Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a plurality of controller modules capable of performing communications with each other, and a memory included in each controller module to be stored with status information reflecting a status of an error occurring during the communications with other controller modules with respect to the controller module of a communication partner apparatus and/or the controller module of the self-apparatus, wherein, when determining whether or not a fault occurs in a certain controller module in the plurality of controller modules, the controller module different from a determination target controller module determines, based on status information of the determination target controller module that is stored on the memories of two or more controller modules different from the determination target controller module, whether the fault occurs in the determination target controller module.
