摘要

Provided is an impact analysis method in which a management computer acquires configuration information that defines configuration elements of the hardware and configuration elements of the software, and relation information between the configuration elements of the hardware and the configuration elements of the software, influence definition information that defines influences among the configuration elements of the configuration information, in time-series information that defines information related to operation of the software in time-series, and determines an influence of the configuration elements of the hardware on the configuration elements of the software on a basis of operation states in time-series defined by the time-series information from the relation information and the influence definition information to determine a configuration element of the software that is influenced by the hardware among the configuration elements of the software in the time band.
