5.3.3 Setting up the users who will be using Performance Management (PFM authentication mode)

(1) Before you start

• Verify that Performance Management has been installed and set up. For details about how to install and set up Performance Management, see the Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management Planning and Configuration Guide.

• Verify that the PFM authentication mode has been set up as Performance Management's user authentication mode. If you are using the JP1 authentication mode, see 5.3.4 Setting up the users who will be using Performance Management (JP1 authentication mode).

• Verify that the ITSLM users who will be using Performance Management have been registered. For details about setup of ITSLM users, see 5.2.2 Setting up JP1 users in JP1/Base.

• Check the correspondence between ITSLM's service groups and Performance Management's business groups, and verify the user names of ITSLM's JP1 users (service group administrators or service users) to which permissions for the business groups are to be granted.

(2) Procedure

PFM - Web Console is used to set up Performance Management users' accounts. For details, see the Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management User's Guide.

To set up JP1 users, use JP1/Base's JP1/Base Environment Settings dialog box or a JP1/Base command. This subsection explains the procedure that uses the JP1/Base Environment Settings dialog box. For details, see the section that describes setup of JP1 users in the Job Management Partner 1/Base User's Guide.

To set up the users who will be using Performance Management:

1. Log in to PFM - Web Console as a user who has a user account with administrator user permissions, and then create a performance management user account that is authorized to monitor the target business group.

   Tip

   For the user name of the user account to be created, specify the name of an ITSLM service group administrator or service user.

2. Start JP1/Base as a user with Administrators permissions, and then select the JP1 user with the same name as for the user account created in step 1.

3. For the selected JP1 user, add the JP1 resource group that corresponds to the business group to be monitored.

   Reference note

   The correspondence between JP1 resource group names and business groups is defined in the business group definition file that is created in 5.3.5 Defining business groups in Performance Management.

4. For the selected JP1 user, add the JP1_PFM_Operator permission.

   The following table describes the types of ITSLM users, permissions to be granted to each user, and operations that can be performed on Performance Management:

   No.	ITSLM user type	Permissions	Operations that can be performed on Performance Management
   1	Service group administrator	JP1_ITSLM_Admin JP1_PFM_Operator	Starting and stopping monitoring agents and specifying conditions related to the monitoring performed by monitoring agents. Also, viewing the information collected by monitoring agents from the ITSLM windows.
   2	Service user	JP1_ITSLM_User JP1_PFM_Operator	Viewing the information collected by monitoring agents from the ITSLM windows.

When the specified settings have been applied to JP1/Base's JP1/Base Environment Settings dialog box, the setup is complete.
