Information processing method, computer-readable recording medium storing information processing program, information processing apparatus, and information processing system

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing an information processing program causing a computer to execute a processing of:

• specifying one or a plurality of first physical resources on which virtual resources used by a first user operate;
• specifying a communication device connected to the first physical resource, and specifying one or a plurality of second physical resources different from the first physical resource, which is connected to the communication device and on which virtual resources used by a user other than the first user operate;
• selecting, in a case where a plurality of the communication devices exists, a shortest communication path among communication paths that connect the plurality of communication devices to each other, and specifying the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path;
• specifying another communication device connected to a wiring plug device to which the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path is connected;
• outputting information that indicates the first physical resource, information that indicates the second physical resource, and information that indicates the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path;
• and
• outputting, in another case where the another communication device is not connected to the first physical resource, the information that indicates the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path and information that indicates the another communication device, in different modes.

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• specify one or a plurality of first physical resources on which virtual resources used by a first user operate;
• specify a communication device connected to the first physical resource and specifying one or a plurality of second physical resources different from the first physical resource, which is connected to the communication device and on which virtual resources used by a user other than the first user operate;
• select, in a case where a plurality of the communication devices exists, a shortest communication path among communication paths that connect the plurality of communication devices to each other, and specifying the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path;
• specify another communication device connected to a wiring plug device to which the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path is connected;
• output information that indicates the first physical resource information that indicates the second physical resource, and information that indicates the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path;
• and
• output, in another case where the another communication device is not connected to the first physical resource, the information that indicates the communication device that exists in the shortest communication path and information that indicates the another communication device, in different modes.
