The Conditions for Updating List of Action Results window is used to change the conditions for displaying the execution results of automated actions in the List of Action Results window.

The Conditions for Updating List of Action Results window is displayed when the user clicks the Update Settings button in the List of Action Results window.

Figure 2‒70: Conditions for Updating List of Action Results window

The following describes the items displayed in the Conditions for Updating List of Action Results window.

Update method

Specifies whether to refresh the List of Action Results window automatically or manually.

If the Update automatically radio button is selected, the window is refreshed automatically. The user specifies the refresh interval in minutes in the Interval text box. The range of specifiable values is from 1 to 1,440. The default is 1.

If the Update manually radio button is selected, the window is refreshed manually. When manual refresh is selected, the Interval text box is disabled.

The default is Update manually.

Updated contents

Specifies which action execution results are to be acquired. One of the following four types can be selected:

Most recent action results

Selecting this radio button acquires the results of the most recently executed actions. The number of action execution results to be acquired is specified in the Num. to display area.

Specified action serial number

Selecting this radio button and specifying the action serial number acquires the execution results of the action with the specified action serial number. After entering the serial number, the user selects Before or After from the drop-down list to specify the range of actions to be displayed. A value from 1 to 2,147,483,647 can be specified as an action serial number.

Selecting Before from the drop-down list acquires the execution results of the actions preceding (and including) the specified action. If Before is selected, JP1/IM - View acquires the preceding execution results starting with the most recent results.

Selecting After from the drop-down list acquires the execution results of the actions following (and including) the specified action. When After is selected, JP1/IM - View acquires the subsequent execution results starting with the oldest results.

The number of action execution results to be acquired is specified in the Num. to display area.

Specify the event-registration time

Selecting this radio button and specifying the time that the JP1 events were registered in the event databases on the event-issuing hosts acquires the execution results of the actions that are registered within the specified timeframe.

The user enters the base time, and then selects either Before or After from the drop-down list.

Selecting Before from the drop-down list acquires the execution results of the actions registered before (and at) the specified time. If Before is selected, JP1/IM - View acquires the previous execution results starting with the most recent results.

Selecting After from the drop-down list acquires the execution results of the actions registered after (and at) the specified time. If After is selected, JP1/IM - View acquires the subsequent execution results starting with the oldest results.

The number of action execution results to be acquired is specified in the Num. to display area.

Specify a time in YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm:ss format. The time you specify must be within the time range that corresponds to 1970/01/01 00:00:00 GMT to 2038/01/19 03:14:07 GMT in the default time zone of the machine.

For example, on a machine whose time zone is set to GMT+9 (Japan), you can specify a value in the range from 1970/01/01 09:00:00 to 2038/01/19 12:14:07.

Specified event arrival time

Selecting this radio button and specifying the time that the JP1 events arrived at the local server acquires the execution results of the actions for which JP1 events arrived at the local server within the specified timeframe.

Selecting Before from the drop-down list acquires the execution results of the actions for which JP1 events arrived before (and at) the specified time. If Before is selected, JP1/IM - View acquires the previous execution results starting with the most recent results.

Selecting After from the drop-down list acquires the execution results of the actions for which JP1 events arrived after (and at) the specified time. If After is selected, JP1/IM - View acquires the subsequent execution results starting with the oldest results.

The number of action execution results to be acquired is specified in the Num. to display area.

Specify the time in YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm:ss format. The time you specify must be within the time range that corresponds to 1970/01/01 00:00:00 GMT to 2038/01/19 03:14:07 GMT in the default time zone of the machine.

For example, on a machine whose time zone is set to GMT+9 (Japan), you can specify a value in the range from 1970/01/01 09:00:00 to 2038/01/19 12:14:07.

Num. to display

Specifies the maximum number of actions that can be displayed in the List of Action Results window. The range of specifiable values is from 1 to 200. The default is 20.

Host

To specify the name of a host on which an action was executed, select the Host check box, and then specify a host name that is no more than 255 bytes. To specify a business group name or monitoring group name, the maximum length is 2,048 bytes.

Multiple hosts, business group names, and monitoring group names can be specified. The maximum of the total number of names that can be specified is 100. To use a comma (,) or backslash (\) as an ordinary character, prefix a backslash (\) as an escape character. That is, to use a comma (,), enter \,. To use a backslash (\), enter \\. Line breaks and tabs cannot be used. Character strings specified in path format are treated as business group names or monitoring group names. However, if the integrated monitoring database and the IM Configuration Management database are disabled at the time of login to JP1/IM, the names specified in path format are treated as host names.

Alphanumeric characters, underscores (_), hyphens (-), periods (.), and commas (,) can be entered in the text box, although the commas (,) can only be used as separators.

Also note that hyphens (-) and periods (.) cannot be used as the last character, and that host group names cannot be specified.

Status

Specifies the execution statuses of the actions to be displayed. To specify execution statuses, the user selects the Status check box, and then selects the check boxes of the statuses that are to be displayed. Multiple statuses can be specified.

The available check boxes are Wait, Send, Queue, Running, Cancel, Kill, Fail, Error, Deterrent, Other, and Ended. The actions displayed by selecting these check boxes include actions with the status suffixes -R, -RU, -RD, -RUD, and -D. For example, when the Running check box is selected, actions in the Running, Running-R, Running-RU, Running-RD, and Running-RUD statuses are displayed.

For details about the statuses that can be selected in this area, see the table under the description of the Log area in 2.35 Action Log Details window.

If Ended is selected, the condition for selecting return codes can also be selected from 0, Not 0, and All.

Canceled status

Specifies whether actions for which cancellation is in progress and actions for which cancellation failed are to be displayed. These actions are displayed in the List of Action Results window when the Canceled status check box, the Included radio button, and either one or both of the Canceling and Miss check boxes are selected.

If Canceling is selected, the actions for which cancellation is in progress are displayed. If Miss is selected, the actions for which cancellation failed are displayed.

When the Not included radio button is selected, the actions for which cancellation is in progress and the actions for which cancellation failed are not displayed.

The default is Not included.
