Abstract
A file scan process is carried out, in parallel in a distributed manner, on a file server for which indices have been created once, to create a list of added, changed, or updated files. A file list of indexed scan target files is created by a distributed processing server. Directory URLs of the scan target files are acquired from the file list and analyzed to count a number of directories in each layer and determine a division unit for division of a scan process to be carried out on the scan target directories, based on a result of the counting.
