Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes an execution unit, a power supply control unit, and a setting unit. In a case where the power supply control unit receives a shutdown request while the execution unit is executing first repair processing for a predetermined partition in accordance with reservation information, the setting unit changes the reservation information from the first repair processing to second repair processing that takes a shorter time than the first repair processing.
Claims13
An image forming apparatus including a storage that is managed by using a plurality of partitions, the image forming apparatus comprising:
- an execution unit configured to execute repair processing in which, out of data and management information for managing the data stored in a predetermined partition, the management information is repaired, the repair processing being first repair processing or second repair processing that takes a shorter time than the first repair processing;
- a non-volatile memory configured to store reservation information of the first repair processing for the predetermined partition;
- a setting unit configured to set the reservation information;
- and
- a power supply control unit configured to turn off a power supply upon reception of a shutdown request from an operator,
- wherein the setting unit changes the reservation information from the first repair processing to the second repair processing in a case where the power supply control unit receives the shutdown request while the execution unit is executing the first repair processing for the predetermined partition in accordance with the reservation information.
A method for controlling an image forming apparatus including a storage and a non-volatile memory, the storage being managed by using a plurality of partitions, the non-volatile memory storing information of repair processing in which, out of data and management information for managing the data included in a file stored in a predetermined partition, the management information is repaired, the repair processing being first repair processing out of the first repair processing and second repair processing that takes a shorter time than the first repair processing, as reservation information for the predetermined partition, the method comprising:
- executing the first repair processing for the predetermined partition in accordance with the reservation information;
- and
- changing the reservation information for the predetermined partition stored in the non-volatile memory, from the first repair processing to the second repair processing, upon reception of a shutdown request of the image forming apparatus while the first repair processing is being executed.
A storage medium having a program stored therein, the program causing a computer to execute a method for controlling an image forming apparatus including a storage and a non-volatile memory, the storage being managed by using a plurality of partitions, the non-volatile memory storing information of repair processing in which, out of data and management information for managing the data included in a file stored in a predetermined partition, the management information is repaired, the repair processing being first repair processing out of the first repair processing and second repair processing that takes a shorter time than the first repair processing, as reservation information for the predetermined partition, the method comprising:
- executing the first repair processing for the predetermined partition in accordance with the reservation information;
- and
- changing the reservation information for the predetermined partition stored in the non-volatile memory, from the first repair processing to the second repair processing, upon reception of a shutdown request of the image forming apparatus while the first repair processing is being executed.
