Abstract
An information processing apparatus, connected to a management server managing a set value used among a plurality of information processing apparatuses, can perform an appropriate process according to the situation of an information processing system and can prevent wasteful power consumption thereof. A set value acquired from the management server and changed by the information processing apparatus is transmitted to the management server, but when the transmission fails, the transmission of the changed set value is retried, and it is switched according to a classification of the set value to be transmitted whether the retry is stopped or is continued.
Claims9
An information processing apparatus configured to connect to a management server managing a set value used among a plurality of information processing apparatuses, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a processor connected to a storage device, the processor configured to:
- acquire a set value from the management server;
- change the acquired set value;
- transmit information indicating a content of the change in the set value to the management server;
- and
- retry transmission of the information when the transmission of the information fails,
- wherein the processor is configured to determine, according to a classification of the set value corresponding to the information, whether to temporarily restrict performing retrying of the transmission of the information or to perform retrying of the transmission of the information.
A control method for an information processing apparatus configured to connect to a management server managing a set value used among a plurality of information processing apparatuses, the method comprising:
- an acquisition step of acquiring a set value from the management server;
- a changing step of changing the acquired set value;
- a transmission step of transmitting information indicating a content of the change in the set value to the management server;
- and
- a retry step of retrying transmission of the information when the transmission of the information by the transmission step fails,
- wherein the method determines, according to a classification of the set value corresponding to the information, whether to temporarily restrict execution of the retry step or to execute the retry step.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein a program for causing a computer to implement a method of controlling an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- an acquisition step of acquiring a set value from a management server;
- a changing step of changing the acquired set value;
- a transmission step of transmitting information indicating a content of the change in the set value to the management server;
- and
- a retry step of retrying transmission of the information when the transmission of the information by the transmission step fails,
- wherein the method determines, according to a classification of the set value corresponding to the information, whether to temporarily restrict execution of the retry step or to execute the retry step.
