A method is provided for efficiently managing the connection of processor modules and input/output interface modules at a drastically reduced cost. A management server searches IFT and ST tables after receiving an instruction from the system management server to connect an input/output interface module to a processor, creates a condition list requested by the input/output interface module, and selects an input/output interface matching the condition list JL from an unassigned input/output interface module management table UNT. The management server next instructs the input/output interface switch to connect the processor with the selected input/output interface. The management server instructs the input/output device management server and the network management server to setup a connection utilizing the selected input/output interface, and rewrites the tables UNT and SPT.
