3.2.1 Setting up JP1/Base
This subsection describes how to set up JP1/Base.
The subsection contains an overview of setup and brief setup procedures. For details about the setup procedures, items to be set, and commands, see the Job Management Partner 1/Base User's Guide.
The following is an overview of JP1/Base setup:
-
Set user information.
JP1/Base user management is used to specify user mapping settings.
The user mapping settings are required when another host sends a job execution request to the local host. JP1 users are mapped to OS users who have been registered on hosts.
For details about how to specify these settings, see (1) Setting user information.
-
Specify the event service environment settings.
The event service environment settings are required to send and receive JP1 events.
In the JP1/Base event service environment settings, specify keep-alive as the communication type for the server parameter in the API settings file. If close is specified, the following problems might occur:
-
The JP1 event issued by JP1/AJS3 at startup cannot be issued.
-
The KAVT1040-E message is output to the integrated trace log, and the JP1 event reception monitoring job, log file monitoring job, and Windows event log monitoring job cannot detect events.
-
The JP1 event sending job terminates abnormally (Ended abnormally status).
For details about how to specify settings and about the API settings file, see the Job Management Partner 1/Base User's Guide.
-
The following describes the JP1/Base setup procedure and definitions.

(1) Setting user information
In the Windows version of JP1/Base, user information can be set by using either the GUI or commands. This manual describes only the method using the GUI. For the method using commands, see the Job Management Partner 1/Base User's Guide.
Note that JP1/AJS3 - Agent and JP1/AJS2 - Agent 07-00-/C and later versions no longer access the authentication server when they start.
In JP1/AJS3 - Agent and JP1/AJS2 - Agent 07-00-/C and later versions, you do not need to specify the authentication server.
The following describes the steps required to set user information.
(a) Map the JP1 users
Map the JP1 users registered on the authentication server to OS users.
To map a JP1 user:
-
In the JP1/Base Environment Settings dialog box, click the User Mapping tab.
-
In Password management, click the Set button.
The Password Manager dialog box appears.
-
Click the New User button.
The New User dialog box appears.
-
Specify the OS user name and password as OS user information, and then click the OK button.
The OS user information is set, and the Password Manager dialog box appears again. In the dialog box, you can register, change, and delete OS user and password information.
An OS user is defined in domain-name\user-name or user-name format. In JP1/AJS3, an OS user name with a domain name is distinguished from an OS user name without a domain name. Select the appropriate format as explained below:
-
For a domain user, use the domain-name\user-name format.
-
For a user on the domain controller, use the domain-name\user-name format.
-
For a local user (a user whose domain name and computer name are the same), use the user-name format (do not add a computer name).
-
-
Click the Exit button.
The Password Manager dialog box closes, and the JP1/Base Environment Settings dialog box appears again with the User Mapping page displayed.
-
In the JP1 user area, click the Add button.
The JP1 User dialog box appears.
-
Enter a JP1 user name and the name of the host requesting the job, and then click the OK button.
The OS User Mapping Details dialog box appears.
If an asterisk (*) is set for Server host, job execution requests from all hosts will be accepted.
-
For the displayed JP1 user, select one or more OS users to which you want to map the JP1 user.
The OS users not mapped displays the OS users set in the Password Manager dialog box. In this field, select the OS users to which you want to map the JP1 user, and then click the Add button. The selected OS users move to the OS users to be mapped.
Note that a JP1 user can be mapped to several OS users.
-
After making sure that all the OS users to which you want to map the JP1 user are selected, click the OK button.
The JP1 user name and the mapped OS user names are displayed in the List of OS users to be mapped of the JP1/Base Environment Settings dialog box.
User mapping is complete.
- Important note
-
Each OS user to which a JP1 user is mapped must have a permission sufficient for logging on locally to the host on which jobs will be executed.
You can set these permissions by using the Windows Local Security Policy administrative tool.
Make sure that the OS users to which a JP1 user is mapped are able to log on normally to the OS.
