Patent number: 9712404Abstract: In performance estimation when the configuration of a computer system is changed, the influence, on performance, of a temporary increase in load to a computer system due to reallocation of a process request allocated to a degenerated server to another server as a result of server degeneration is taken into consideration. In an embodiment, an information processing device which evaluates the performance of the computer system estimates the performance of the computer system when operation of a server included in the computer system is stopped based on the throughput required for the server at the time of operation stop and outputs the estimated performance of the computer system.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2014Date of Patent: July 18, 2017Assignee: HITACHI, LTD.Inventors: Nobuaki Ozaki, Daisuke Iizuka
