Information processing apparatus, information processing system, and monitoring method

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology of reducing processing load of a processor that monitors and controls components in a server.SOLUTION: An information processing apparatus 1 (server) includes a processor 1000, and a system board 100 comprising modules 101-105(components) and a controller 110(MBC). The processor transmits conditions for detecting a module failure, to the controller. The controller acquires information from the modules, to determine whether the information acquired from the modules satisfies the conditions or not. When the information acquired from the modules satisfies the conditions, information on the detected module failure is transmitted to the processor.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
