Abstract

See full text

In order to effectively make the grasp of operating conditions of a plurality of servers and a cache management in an information system without increasing a time/labor taken by an administrator, the plurality of servers forms a multi-cast hierarchy dynamically reconstructed by virtue of mutual support and the communication of server status, cache directory and validation is performed on the hierarchy. The administrator has not a need of management for cooperation between servers excepting the designation of some other servers for startup thereof. A cache between servers is shared through the exchange of a cache directory and a validation time is reduced, thereby shortening the response time for users.
