Abstract
A first computer server included in a cluster system includes a plurality of network interfaces, a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor retrieves a first Internet Protocol (IP) address and a second IP address from the memory. The processor initiates a first communication process with a second computer server included in the cluster system via a first network interface of the plurality of network interfaces. The processor sets the first IP address to the first network interface when the first communication process enables communication with the second computer server. The processor initiates, using the first IP address, a second communication process with a first device having the second IP address via the first network interface. The processor obtains a type of the first device and outputs information on the type of the first device in association with information on the first network interface.
