ABSTRACT:
An object of this invention is to suppress influence due to a server trouble. This load balancing method comprises: if it is detected that a trouble occurred in a first server included in plural servers, selecting a second server other than the first server from the plural servers as a new transfer destination of a processing request from a user terminal whose transfer destination of the processing request is set to the first server; and generating and storing into a connection management data storage, setting data to transfer the processing request from the user terminal whose transfer destination of the processing request is set to the first server to the second server via a transfer route determined based on a predetermined rule. Thus, the processing request from the user terminal associated with the first server in which the trouble occurred is transferred to another normal second server, appropriately.
