The present invention provides a configuration which can realize both two objects of prevention of performance deterioration and a reduction in storage management cost and shift a volume to a storage device which supports a hierarchical pool. To provide the configuration, a storage managing system acquires access information indicating an access load to a logical volume in a storage subsystem from a device file in a host server as access information in a page unit. The storage managing system acquires, from a storage subsystem having a hierarchical pool function, information concerning the configuration and a capacity of hierarchies of the storage subsystem. A capacity of the logical volume is calculated from the number of pages and a page unit capacity indicated by the access information. The storage managing system calculates, on the basis of information concerning the capacity of the logical volume and information concerning the configuration and the capacity of the hierarchies, a configuration candidate of a hierarchical pool for allocating a storage region for storing data included in the logical volume via the hierarchical pool to a virtual logical pool and outputs the configuration candidate of the hierarchical pool.
