First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus capable of managing a plurality of resources in a distributed manner and connecting to a plurality of devices sending resource information concerning the plurality of managed resources, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a specification information reception unit that receives specification information for specifying a predetermined one of the plurality of resources;
a determination unit that determines a device managing the resource specified by the specification information from among the plurality of devices based on the specification information received by the specification information reception unit;
a specification information notification unit that sends the specification information to the device that has been determined, by the determination unit, to manage the resource specified by the specification information;
an association unit that associates plural pieces of resource information with one another based on the sent resource information; and
a resource information processing unit that executes predetermined processing for the resource information based on the association among the plural pieces of resource information associated by the association unit.
