Abstract
A management apparatus obtains setting information from a replacement target device. Thereafter, it designates a distribution mode for distributing the setting information to a new device. If a replace mode is designated as the distribution mode, the management apparatus distributes the setting information to the new device and issues a power-off request to the replacement target device. The replacement target device that received the power-off request turns off its own power. The new device that received the setting information reflects the setting information in the new device in accordance with the designated distribution mode.
