Abstract

An information processing apparatus performs a backup process to store backup target data on a deduplication storage device configured to eliminate duplicate storage by referring to previously stored data having the same content. The apparatus includes a calculation unit configured to calculate the capacity after deduplication that is performed by storing the backup target data in the deduplication storage device, each time the backup process is performed, and a determination unit configured to determine whether the backup target data is normal or abnormal, based on the capacity calculated each time the backup process is performed.
