    The above property display names are the defaults. You can modify these display names in the Customize Managed Items window of AIM (by choosing System Definition and then Customize Managed Items in the job menu). For details about the Customize Managed Items window, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Asset Information Manager Planning and Setup Guide.
    Note
    Information about the properties that can be specified in user-defined judgment conditions must be set in advance. Use the Assign Inventory window of AIM (choose System Definition and then Assign Inventory in the job menu) or use the jamimport command (import command for reading asset information as a batch to the asset management database from a CSV file).
    For details about assigning inventory information and about the jamimport command, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Asset Information Manager Planning and Setup Guide.

  3. Click the OK button.

    Note
    • You cannot change a judgment condition to one that duplicates the class, property, comparison condition, and comparison value of another judgment condition.
    • You cannot change a judgment condition to one that duplicates the class, property, and comparison condition (other than Match part of the words or Do not match) of another judgment condition.
    • You cannot change a judgment condition to one that duplicates the class, property, and comparison value (other than a value for Match beginning of the words or Match end of the words for a string property) of another judgment condition.

  3. Click the OK button.
    The Update (judgment condition) dialog box closes and you are returned to the Add (judgment item information) dialog box. The entered judgment condition is changed.

(3) Deleting a user-defined judgment condition

To delete a user-defined judgment condition:

  1. In the Add (judgment item information) dialog box, click to select the user-defined judgment condition you want to delete.
    You can select multiple user-defined judgment conditions.

  2. Click the Delete button.
    The Delete (judgment condition) message box appears.

    [Figure]

  3. Click the OK button if you are sure you want to delete the judgment condition.
    The Delete (judgment condition) message box closes and you are returned to the Add (judgment item information) dialog box. The selected judgment condition is deleted.

(4) Example of setting a judgment condition judging client compliance with power-saving initiatives

By setting a user-defined judgment condition based on asset information of a client, you can judge whether the client is complying with power-saving initiatives.

(a) Checking whether a power-saving CPU is present

The following table shows an example of setting a judgment condition for checking whether the client has a power-saving CPU.

Table 6-31 Example of setting a judgment condition for checking whether a power-saving CPU is present

No. Item Setting value
1 Class Hardware information
2 Property CPU
3 Comparison condition Do not match
4 Comparison value (string) Type code for the power-saving CPU#
5 Treatment when a value is not set for the property Treat the security level as unknown

#
You can specify more than one CPU type by setting multiple judgment conditions.
For details about the type codes that identify different CPU types, see the manual Job Management Partner 1/Asset Information Manager Planning and Setup Guide.

(b) Checking whether automatic power-off is enabled for the monitor

The following table shows an example of setting a judgment condition for checking whether client monitor power is turned off after a certain length of time (10 minutes). Note that this judgment requires JP1/Software Distribution Client 08-51 or later.

Table 6-32 Example of setting a judgment condition for checking whether the monitor is turned off after the time of 10 minutes

No. Item Setting value
1 Class Name of the class to which the following inventory information is to be assigned:

If the monitor power is AC:
  • Turn off monitor (AC)

If the monitor power is DC:
  • Turn off monitor (DC)
2 Property Name of the property to which the following inventory information is to be assigned:

If the monitor power is AC:
  • Turn off monitor (AC)

If the monitor power is DC:
  • Turn off monitor (DC)
3 Comparison condition Not less than
4 Comparison value (string) 0000000600#
5 Treatment if a value is not set for the property Treat the security level as unknown

#
Specify a 10-digit numeric value, in seconds, that indicates the time when the monitor is turned off.

Reference note
As with monitor power judgment, the following items can also be used as judgment conditions for the client power-saving settings. Note, however, that the following items can be used as judgment conditions only if the JP1/Software Distribution Client version is 09-00 or later.
  • Time after which the hard disks are turned off
  • Time after which the system is placed in standby or sleep status
  • Time after which the system hibernates
For details about setting the corresponding judgment conditions, see Table 6-31.

(c) Checking whether power-saving settings are specified for the CPU (processor)

The following table shows an example of setting a judgment condition for checking whether the processor power management settings specify power saving. Note that this judgment requires JP1/Software Distribution Client 08-51 or later.

Table 6-33 Example of setting a judgment condition for checking whether the processor power management settings specify power saving

No. Item Setting value
1 Class Name of the class to which the following inventory information is to be assigned:

If the processor power is AC:
  • Processor Throttle (AC)

If the processor power is DC:
  • Processor Throttle (DC)
2 Property Name of the property to which the following inventory information is to be assigned:

If the processor power is AC:
  • Processor Throttle (AC)

If the processor power is DC:
  • Processor Throttle (DC)
3 Comparison condition Do not match
4 Comparison value (string) Value to set the processor adjustment you allow#
5 Treatment if a value is not set for the property Treat the security level as unknown

#
To specify more than one value, you must set more than one judgment condition.
The following explains the values you can set:
NONE: The processor always runs at its highest performance level.
ADAPTIVE: The performance level is selected based on the CPU status.
DEGRADE: The processor starts at its lowest performance level, after which its Linear Performance Reduction mechanism (stop clock throttling function) operates governed by the amount of battery discharge.
CONSTANT: The processor always runs at its lowest performance level.
