APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT

摘要

A configuration management apparatus acquires a value of a configuration information item from a collection target apparatus to thereby manage the configuration of the collection target apparatus. To that end, the configuration management apparatus includes a determining unit and an acquiring unit. The determining unit determines an acquisition timing of acquiring the configuration information item based on at least one of reference frequency of the configuration information item being referred to, update frequency of the value of the configuration information item being updated, and load on the collection target apparatus in such a manner as to control the load on the collection target apparatus. The acquiring unit acquires the configuration information item from the collection target apparatus at the determined acquisition timing through cooperation with the collection target apparatus.
