File management program, file management apparatus and file management method
First Claim
1. A file management program allowing a computer to manage files on a plurality of file systems, the program allowing the computer to execute:
- a file information retrieve step that acquires the file information of source files on source file system and records the acquired file information as a file information event;
a file operation trace step that acquires the information of file operation made for the source files and records the acquired file operation as a file operation event; and
a namespace replication step that generates, based on the file information event and file operation event, a namespace replication database in which the namespace of the source files has been replicated logically.

Abstract
The present invention has been made to provide a file management program, a file management apparatus, and a file management method capable of migrating files between file systems while an application program is being run. A file management program allowing a computer to manage files on a plurality of file systems, the program allowing the computer to execute: a file information retrieve step that acquires the file information of source files on source file system and records the acquired file information as a file information event; a file operation trace step that acquires the information of file operation made for the source files and records the acquired file operation as a file operation event; and a namespace replication step that generates, based on the file information event and file operation event, a namespace replication database in which the namespace of the source files has been replicated logically.
