Method and information processing apparatus for extracting software correction patch for virtual machine

摘要

A management server refers to a server information management DB that stores therein information on a plurality of virtual servers generated from a plurality of virtual images and information on software that operates on the virtual servers, and selects other virtual server in conjunction with a particular virtual server from the plurality of virtual servers based on information on the particular virtual server generated from a predetermined virtual image and information on software that operates on the particular virtual server. The management server extracts a patch to be applied to the particular virtual server based on patches applied to the other virtual server.
