Abstract

File migration is allowed to be properly performed while suppressing an adverse effect caused by the migration on other users. A first server apparatus 3a is communicatively coupled to a first storage apparatus 10a, and a second server apparatus 3b that is communicatively coupled to a second storage apparatus 10b, and performs management based on user quota such that a file owned by a user having a used amount exceeding a threshold based on the user quota is set as a target of migration to the second storage apparatus 10b. A file used by a plurality of users out of the files set as targets of migration is excluded from a target of the management based on user quota, and is set as a target of management based on a file quota that is the user quota supplied from a plurality of users who use the file. If the capacity of the file exceeds the file quota, the file is again set to a target of the management based on user quota.
