Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a memory configured to store information that indicates a correspondence relationship between location information indicating a connection position of a device to a bus and driver information indicating a device driver corresponding to the device; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to associate a device that is connected to the connection position with a device driver indicated by the driver information stored in the memory.
Claims19
An information processing apparatus, comprising:
- a plurality of slots in which a plurality of same type of devices are installed;
- a memory;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
- associate each of the plurality of same type of devices with a first device driver;
- receive identification information indicating a request to change a device driver associated with one or more devices designated among the plurality of same type of devices by a user to a second device driver from the first device driver, the identification information including location information of one or more slots in which the one or more devices being installed among the plurality of slots;
- specify the one or more devices from among the plurality of same type of devices by referring to the location information of the one or more slots;
- and
- change the device driver associated with the one or more devices from the first device driver to a second device driver.
An information processing method by an information processing apparatus including a plurality of slots in which a plurality of same type of devices are installed, the information processing method comprising:
- associating each of the plurality of same type of devices with a first device driver;
- receiving identification information indicating a request to change a device driver associated with one or more devices designated among the plurality of same type of devices by a user to a second device driver from the first device driver, the identification information including location information of one or more slots in which the one or more devices being installed among the plurality of slots;
- specifying the one or more devices from among the plurality of same type of devices by referring to the location information of the one or more slots;
- and
- changing the device driver associated with the one or more devices from the first device driver to a second device driver.
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program that causes an information processing apparatus to execute a process, the information processing apparatus-including a plurality of slots in which a plurality of same type of devices are installed, the process comprising:
- associating each of the plurality of devices having the identical type with a first device driver;
- receiving identification information indicating a request to change a device driver associated with one or more devices designated among the plurality of same type of devices by a user to a second device driver from the first device driver, the identification information including location information of one or more slots in which the one or more devices being installed among the plurality of slots;
- specifying the one or more devices from among the plurality of same type of devices by referring to the location information of the one or more slots;
- and
- changing the device driver associated with the one or more devices from the first device driver to a second device driver.
