Apparatus, method, and program for synchronizing multi-function peripheral and virtual cloud device

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the computer being mounted on an information processing apparatus configured to synchronize held data with an other information processing apparatus, the process comprising:

• acquiring a list of pieces of synchronization target data from the other information processing apparatus in response to return from a power saving state;
• controlling synchronization processes to execute a first synchronization process for synchronizing, among the pieces of synchronization target data, first data expected to affect execution of processes of one or more users and designated by the other information processing apparatus, and then execute a second synchronization process for synchronizing pieces of second data other than the first data;
• and
• in response to a request to execute a process before completion of execution of the synchronization processes, starting to execute the requested process after completion of execution of the first synchronization process without waiting for completion of execution of the second synchronization process,
• wherein the other information-processing apparatus creates the list of synchronization target data and designates the first data within the list prior to commencement of synchronization, the information processing apparatus executing the first synchronization process according to the designation.
