VERIFICATION SUPPORT METHOD, VERIFICATION SUPPORTING DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A verification support method executed by a processor included in a verification supporting device coupled to a system including a plurality of computers, the verification supporting device being configured to support a change in a setting of software to be executed by any of the plurality of computers, the verification support method comprising:
- generating, every time a setting change of a certain computer among the plurality of computers is executed, a configuration change information item that includes one or more setting change information items indicating a content of the setting change of the certain computer and a content of a setting change to be made by a computer other than the certain computer in response to the setting change of the certain computer;
calculating a co-occurrence probability indicating a probability at which when one of setting change items is changed, the other setting change item is changed, for each of combinations of setting change items extracted from a plurality of setting change items included in a plurality of generated configuration change information items;
extracting a second setting change item of which a co-occurrence probability when the first setting change item is changed is equal to or larger than a first threshold, from the plurality of configuration change information items, when information of a first setting change item is received from any of the plurality of computers; and
outputting the extracted second setting change item.

Abstract
A verification support method includes generating, every time a setting change of a certain computer among a plurality of computers is executed, a configuration change information item that includes one or more setting change information items indicating a content of the setting change of the certain computer and a content of a setting change to be made by a computer other than the certain computer in response to the setting change of the certain computer; calculating a co-occurrence probability for each of combinations of setting change items extracted from a plurality of setting change items included in a plurality of generated configuration change information items; extracting a second setting change item of which a co-occurrence probability when the first setting change item is changed is equal to or larger than a first threshold when information of a first setting change item is received; and outputting the second setting change item.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes a verification supporting device to execute a process, the verification supporting device being coupled to a system including a plurality of computers and configured to support a change in a setting of software to be executed by any of the plurality of computers, the process comprising:
-
generating, every time a setting change of a certain computer among the plurality of computers is executed, a configuration change information item that includes one or more setting change information items indicating a content of the setting change of the certain computer and a content of a setting change to be made by a computer other than the certain computer in response to the setting change of the certain computer; calculating a co-occurrence probability indicating a probability at which when one of setting change items is changed, the other setting change item is changed, for each of combinations of setting change items extracted from a plurality of setting change items included in a plurality of generated configuration change information items; extracting a second setting change item of which a co-occurrence probability when the first setting change item is changed is equal to or larger than a first threshold, from the plurality of configuration change information items, when information of a first setting change item is received from any of the plurality of computers; and outputting the extracted second setting change item.

11. A verification supporting device coupled to a system including a plurality of computers and is configured to support a change in a setting of software to be executed by any of the plurality of computers, the verification supporting device comprising:
-
a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to; generate, every time a setting change of a certain computer among the plurality of computers is executed, a configuration change information item that includes one or more setting change information items indicating a content of the setting change of the certain computer and a content of a setting change to be made by a computer other than the certain computer in response to the setting change of the certain computer; calculate a co-occurrence probability indicating a probability at which when one of setting change items is changed, the other setting change item is changed, for each of combinations of setting change items extracted from a plurality of setting change items included in a plurality of generated configuration change information items; extract a second setting change item of which a co-occurrence probability when the first setting change item is changed is equal to or larger than a first threshold, from the plurality of configuration change information items, when information of a first setting change item is received from any of the plurality of computers; and output the extracted second setting change item.
