A management server acquires software configuration information, hardware configuration information, and operation achievement information from each server system; generates server operation achievement information for managing operation achievements of each server system based on each acquired information; generates server operation achievement statistic information by aggregating the software configuration information about each server system based on the generated server operation achievement information; and, upon receipt of a software configuration decision request from a requestor server system, selects the software configuration information which matches a hardware configuration of the requestor server system, from the server operation achievement statistic information.

Computer system, computer system information processing method, and information processing program

The management of computers connected with I/O switch devices is simplified. A computer system S includes one or several computers (server devices), one or several I/O devices, one or several I/O switch devices, and a management server. Management serveris provided with a storage part storing I/O configuration information and I/O switch management information; and a processing part comparing pieces of I/O configuration information and pieces of I/O switch management information, judging whether there might be a mismatch in the connection configuration between a computer and an I/O device and, in case it is judged that there is a mismatch, terminating the activation for a computer having the mismatched connection configuration, allocating a substitutable I/O device, and updating said I/O switch management information.
