A system management server in a printing system assigns print document information and printing device information of a tenant to a plurality of servers to perform distributed management. When print document information and printing device information of a given tenant are divided and moved, the plurality of servers are searched for a server for managing the given tenant. When the found server is allowed to store the divided print document information and printing device information, the server is determined to be a destination server of the movement. The divided print document information and printing device information are moved to the determined destination server.
