a threshold value. If the capacity of the file is not equal to or greater than the threshold value, the process proceeds to step S406, and recovery processing is executed by synchronous execution. On the other hand, if the file capacity is greater than or equal to the threshold, the process proceeds to step S408, and the recovery process is executed asynchronously.
- step S406 the backup file is copied based on the physical path of the backup file acquired in step S404 to create a restored file.
- the restoration destination is any one of the storages 6 constituting the master storage group 7, and the virtual drive control unit 110 determines which storage 6 is to be saved in consideration of the usage status of the storage 6 and the like.
- the link information in the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is rewritten, and the directory path on the virtual drive 5 that has caused the file access error (the file access request transmitted from the user terminal 2 in step S400).
- the directory path on the included virtual drive 5) and the restored physical file are linked. That is, the physical path of the file information related to the error target file is updated to the physical path of the restoration file. Then, the process proceeds to step S407.
- step S407 the virtual drive control unit 110 transmits the restored physical file to the user terminal 2 and ends the process.
- step S408 the physical file data acquired in step S404 is transmitted to the user terminal 2. Since the physical file is transmitted as a reference only, if the request from the user terminal 2 is a write process, an error is returned. Then, the process proceeds to step S409.
- step S409 the file information related to the file access error is registered in the recovery queue so as to be the target of asynchronous recovery processing. Then, the process ends.
- FIG. 7 is a diagram showing asynchronous recovery processing. This asynchronous recovery process is provided in order to maintain good user responsiveness by performing a delayed restoration when a file to be restored is large.
- step S500 In the asynchronous recovery process, first, in step S500 shown in FIG. 7, it is checked whether or not it is a preset periodic process execution time zone. If it is the periodic process execution time zone, the process proceeds to step S501. On the other hand, if it is not the regular process execution time zone, the process returns to step S500 and waits until the regular process execution time zone.
- the periodic processing execution time zone of the asynchronous recovery processing is a time zone that can be arbitrarily set by a system administrator or the like, similarly to the periodic processing execution time zone of the backup processing. Then, the process proceeds to step S501.
- step S501 the virtual drive control unit 110 refers to the recovery queue. Then, the process proceeds to step S502.
- step S502 it is checked whether there is data registered in the recovery queue. If there is data registered in the recovery queue, the process proceeds to step S502. On the other hand, if there is no data registered in the recovery queue, the process returns to step S500.
- the virtual drive control unit 110 refers to the meta database 210 and acquires the physical path of the backed up physical file data (backup file) based on the data registered in the recovery queue. More specifically, the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b is searched using the file ID registered in the recovery queue as a key, and the physical path of the backup file is acquired. Then, a backup file is copied based on the acquired physical path to create a restoration file.
- the restoration destination is any one of the storages 6 constituting the master storage group 7, and the virtual drive control unit 110 determines which storage 6 is to be saved in consideration of the usage status of the storage 6 and the like.
- the link information in the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is rewritten, and the directory path on the virtual drive 5 that has caused the file access error (the file access request transmitted from the user terminal 2 in step S400).
- the directory path on the included virtual drive 5) and the restored physical file are linked. That is, the physical path of the file information related to the error target file is updated to the physical path of the restoration file.
- the system administrator automatically restores a file triggered by an error when the master virtual drive 5a accesses the physical storage 6, so that the system administrator Files can be restored without a restore operation.
- a backup file is copied to create a restoration file, and then the meta database 210 is rewritten to update the link to the error target file to the link to the restoration file, resulting in the occurrence of a file access error.
- Only recovered files can be the target of recovery processing. As a result, the recovery process can be completed in a short time, and the recovery waiting time of the user who attempted to access the error file can be shortened. Further, since other files are not affected during the execution of the recovery process, it is possible to prevent the end users other than the user who attempted to access the error file from being affected.
- the error target file is the target of restoration, but files other than the error target file may be the target of restoration.
- the entire storage 6 storing the error target file may be the target of restoration.
- the master storage recovery process in this embodiment is executed by the storage recovery control unit 140.
- the storage 6 constituting the master storage group 7 the storage 6 in which the failure has occurred. This process restores the managed data from the backup data.
- step S600 shown in FIG. 8 the storage recovery control unit 140 receives a forced removal processing request for the storage 6. This forcible removal processing request is output in response to the storage administrator's removal operation being executed by the system administrator. Then, the process proceeds to step S601.
- step S601 the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is updated so that the status of the data included in the storage 6 to be removed becomes “forcibly removing”.
- the backup data is transmitted exclusively for reference or a file access error is transmitted. Then, the process proceeds to step S602.
- step S602 the file information of the files managed in the storage 6 to be removed is extracted from the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a. Since the extracted file information includes a file ID, access information to the backup data is acquired based on the file ID. Specifically, the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b is searched using the file ID as a key, and the physical path of the backup file is acquired. Then, the process proceeds to step S603.
- step S603 the backup data acquired based on the physical path of the backup file is transferred to another storage 6 (that is, the master storage group 7) that constitutes the same virtual drive 5 (that is, the master virtual drive 5a) as the storage 6 to be removed. Copy to the included storage 6).
- the link information of the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is rewritten so that the data copied to the other storage 6 can be accessed.
