1.9.1 Setting using IM Configuration Management - View

This subsection explains how to use IM Configuration Management - View to set the system hierarchy.

If you have added IM Configuration Management to an existing JP1/IM system that does not use IM Configuration Management, IM Configuration Management - View enables you to edit the configuration definition information collected from the existing JP1/IM system and set the system hierarchy.

This subsection explains how to set a new system hierarchy and how to edit the hierarchy of an existing system.

Organization of this subsection
(1) Setting a new system hierarchy
(2) Editing an existing system hierarchy

(1) Setting a new system hierarchy

There are two ways to define a system hierarchy: by using the highest manager to define the entire system hierarchy in batch mode, and by dividing the system hierarchy into smaller sections that are managed by individual managers, and then defining each section.

For examples of the management and configuration definition of a system hierarchy, see 6.2.1 Hierarchical configurations managed by IM Configuration Management in the Job Management Partner 1/Integrated Management - Manager Overview and System Design Guide.

The following provides an overview of how to set a new system hierarchy.

To set a new system hierarchy:

  1. Register a host that is to be added to the system hierarchy as a management target of IM Configuration Management.
  2. Add the host registered in IM Configuration Management to the system hierarchy and set the hierarchy between managers and agents.
    Add the host registered to IM Configuration Management to the system that is managed by JP1/IM, and set the hierarchy between the managers and the agents.
  3. Apply the set system hierarchy to the system.
    Apply the system hierarchy that was set by IM Configuration Management - View to the system that is managed by JP1/IM.

If you divide the system hierarchy into integrated manager and site managers, perform the above procedure for each manager. After that, use the IM Configuration Management - View that is connected to the integrated manager to perform the procedure described below to create a definition for the entire system.

To set a new system hierarchy:

  1. Synchronize the system hierarchy.
    Synchronize the configuration definition information between the integrated manager and site managers.
    For details about how to synchronize the system hierarchy, see 3.2.6 Synchronizing the system hierarchy.

(2) Editing an existing system hierarchy

The following provides an overview of how to edit the configuration definition information that is collected from an existing JP1/IM system.

To edit an existing system hierarchy:

  1. Collect the configuration definition information from the existing JP1/IM system.
    For details about how to collect configuration definition information from an existing JP1/IM system, see 3.2.1 Collecting the system hierarchy.
  2. Verify that the collected configuration definition information matches the configuration definition information held by IM Configuration Management.
    For details about how to verify configuration definition information, see 3.2.3 Verifying the system hierarchy.
  3. Edit the system hierarchy.
  4. Apply the set system hierarchy to the system.
    Apply the system hierarchy that was set by IM Configuration Management - View to the system that is managed by JP1/IM.
