Abstract
This computer system improves the ease with which a guest OS and remote device can be connected in a configuration combining pass-through technology and bus extension technology. The computer system is provided with a bus extending means for constructing a virtual bus to one or more remote devices connected via a network, and an executing means for configuring a virtual hardware environment and executing a host operating system for causing a guest operating system to control the remote device(s). The bus extending means comprises a communication controlling means for consulting a management table for managing relationships of correspondence between the guest operating system and the remote device(s) by using identification information that does not change depending on the startup state of the remote device(s), and controlling communication between the guest operating system and the remote device(s).
