3.10 Procedure for initializing a database
You can initialize a database used by JP1/IT Desktop Management.
In a multi-server configuration system, start setup on the database server.
To initialize a database:
-
Log on to the OS as a user with administrator permissions.
-
On the Windows Start menu, select All Programs, JP1_IT Desktop Management - Manager, Tools, and then Setup, or All Programs, JP1_IT Desktop Management - Remote Site Server, and then Setup.
-
In the Setup window, click the Next button.
-
In the Select a Setup view, select Database Re-creation.
-
Click the Next button to set the database in each view.
-
In the Confirm Setup Settings view, check the settings, and then click the Next button.
-
In the dialog box indicating that setup is complete, set whether to register components after setup, and then click the OK button.
For a site server, settings related to component registration are not displayed.
Components include agents, site server programs, and network access control agents. Registering these programs on the management server allows you to distribute an agent and install a site server program, or to install a network access control agent from the operation window.
To register a component, specify the settings for component registration and update when the Component Registration dialog box opens.
For details about updating components, see 5.7 Updating components.
The database is initialized.
- Important note
-
Even if you initialize a database, the files in the folders are not deleted. If you do not need the data in the work folder or the data in the save folder for the backup of operation logs, delete the data manually.
If you want to initialize a database from the management server in a site-server configuration system, first initialize the database, and then perform the following operation on the site server:
- Reporting the index information for operation logs
-
On each site server in a system, execute the recreatelogdb command with the -node argument specified.
