Management apparatus, control method therefor, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for managing power control

摘要

A management apparatus comprises: management unit which manages a power control rule for a change of a state of the one or more information processing devices; determination unit which determines whether or not the power control ability of the information processing device matches the power control rule; and setting unit which sets the managed power control rule to the information processing device if it has been determined that the power control ability of the information processing device matches the managed power control rule, and sets a new power control rule that matches the power control ability of the information processing device if it has been determined that the power control ability of the information processing device does not match the managed power control rule.

1. A management apparatus comprising:
a management unit configured to manage a power control rule for a change of a state of one or more information processing devices; an obtaining unit configured to obtain information of a power control ability of an information processing device of the one or more information processing devices; a determination unit configured to determine, using the information of the power control ability of the information processing device obtained by the obtaining unit, whether or not power control of the information processing device can be performed based on the power control rule managed by the management unit; a setting unit configured, if the determination unit determines that the power control of the information processing device cannot be performed based on the power control rule managed by the management unit, to set a power control rule different from the power control rule managed by the management unit so as to match the power control ability of the information processing device; a detection unit configured to detect the change of the state of the information processing device; and a control unit configured to perform power control over the information processing device based on the change of the state of the information processing device detected by the detection unit and on the power control rule set by the setting unit, wherein if the determination unit determines the power control of the information processing device cannot be performed based on the power control rule managed by the management unit, the setting unit sets a power control rule based on a pre-set operational configuration that is prioritized in power control, wherein the pre-set operational configuration is a configuration indicating whether to prioritize power saving or to prioritize continuation of an operation of the information processing device in power control, and wherein at least one of the management unit, the obtaining unit, the determination unit, the setting unit, the detection unit, and the control unit is implemented by a processor and a memory.
