Abstract
A control system includes a first control device, a second control device, and a transfer storage unit. The first and second control devices execute processes. The first control device includes a first storage unit and a first processor. The first processor reflects state information in the first storage unit and the transfer storage unit. The first processor transmits, to the second control device, a start notification that causes the second control device to start an operation of the second control device. The second control device includes a second storage unit and a second processor. The second processor starts the operation of the second control device in response to reception of the start notification when the second control device is in a suspended state. The second processor reads the state information from the transfer storage unit. The second processor reflects the read state information in the second storage unit.
