COMPUTER SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A computer system to be managed by an integrated management subsystem recognizing a SAN, the computer system comprising:
- a storage component storing data;
a first processing component coupled to the storage component;
a plurality of second processing components, which are coupled to the first processing component via PCI-Express connections, and which issue access commands to access the data stored in the storage component via the first processing component; and
a management mean configured to provide emulated SAN connections between the first processing component and the second processing components which corresponds to the PCI-Express connections between the first processing component and the second processing components, to the integrated management subsystem.

Abstract
A computer system includes a first server computer, a second server computer, a nonvolatile memory device, and a storage controller connected to the first server computer and the second server computer via PCI-Express, and connected to the nonvolatile memory device. The storage controller provides a storage area in the nonvolatile memory device as a shared data area for the first server computer and the second server computer. A server computer, which is each of the first and second server computers, stores a program that issues an NVM-Express command that is a command conforming to an NVM-Express standard. The program instructs the server computer to access the shared data area via PCI-Express by instructing the server computer to issue the NVM-Express command that specifies a namespace associated with the shared data area.
