Abstract: A policy creation support system is provided, which is capable of reducing cost for creation of an effective autonomic control policy. The policy creation support system measures information indicating performance of a monitoring target system, with regard to a monitoring item of a designated type, for each resource amount of an expandable resource, and selects one representative measurement value from among measurement values on a resource-amount basis. Then, the policy creation support system outputs the monitoring item, the resource amount serving as the monitoring item, and a range of the measurement value corresponding to the resource amount, as a countermeasure decision condition within a policy, by setting a range including the selected representative measurement value as the range of the measurement value.
