Within a computer network solution a computer process connects and updates itself independently as a participant with a self-chosen ID for and within a network environment. In order to achieve error tolerance in said environment, the process executes a procedure, which comprises the steps of waiting for a heartbeat-message from other participants (4.1.), thereafter investigating, if the own process has the lowest ID among the participants, which have a similar kind of services compared to the own process, on a list of participants (.3.), if this is not the case, letting the process assume a stand-by status (4.4.) and going back to the waiting step (4.5.), if this is the case, investigating, if any other participant, which is on the list of participants, with the same kind of service has assumed the function of, in a network environment, offering, as a primary process, the service in question (4.6.), if this is the case, letting the process announce its readiness to assuming a primary readiness status (4.10.), if this is not the case, letting the process assume a primary status (4.7.), and going back to the waiting step (4.8.).
