Abstract
A management computer stores an operation requirement of a virtual machine and a scheme of a first configuration change executed by a host computer or a storage apparatus. The management computer determines whether a second configuration change configured so as to be executed automatically in the host computer or the storage apparatus is executed. If it is determined that the second configuration change is executed, the management computer predicts a performance index value concerning a prescribed performance index for the computer or the storage apparatus when executing the second configuration change. The management computer determines whether an anticipated effect value of the configuration change scheme is satisfied based on the predicted performance index value, and creates a substitution plan satisfying both an operation requirement and an anticipated effect value of the virtual machine where it is determined that the anticipated effect value is not satisfied.
