Abstract
An information processing apparatus obtains first update firmware data from a server apparatus, holds the first update firmware data in a volatile storage medium, and stores version information of the first update firmware data in a non-volatile storage medium. The apparatus performs an update process of updating the firmware stored in the non-volatile storage medium, using the first update firmware data held in the volatile storage medium. The apparatus restores the firmware from an error state that accompanies the update process being abnormally terminated, based on second update firmware data, and decides whether or not to obtain update firmware data corresponding to the stored version information from the server apparatus based on the stored version information after the restoration.
