Abstract

The invention relates to a method and computer arrangement for controlling a plurality of servers (1). The computer arrangement comprising a plurality of servers (1), each hosting one or more applications (4) which provide services to clients (2) over a network (3), at least one local application monitor (5) assigned to each server (1) and at least one further application monitor (6) connected to the local application monitors (5). According to the method, the function of applications (4) is monitored by the assigned local application monitor (5). On detecting a malfunctioning application (4) by the assigned local application monitor (5), the malfunctioning application (4) is first being controlled by the assigned local application monitor (5), and only if the application can not be made functional again, the malfunction is reported to one of the further application monitors (6) by the assigned local application monitor (5).
