20100128298 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, LOG RECORDING METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A problem that it is difficult to associate a log of processing executed in a web browser of an image forming apparatus with a log of processing executed in a web application server, and thus it is difficult to track the logs as a series of processing logs. The image processing apparatus receives an execution request of a function of the image forming apparatus and obtains identification information for a log of processing executed in the server apparatus in response to the received execution request of the function. The image forming apparatus stores a log of processing in the image forming apparatus related to the processing in the server apparatus corresponding to the obtained identification information, in association with the obtained identification information. | 05-27-2010 |
20110161337 | SERVER APPARATUS, METHOD OF INSPECTING LOGS FOR THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An inspection server receives a search condition for print logs accumulated in a print log database from an inspection client PC, and an associated log setting for associating print jobs searched based on the search condition with logs managed by a log management server. The inspection server obtains a search result for a search request from an archive server, and further obtains a number of hits for the search request for associated logs based on an associated log setting from a log collection server. Based on the search result and the number of hits, the inspection server controls a display mode of print logs contained in the search result. | 06-30-2011 |
20110161724 | DATA MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, MONITORING APPARATUS, REPLICA APPARATUS, CLUSTER SYSTEM, CONTROL METHOD AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A data management apparatus, which is connected to a monitoring apparatus that monitors an operating state of a service, and which provides a service for managing data, comprises: a status management unit which manages a status of a service provided by itself; a notification unit which periodically notifies the monitoring apparatus of a status of the service; a receiving unit which receives a request from an application to which the service is provided; and a rejecting unit which rejects, when the request received by the receiving unit is an update request of data, the update request if a status associated with updating of the service managed by the status management unit is a limited status. | 06-30-2011 |
20110321176 | AUTHORITY TRANSFER SYSTEM, AUTHORITY TRANSFER METHOD, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - To prevent a transfer of an authority from being useless as much as possible, an authority transfer unit includes a decision unit for making a decision that an authority of a user with respect to a management unit is transferred to a processing request unit. | 12-29-2011 |
20120110098 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD OF E-MAIL APPENDED DOCUMENT IN THAT INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM THEREOF - An e-mail message to which a document is attached is received, and it is determined whether or not a digital signature is appended to the e-mail message. The document attached to the e-mail message is saved as an approved document, which is approved for printing, when it is determined that the digital signature is appended to the e-mail message. On the other hand, the document attached to the e-mail message is saved as a non-approved document, which is not approved for printing, in association with an e-mail address of the e-mail message when it is determined that the digital signature is not appended to the e-mail message. User information is acquired, and the non-approved document saved in association with an e-mail address that is associated in advance with the user information is retrieved. The retrieved non-approved document is changed to an approved document, and that approved document is saved. | 05-03-2012 |
20120331539 | AUTHENTICATION SYSTEM, AUTHENTICATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM FOR REALIZING A MULTITENANT SERVICE - In order to prevent leakage of data possessed by a tenant to other tenants in multitenant service, it is necessary to control access.
