Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to: determine whether or not a difference between a total of power consumption values of physical or virtual computers and a preset upper-limit value satisfies a certain condition; select, in ascending order of priorities stored in a first storage and set based on details of processing executed by the computers, any of the computers as a target whose power consumption is to be reduced, when the difference satisfies the certain condition; and switch the computer selected to a state in which the power consumption is reduced.
