8.3.4 Migrating the service monitor information in the database

The database on the host on which ITSLM - Manager is installed contains various data needed for monitoring monitored services.

If you migrate your system from a test environment to an actual operating environment or if you replace your machine due to a change in the system configuration, you must migrate the service monitor information ( monitored service management information and service performance) that is stored in the database.

The management information for each monitored service that is included in the service monitor information is as follows:

Name of the monitored service
Name of the service group to which the monitored service belongs
Host name and IP address of the Web server that provides the monitored service
Relative URI of the monitored service
IP address of the ITSLM - UR that acquires service performance
Monitoring item settings for the monitored service (including Web transactions)
Business group definition information (business group definition information for ITSLM - Manager that is associated with the monitored service; this information is applicable when ITSLM is linked with Performance Management)
Availability monitoring information (availability monitoring information collected by PFM - Agent for Service Response that is associated with the monitored service; this information is applicable when ITSLM is linked with Performance Management)
Report template information

This subsection explains how to migrate the service monitor information in the database from the host on which ITSLM - Manager is installed to another host.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Before you start
(2) Procedure
(3) Supplementary information

(1) Before you start

Verify that ITSLM - Manager is running or the following services are running on the target host:
- Service JP1/ITSLM - Manager DB Service (service name: HiRDBEmbeddedEdition_JL0)
- Service JP1/ITSLM - Manager Service (service name: JP1_ITSLM_MGR_Service)
For details about how to start ITSLM - Manager, see 2.1.1 Starting ITSLM - Manager.
On the target host, install and set up ITSLM - Manager.

For details about how to install and set up ITSLM - Manager, see 5.1.5 Installing ITSLM and 5.1.6 Setting up ITSLM - Manager.

(2) Procedure

To migrate the service monitor information in the database:

On the source host, execute the service monitor information export command to create an export file.

Execute the following export command:

jslmmgrexport [ -g service-group-name -s service-name ]

-t { export-period | all | none }

-o output-file-name

[ -f ]

For details about the export command, see jslmmgrexport (exports service monitor information) in 9. Commands.
Copy the export file to the target host.

Copy the export file to a desired location (using any method of copying).
On the target host, from the Windows Start menu, select Administrative Tools, and then Services.
Start the ITSLM - Manager service JP1/ITSLM - Manager DB Service (service name: HiRDBEmbeddedEdition_JL0).
Start the ITSLM - Manager service JP1/ITSLM - Manager Service (service name: JP1_ITSLM_MGR_Service).
On the target host, execute the service monitor information import command to import the export file copied in step 2 (import-data-file-name).

Execute the following import command:

jslmmgrimport -i import-data-file-name

[ -g service-group-name -s service-name ]

[ -m [ IP-address-of-Web-server IP-address-of-ITSLM - UR ] ]

[ -p ]

For details about the import command, see jslmmgrimport (imports service monitor information) in 9. Commands.

If the import command terminates normally, the task of migrating the service monitor information in the database is complete.

(3) Supplementary information

For the information listed below that is used when ITSLM is linked with Performance Management, the jslmmgrimport command processing depends on whether the migration target already contains the data to be imported.

Table 8‒1: jslmmgrimport command processing
No.	Information to be imported	Processing
No.	Information to be imported	The migration target contains the data to be imported	The migration target does not contain the data to be imported
1	Business group definition information	Updates the business group definition information with the imported data. The check box settings for business groups are updated only if the check boxes are cleared in the existing data (if check boxes are selected in the exiting data, those check box settings are not updated).	Imports the data as is.
2	Availability monitoring information	Updates the contents of measurement condition labels while maintaining the selection status of the availability monitoring information.	Imports the data as is and keeps the availability monitoring information unselected.
3	Report template information	Updates the report template information with the imported data regardless of the default template or user-created templates.	Imports the data as is.

If performance data is migrated from ITSLM version 09-51 or earlier, the monitoring item names are displayed as shown below.

Table 8‒2: Monitoring item names when performance data is migrated
No.	ITSLM version
No.	Monitoring item name in version 09-51	Monitoring item name in version 10-00
1	Measured	Measured (max)
2	SLO threshold value	Threshold
3	Baseline	Baseline
