Information processing device, management program and management method for managing storage devices

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a management program causing a controller to execute a process for controlling an information processing device the controller being included in the information processing device for a management system in which a management device and the information processing device are configured to communicating with a storage device,

• wherein the process includes:
• downloading, from the storage device, an instruction template including a plurality of pieces of processing instruction information for instructing a plurality of pieces of processing to be executed by the information processing device;
• creating an update template in which each of the plurality of pieces of processing instruction information in the instruction template is replaced with a corresponding piece of a plurality of pieces of processing notification information to be notified to the management device;
• and
• uploading the update template to the storage device,
• wherein processing to be regularly executed by the information processing device is defined as regular processing and the management device regularly uploads a regular instruction template to the storage device, the regular instruction template being the instruction template including a plurality of pieces of regular processing instruction information that is the processing instruction information for a plurality of pieces of the regular processing,
• wherein processing to be executed as needed is defined as as-needed processing and the management device uploads an as-needed instruction template to the storage device as needed, the as-needed instruction template being the instruction template including as-needed processing instruction information that is the processing instruction information for instructing the as-needed processing,
• wherein, in the downloading, the regular instruction template is downloaded as the instruction template,
• wherein, in the creating, the update template in which the regular processing instruction information is replaced with the processing notification information in the regular instruction template is created as a regular update template,
• wherein, in the uploading, the created regular update template is uploaded to the storage device, and
• wherein the controller is further configured to:
• download the as-needed instruction template from the storage device as needed:
• creating an as-needed update template in which as-needed notification information to be notified to the management device regarding the as-needed processing indicated by the as-needed processing instruction information included in the as-needed instruction template is added to the as-needed instruction template;
• and
• uploading the as-needed update template created as needed to the storage device.

A management method executed by an information processing device for a management system in which a management device and the information processing device are configured to communicate with a storage device, the information processing device including a controller, and the management method comprising:

• downloading, from the storage device, an instruction template including a plurality of pieces of processing instruction information for instructing a plurality of pieces of processing to be executed by the information processing device;
• creating an update template in which each of the plurality of pieces of processing instruction information in the instruction template is replaced with a corresponding piece of a plurality of pieces of processing notification information to be notified to the management device;
• and
• uploading the update template to the storage device,
• wherein processing to be regularly executed by the information processing device is defined as regular processing and the management device regularly uploads a regular instruction template to the storage device, the regular instruction template being the instruction template including a plurality of pieces of regular processing instruction information that is the processing instruction information for a plurality of pieces of the regular processing,
• wherein processing to be executed as needed is defined as as-needed processing and the management device uploads an as-needed instruction template to the storage device as needed, the as-needed instruction template being the instruction template including as-needed processing instruction information that is the processing instruction information for instructing the as-needed processing,
• wherein, in the downloading, the regular instruction template is downloaded as the instruction template,
• wherein, in the creating, the update template in which the regular processing instruction information is replaced with the processing notification information in the regular instruction template is created as a regular update template,
• wherein, in the uploading, the created regular update template is uploaded to the storage device, and
• wherein the controller is further configured to:
• download the as-needed instruction template from the storage device as needed:
• creating an as-needed update template in which as-needed notification information to be notified to the management device regarding the as-needed processing indicated by the as-needed processing instruction information included in the as-needed instruction template is added to the as-needed instruction template;
• and
• uploading the as-needed update template created as needed to the storage device.

An information processing device for a management system in which a management device and the information processing device are configured to communicate with a storage device, the information processing device comprising a controller that is configured to:

• download, from the storage device, an instruction template including a plurality of pieces of processing instruction information for instructing a plurality of pieces of processing to be executed by the information processing device;
• create an update template in which each of the plurality of pieces of processing instruction information in the instruction template is replaced with a corresponding piece of a plurality of pieces of processing notification information to be notified to the management device;
• and
• upload the update template to the storage device, and
• wherein the information processing device further includes:
• a communication unit that is configured to perform data communication with the storage device;
• and
• an input unit that is configured to output input operation information for specifying an input operation performed by a user,
• wherein the controller is configured to validate or invalidate a function of the communication unit based on the input operation information output from the input unit.
