Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first determiner, a second determiner, and third determiner. The first determiner determines, when a second virtual machine of a migration destination is generated from a first virtual machine of a migration source, whether a first generating definition representing a specification of the first virtual machine matches a second generating definition representing a specification of the second virtual machine. The second determiner determines whether first version information representing a version of software having been installed in the first virtual machine matches second version information representing a version of software having been installed in the second virtual machine.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a memory and a processor. The processor obtains physical resource information on a usage amount of a physical resource used by each of a plurality of virtual machines, classifies the plurality of virtual machines into one or more groups based on the obtained physical resource information, obtains application information on patch programs applied to the virtual machine, compares the application information between the virtual machines classified into a group, and extracts, based on the result of the comparing, a patch program to be applied to the virtual machine to which the extracted patch program is not applied although the extracted patch program is applied to other virtual machine classified into the same group with the virtual machine.

Abstract: When a failure of a reply in response to a packet is detected, A terminal apparatus transmits, to a stand-by information processing apparatus, multiple packets in which multiple divided command statements are attached to header areas thereof, the divided command statements being obtained by dividing into multiple statements a command statement for a switch command to switch from a currently-operated information processing apparatus to the stand-by information processing apparatus. The stand-by information processing apparatus stores each of the divided command statements that are attached to the packets that are transmitted from the terminal apparatus. The stand-by information processing apparatus performs a switch operation to switch from the currently-operated information processing apparatus to the stand-by the information processing apparatus in accordance with the switch command that is generated from the stored divided command statements.

Abstract: A controlling method realized by a computer connected to a plurality of physical devices in which respective virtual machines (VMs) are operated and a process device which is connected to the plurality of physical devices with a plurality of routes and in which a plurality of duplication process VMs for executing a duplication process of duplicating data used by the plurality of VMs to a memory device, the method includes: acquiring loads of the plurality of routes and percentages of completion of the duplication process executed by the plurality of duplication process VMs; and, when incompletion of the duplication process using the selected route within a regulated time is detected, moving any of the duplication process VMs using the selected route to any of the plurality of physical devices from the process device.
