Abstract

A support module monitors the operation of at least one information processing module domain by automatically applying at least one test at intervals to an information processing module domain to be monitored and reporting a fault when the test is unsuccessful. On initiation of an information processing module domain, the support module automatically applies a set of tests to the information processing module domain, and, where a test provides a positive result, reapplies the test at intervals to monitor the operation of the information processing module domain.
