Information processing apparatus, control method therefor and storage medium

Abstract

The invention relates to an information processing apparatus which performs mirroring for synchronizing storage contents of a first storage unit and a second storage unit. If mirroring is valid when the information processing apparatus is started, the information processing apparatus detects a storage unit attached to itself. If a detection result indicates that no storage unit has been detected or one storage unit has been detected, the information processing apparatus displays, on a display unit, a connection acknowledgement screen for the storage unit which has not been detected. If the detection result indicates that two storage units have been detected, activation processing is executed for the information processing apparatus.

1 . An information processing apparatus which performs mirroring for synchronizing storage contents of a first storage unit and a second storage unit, the apparatus comprising:
 a determination unit that determines, when said apparatus is started, whether the mirroring is valid;   a detection unit that detects, if said determination unit has determined that the mirroring is valid, a storage unit attached to said apparatus; and   a control unit that displays on a display unit, if a detection result of said detection unit indicates that no storage unit has been detected or one storage unit has been detected, a connection acknowledgement screen for the storage unit which has not been detected.
