In the research and development of distributed computer systems and related technologies it is appropriate to use research models of such systems based on the virtual infrastructure. These models can simulate a large number of different configurations of distributed systems. The paper presents an approach to automate the creation of virtual models for one of the classes of distributed systems used for scientific computing. Also there considers the existing ways to automate some maintaining processes and provides practical results obtained by the author in the development and testing of prototype software tools to create virtual models.