- the physical path included in the file information related to the copied file is rewritten so as to indicate the copied data.
- the copy data of the data included in the storage 6 in which the failure has occurred is acquired, and the copy data is stored in another storage that constitutes the master virtual drive 5a. 6 and the link information of the meta database 210 is rewritten. For this reason, when a failure occurs in a specific storage 6 of the master storage group 7, only the files stored in the failed storage 6 are restored from the backup without restoring the entire master virtual drive 5a. By doing so, it is possible to limit the restoration handling files and recover efficiently (short time). As a result, the recovery standby time of the user who attempted to access the storage 6 where the failure has occurred is shortened. Further, since other files are not affected during the execution of the recovery process, it is possible to prevent the end users other than the user who attempted to access the storage 6 where the failure occurred from being affected.
- the target file is automatically restored from the backup data to the free space of the master virtual drive 5a, so the data from the failed storage 6 is salvaged. Can be disconnected immediately.
- the backup storage recovery process in the present embodiment is executed by the storage recovery control unit 140.
- the storage 6 constituting the backup storage group 8 the storage 6 in which the failure has occurred. This process restores the managed data from the master data.
- step S700 shown in FIG. 9 the storage recovery control unit 140 receives a forced removal processing request for the storage 6. This forcible removal processing request is output when the user performs the removal operation of the storage 6. Then, the process proceeds to step S701.
- step S701 the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b is updated so that the status of the data included in the storage 6 to be removed becomes “forcibly removing”. Note that if it becomes necessary to access data included in the storage 6 "forcibly removing", the backup data is returned for reference only or a file access error is returned. Then, the process proceeds to step S702.
- step S702 the file information of the file managed in the storage 6 to be removed is extracted from the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b. Since the extracted file information includes a file ID, access information to the master data is acquired based on the file ID. Specifically, the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is searched using the file ID as a key, and the physical path of the master file is acquired. Then, the process proceeds to step S703.
- step S703 the master data acquired based on the physical path of the master file is transferred to another storage 6 (that is, the backup storage group 8) that constitutes the same virtual drive 5 (that is, the backup virtual drive 5b) as the storage 6 to be removed. Copy to the included storage 6).
- the backup storage group 8 that constitutes the same virtual drive 5 (that is, the backup virtual drive 5b) as the storage 6 to be removed. Copy to the included storage 6).
- the link information of the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b is rewritten so that the data copied to the other storage 6 can be accessed.
- the physical path included in the file information related to the copied file is rewritten so as to indicate the copied data.
- the copy data of the data included in the storage 6 in which the failure has occurred is acquired, and the copy data is used as another storage that constitutes the backup virtual drive 5b. 6 and the link information of the meta database 210 is rewritten. Therefore, when a failure occurs in the specific storage 6 of the backup storage group 8, only the files saved in the failed storage 6 are copied from the master without restoring the entire backup virtual drive 5b. Thus, it is possible to limit the restoration handling files and recover efficiently (short time). As a result, the recovery standby time of the user who attempted to access the storage 6 where the failure has occurred is shortened. Further, since other files are not affected during the execution of the recovery process, it is possible to prevent the end users other than the user who attempted to access the storage 6 where the failure occurred from being affected.
- the target file is automatically restored from the backup data to the free space of the backup virtual drive 5b, so that the data from the failed storage 6 is salvaged. Can be disconnected immediately.
- the system recovery process in the present embodiment is executed by the system initialization control unit 130, and there is a failure (for example, an unrecoverable system crash or a database storage failure) in which the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is lost.
- a failure for example, an unrecoverable system crash or a database storage failure
- This is a process of restoring the system using data in the backup virtual drive 5b (actually, the backup storage group 8) when it occurs.
- step S800 shown in FIG. 10 the system initialization control unit 130 receives a system recovery request. This system recovery request is output when the user selects system recovery. Then, the process proceeds to step S801.
- step S801 the master management function is initialized. Specifically, the file management system is reinstalled using an installer or the like. Then, the process proceeds to step S802.
- step S802 the backup data included in the backup virtual drive 5b (backup storage group 8) is registered on the master side. Specifically, the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is reconstructed based on the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b. That is, records corresponding to each record (file information) registered in the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b are registered in the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a so as to have the same file ID. Then, the process proceeds to step S803.
- step S803 all data backed up in the backup storage group 8 is extracted from the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b and registered in the recovery queue. The registered data is restored and copied to the master storage group 7 in order by asynchronous execution. At this time, each time a file is restored and copied, the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a is rewritten so that the physical path included in the file information of the file becomes the physical path of the copy destination. Then, the system recovery process ends.
- a backed up file is acquired based on the meta database 210b of the backup virtual drive 5b, and the backed up file is restored and copied.
- the meta database 210a of the master virtual drive 5a can be restored from the backup, even when a failure that cannot be autonomously recovered occurs in the master virtual drive 5a (such as server loss), the state of the master virtual drive 5a is restored from the backup data. be able to.
- the backup process is performed periodically.
- the start timing of the backup process is not limited to this.
- the virtual drive control unit 110 requests the backup control unit 120 to start the backup process, and the backup control unit 120 executes the backup process triggered by the file update. Good. If comprised in this way, a backup process can be performed in real time.
