Patent ID: 8612645

Claim:
An information processing apparatus for managing configuration information indicative of a configuration of resources making up a storage system with which I/O paths are set in a storage device, the information processing apparatus comprising: a monitoring object detecting unit that, upon detecting a change in settings of the I/O paths, extracts resources making up an invalidated I/O path that is invalidated by the change in the settings of the I/O paths as monitoring object resources; a performance information acquiring unit that acquires performance information indicative of performances of the monitoring object resources from the storage system; a performance information monitoring unit that performs a judgment of whether the performance information of the monitoring object resources acquired by the performance information acquiring unit matches a preset policy; and a display unit that displays the performance information of the specified configuration information corresponding to the date and time specified, wherein the preset policy is a policy representative of whether a performance failure is occurring in the monitoring object resource, a judgment of the present policy is made by judging whether or not a metrics value of the monitoring object resources exceeds a preset threshold value in a predetermined period from the date and time when, the invalidated I/O path has become valid to the date and time when the validated I/O path has become invalidated.
