Summary:PURPOSE: A scheduler-based data replication method is provided to improve the speed and performance of data processing and secure a massive storage system's availability by scheduling a data processing process based on the status of the data servers which engage in a data replication process. CONSTITUTION: The necessary information is prepared for data replication processing. A request is issued in order to duplicate the items including the necessary data on a data replication list on order. The data replication request is inputted in a processing list and the data replication process proceeds. Upon a processing completion signal, the request is deleted from a queue and a meta database is renewed reflecting the result of the completed data replication process.
