6.6 Managing remotely monitored hosts
Using IM Configuration Management, you can manage remotely monitored hosts by collecting the following types of remote-monitoring log information from the remotely monitored hosts:
-
Remote-monitoring log file trap information
-
Remote-monitoring event log trap information (for Windows only)
Only the newly acquired log information (information not previously in the log) is collected by lines.
The following remotely monitored hosts can be managed:
-
Remotely monitored hosts with an English version OS
In remote monitoring, log monitoring might stop, or events might be lost because of communication failures. For a system in which temporary stoppage of log monitoring is not allowed, introduce JP1/Base for monitoring. For details about selection of remote monitoring or monitoring using JP1/Base, see 6.2.8 Selection of agent configuration or remote monitoring configuration.
In remote monitoring, the resolution of names of monitored hosts into the IP addresses is performed by the JP1/IM - Manager host OS. When you perform remote monitoring, specify and register the host names of monitored hosts in the hosts file and DNS so that the JP1/IM - Manager host OS can resolve them.
