Abstract
A computer system includes a plurality of computer nodes communicating with each other via a network. Each of the plurality of computer nodes includes a local storage and at least one virtual machine. Each of the plurality of computer nodes transfers write data for the local storage to at least one different computer node for redundancy. A computer included in the computer system is configured to: obtain information indicating a write load amount of a first virtual machine; obtain information indicating remaining writable space of a local storage of a destination computer node among the plurality of computer nodes; and determine whether or not the first virtual machine should be transferred to the destination computer node, based on the write load amount of the first virtual machine and the remaining writable space of the destination computer node.
