Storage medium and information processing apparatus and method with failure prediction

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• a receiver that receives failure-predictive information including information on a plurality of kinds of phenomena related to occurrence of a failure from each of a plurality of computers including an active first computer in a redundant system that are managed by said information processing apparatus;
• a storage unit that stores said failure-predictive information received by said receiver;
• and
• a processor that calculates, for each individual second computer of one or more second computers of a plurality of second computers associated with said first computer in said redundant system, an evaluation value that indicates the probability of occurrence of a future failure in the individual second computer using said failure-predictive information received by said receiver from the individual second computer and stored in said storage unit and said failure-predictive information received by said receiver from one or more predetermined computers other than the individual second computer of said plurality of computers and stored in said storage unit.
