3.3.1 Collecting profiles

There are two ways to collect the JP1/Base profiles from the agents, depending on the collection range. This subsection describes the two methods.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Collecting profiles in batch mode

(2) Collecting profiles from individual hosts

(1) Collecting profiles in batch mode

This subsection explains how to collect the JP1/Base profiles in batch mode from all hosts that are defined in the system hierarchy.

Note that profile collection cannot be performed in batch mode in the following cases:

Another user has exclusive editing rights for one of the configuration files.

Another user is performing batch collection of profiles.

Another user is performing batch reflection of edited information in the configuration files.

To collect profiles in batch mode:

In the IM Configuration Management window, click the Host List or IM Configuration tab.
The Host List page or the IM Configuration page is displayed.

From the menu bar, choose Operation, then Batch Collect Profiles.
Batch collection of all profiles is executed. The execution result is displayed in the Execution Results window.
When a confirmation message asking whether you wish to collect profiles in batch mode is displayed, choose Yes. Profiles are collected and stored in the manager where IM Configuration Management is running.

After executing the batch collection, you can check profile status in the Display/Edit Profiles window. If there is a profile whose collection has failed, its Configuration file contents in the node information display area is grayed out, and the profile status is displayed in Status.

After executing batch collection of profiles, you can check host status on the IM Configuration page in the Configuration Management window. If there is a profile whose collection has failed, a host icon indicating the error status is displayed in the tree area on the IM Configuration page. To view the detailed information, click the Basic Information button in the node information display area on the IM Configuration page.

(2) Collecting profiles from individual hosts

This subsection explains how to collect JP1/Base profiles from individual hosts.

This function is applicable to hosts that are running JP1/Base version 9. You can use the Display/Edit Profiles window to collect an individual host's JP1/Base profile.

Note that profiles cannot be collected while another user has exclusive editing rights for the configuration files.

To collect the profile from a specific host:

In the IM Configuration Management window, click the IM Configuration tab.
The IM Configuration page is displayed.

From the tree area, choose the host whose profile is to be collected.

Use one of the following methods to display the Display/Edit Profiles window:

From the menu bar, choose Display, and then Display Profiles.

From the pop-up menu that is displayed by right-clicking, choose Display Profiles.

From the tree area, choose a JP1 product name (JP1/Base), and then use one of the following methods to obtain exclusive editing rights:

From the pop-up menu that is displayed by right-clicking, choose Exclusive Editing Settings.

You can obtain exclusive editing rights on the JP1 product (JP1/Base) on the target host.

Click the Configuration File button.
The Configuration File page is displayed.
If you have never collected configuration files, clicking the Configuration File button automatically starts configuration file collection.

From the tree area, choose a profile to be edited, and then use one of the following methods to collect it:

From the menu bar, choose Operation, and then Collect Profiles.
