Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a log storage and a log deleting unit. The log storage stores log information in a memory. The log information indicates a history of a process in an image forming apparatus which forms an image on recording material. The log deleting unit deletes log information from the memory among pieces of log information stored in the memory. The deleted log information satisfies a predetermined condition. The log deleting unit does not delete log information related to an abnormality occurring in the image forming apparatus, even when the log information related to the abnormality satisfies the predetermined condition.
Claims8
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a log storage that stores log information in a memory, the log information indicating a history of processes in an image forming apparatus which forms an image on recording material;
- and
- a log deleting unit that deletes log information from the memory among pieces of log information stored in the memory if (i) there is no free space in storage and (ii) the log information satisfies a precondition, with the proviso that even if these two conditions occur, the log deleting unit does not delete the log information if the log information is determined to be related to an abnormality, which includes either (i) log information of a process in which an abnormality has occurred;
- or (ii) log information of a different process which is predetermined as a process related to the process in which an abnormality has occurred.
An image forming system comprising:
- an image forming apparatus that forms an image on recording material;
- and
- an information processing apparatus including a log storage that stores log information in a memory, the log information indicating a history of processes in the image forming apparatus, and a log deleting unit that deletes log information from the memory among pieces of log information stored in the memory if (i) there is no free space in storage and (ii) the log information satisfies a precondition, with the proviso that even if these two conditions occur, the log deleting unit does not delete the log information if the log information is determined to be related to an abnormality, which includes either (i) log information of a process in which an abnormality has occurred;
- or (i) log information of a different process which is predetermined as a process related to the process in which an abnormality has occurred.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:
- storing log information in a memory, the log information indicating a history of processes in an image forming apparatus which forms an image on recording material;
- and
- performing a process of deleting log information from the memory among pieces of log information stored in the memory if (i) there is no free space in storage and (ii) the log information satisfies a precondition, with the proviso that even if these two conditions occur, the log information is not deleted if the log information is determined to be related to an abnormality, which includes either (i) log information of a process in Which an abnormality has occurred;
- or (ii) log information of a different process which is predetermined as a process related to the process in which an abnormality has occurred.
