When the system generation information analysis result file creation means A4 receives the system generation information covering all computers in the network from the system generation information creation means A3, it analyzes it and determines whether there is a specification error ( Step 4-1゜4-2), and Step 4-
By determining that there is no specification error in step 2, the system generation information analysis result file creation means A4 executes the job transfer control programs A2 to F2 of each computer A to F.
In order to easily generate the job network control tables A1 to F1, a system generated information analysis result file (for example, The first block is the control section, the second block is the index section, and the pointer in the index section is used to point to the system generation information and network information of each computer. (Step 4)
-3), the system generated information analysis result file creation means A4 determines whether an input/output error has occurred during file creation (step 4-4), and if it is determined that there is an error, step 4- Returning to step 3, if it is determined that there is no error, the process ends.

When the system generated information analysis result file is created in the system generated information analysis result file creation means A4,
The file transfer means A5 starts the process shown in the flowchart of FIG. First, as shown in FIG. 6, the file transfer means A5 sends the computer names b-f of the computers B-F,
From the system generation management table A6 (initial state, only the computer name is registered), in which information indicating whether the transfer of the system generation information analysis result file has been completed or not is registered. The record V closest to the beginning of the records that have not been read is read (step 5-1), and then it is determined whether processing has been completed up to the last record stored in the system generation management table A6 (step 5). -2), this judgment is made based on, for example, whether or not the record was read in step 5-1.Next, the file transfer means A5 transfers the information to the computer contained in the record read in step 5-1. It is determined whether the job transfer control program of the computer corresponding to the name has been started and whether the computer is connected to the mask computer A (step 5-3), and if the determination result of step 5-3 is YES.
In the case of s, the file transfer means A5 transfers the system generated information analysis result file created by the system generated information analysis result file creation means A4 to the computer with the computer name included in the record read in step 5-1. -4), and then information indicating that the system generation information analysis result file has been transferred is placed in the corresponding area of the system generation management table A6 (in this example, it is "completed").
) is written (steps 5-5), and the process returns to step 5-1.

Further, if the determination result in step 5-3 is no, the file transfer means A5 transfers the system generation information analysis result file to the corresponding area of the system generation management table A6 with information (in this embodiment) indicating that the file has not been transferred yet. Then 1")
is written (step 5-6), and then the process returns to step 5-1.

Each: I7 computer B-F receives the system generated information analysis result file from mask computer A,
Job network control tables 81 to F1 are generated based on the transferred system generated information analysis result file.

File transfer means A5 is system generation management table A6
When the above-mentioned processing is completed for all records registered in , (if the judgment result in step 5-2 is yes), the system generation management table A6 is scanned, and the system generation information analysis result file is transferred to computers B-F. Determine whether the file has been transferred (step 5-7). If it is determined in step 5-7 that the system generation information analysis result file has been transferred to the computer B-F, that is, if the system generation information analysis result file is transferred to the computer B-F, All information indicating whether or not the system generated information analysis result file was transferred is “
If it is "Completed", the process ends.Also, if it is determined in step 5-7 that there is a computer to which the system generation information analysis result file has not been transferred, that is, if the file in the system generation management table A6 is If the information indicating whether or not the system-generated information analysis result file has been transferred is not all “completed,” display the computer name of the computer that has not transferred the system-generated information analysis result file on the display device. The computer informs the operator of the computer to which the system-generated information analysis result file has not been transferred (step 5-8), and waits for instructions from the operator.

When the operator learns the name of the computer that has not transferred the system-generated information analysis result file from the display contents of the display device, etc., the computer that has not transferred the system-generated information analysis result file completes preparations to receive the system-generated information analysis result file. When the operator recognizes that the preparation for receiving the system-generated information analysis result file is completed, the operator specifies the computer to which the system-generated information analysis result file is to be transferred to the file transfer means A5 using a center command, etc. Instructs to transfer the system generated information analysis result file. When the file transfer means A5 receives a transfer instruction from the operator, it transfers the system generated information analysis result file to the specified transfer destination computer (Step 5-9), and stores the system generated information in the corresponding area of the system generation management table A6. Information "Completed 2" indicating that the analysis result file has been transferred is written (step 5-10), and then the process returns to step 5-7.
