F. Advanced Use

This appendix outlines the functions for more efficient use of JP1/IM. For details, see the manuals of the JP1/IM series products.

Functions for advanced use of JP1/IM

Function	Overview	Related topics
Event receiver filter and severe events filter	Filters not described in this manual can also be configured in JP1/IM.	3.2.3 Event receiver filter in the Overview and System Design Guide 3.2.4 Severe events filter in the Overview and System Design Guide 4.2.2 Settings for event receiver filters in the Configuration Guide 4.2.3 Settings for severe events filters in the Configuration Guide 2.10 Severe Event Definitions window in the manual GUI Reference 2.28 Settings for Event Receiver Filter window in the manual GUI Reference
Remote monitoring^#	You can monitor log files on monitored hosts without JP1/Base installed.	6.2.8 Selection of agent configuration or remote monitoring configuration in the Overview and System Design Guide 6.6 Managing remotely monitored hosts in the Overview and System Design Guide 1.18 Settings for monitoring logs on remotely monitored hosts in the Configuration Guide 2.17 Settings for monitoring logs on remotely monitored hosts in the Configuration Guide 4.7 Remote Monitoring Settings window in the manual GUI Reference 4.20 System Common Settings window in the manual GUI Reference
Support of cluster environment	Using JP1/IM in a cluster system allows system monitoring to continue if a server failure occurs.	12.3.8 Configuration for operation in a cluster system in the Overview and System Design Guide 6. Operation and Environment Configuration in a Cluster System in the Configuration Guide
System monitoring in virtualization configurations	You can use a program such as virtualization environment management software to acquire information about a virtual machine and display the configuration in a tree format.	6.3 Virtualization configuration management in the Overview and System Design Guide 3.3 Setting a virtualization system configuration in the Configuration Guide
Linkage with other JP1/IM series products	JP1/IM can be linked with products such as JP1/IM - Service Support and JP1/IM - Navigation Platform to monitor systems.	8. Linking with Other Products in the Overview and System Design Guide 8. Settings for Linking to Other Integrated Management Products in the Configuration Guide
Suppressing forwarding of a large number of events	You can prevent a large number of events issued on an agent from being forwarded to the manager.	3.5.9 Suppressing the forwarding of a large number of events in the Overview and System Design Guide 11.1.7 Considerations for suppressing the forwarding of a large number of events in the Overview and System Design Guide 5.1.7 Suppressing event forwarding when a lot of events occur in the Administration Guide

#: In remote monitoring, log monitoring might stop or log data might no longer be acquired as events due to a communication failure related to specification restrictions. If the system cannot tolerate such situations, install JP1/Base and use it for monitoring rather than configuring remote monitoring in JP1/IM.
