FIELD: physics, computer engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to computer engineering. A system for operating a storage service includes schemes for realising a portable storage service, wherein the portable storage service is configured to control virtual hard disk-associated input/output requests for a child partition, wherein the child partition is a runtime environment, wherein the portable storage service is assigned a unique network identifier; schemes for moving the portable storage service to at least another partition; and schemes for configuring the portable storage service as a target storage on the network.
EFFECT: high efficiency of processing input/output requests by providing a portable service for controlling input/output requests with respect to virtual hard disks.
