1.10 Setting the system hierarchy (when IM Configuration Management is not used)
This section describes how to set the system hierarchy (IM configuration) when IM Configuration Management is not used. For details about the system hierarchy settings when IM Configuration Management is used, see 1.9 Setting the system hierarchy (when IM Configuration Management is used).
When you are not using IM Configuration Management, you must use the configuration management function provided by JP1/Base to set the hierarchical structure between managers and agents in a system that is managed by JP1/IM.
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.
If you are using IM Configuration Management to manage your system hierarchy, do not edit the definition files for the configuration management function provided by JP1/Base, or execute commands.
For examples of system hierarchy management and configuration definitions, see 7.4.3 Managing the system hierarchy in the Job Management Partner 1/Integrated Management - Manager Overview and System Design Guide.
