This subsection describes the setup that is required before you can use PFM - Agent for Service Response.
indicates a setup item whose requirement depends on the environment being used, or an optional setup item when you wish to change a default setting.
To use PFM - Manager and PFM - Web Console for centralized management of PFM - Agents, PFM - Agent for Service Response must be registered into PFM - Manager and PFM - Web Console. You must register PFM - Agent for Service Response in the following cases:
When the version of PFM - Manager is 09-00 and later, you do not need to perform the procedure explained here, because PFM - Agent is automatically registered. However, you must manually register the PFM - Agent instances whose data model version is not provided in the PFM - Manager release notes. For details about data model versions for PFM - Agent for Service Response, see H. Version Compatibility.
The following figure shows the procedure for registering PFM - Agent for Service Response.
Figure 2-4 Procedure for registering PFM - Agent for Service Response
Copy the setup files from the host where PFM - Agent for Service Response was installed to the host where PFM - Manager and PFM - Web Console were installed.
To copy the setup files:
Table 2-2 Setup files to be copied
Source | PFM - Agent for Service Response setup file | ||
---|---|---|---|
PFM program name | OS | Copy destination folder | |
PFM - Manager | Windows | PFM-Manager-installation-folder\setup | installation-folder\setup\jpcagtvw.EXE |
UNIX | /opt/jp1pc/setup/ | installation-folder\setup\jpcagtvu.Z | |
PFM - Web Console | Windows | PFM-Web-Console-installation-folder\setup | installation-folder\setup\jpcagtvw.EXE |
UNIX | /opt/jp1pcwebcon/setup/ | installation-folder\setup\jpcagtvu.Z |
To use PFM - Manager to set up PFM - Agent for Service Response, execute the following command:
jpcconf agent setup -key SR (jpcagtsetup agtv)
Although the above example shows interactive execution, you can also execute the jpcconf agent setup command non-interactively. For details about the jpcconf agent setup command, see the chapter that explains the commands in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management Reference.
After completing this step, you may delete the PFM - Agent for Service Response setup files from the PFM - Manager host.
To use PFM - Web Console to set up PFM - Agent for Service Response, execute the following command:
jpcwagtsetup
After completing this step, you may delete the PFM - Agent setup files from the PFM - Web Console host.
You must specify network settings only when you change the network configuration where Performance Management is used.
The following two network items can be set:
Performance Management's operating status is output to a log file unique to Performance Management. This log is called the common message log; it consists of two files with a default size of 2,048 kilobytes each. This setting is required only when you wish to change this file size.
For details, see the chapter that describes installation and setup in the Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management Planning and Configuration Guide.
These settings are required only when you wish to change the storage location, backup folder, export folder, or import folder for the database that stores the performance data managed by PFM - Agent for Service Response.
The default storage locations for the performance data are as follows:
For details, see 2.4.1 Changing the performance data storage destination.
On the host where PFM - Agent for Service Response is installed, you must specify the PFM - Manager that is to manage that PFM - Agent for Service Response. This PFM - Manager is called the connection-target PFM - Manager, and you use the jpcconf mgrhost define (jpcnshostname) command to set it.
To specify the connection-target PFM - Manager:
jpcconf mgrhost define -host host01 (jpcnshostname -s host01)
You can log information in the action log when, for example, PFM services start and stop, and the status of the connection to PFM - Manager changes. The action log stores history information that is output in conjunction with the alarms for thresholds related to system load and other conditions.
For details about how to set up the action log, see I. Outputting Action Log Data.
At the host where PFM - Agent for Service Response is installed, you must set start options, such as the maximum number of measurement conditions for a probe and the maximum size of a report file.
You set the start options for PFM - Agent for Service Response by editing the Probe action condition definition file. For details about the Probe action condition definition file, see 7.2 Probe action condition definition file (esp.conf).
To use IE Recorder to define IE scenarios, you must set action conditions for the IE Recorder on the host where PFM - Agent for Service Response is installed.
You define IE Recorder action conditions by editing the IE Recorder action condition definition file. For details about the IE Recorder action condition definition file, see 7.8 IE Recorder action condition definition file (jpcvierec.conf).
To use Web Recorder to define Web transactions, you must set action conditions for the Web Recorder at the host where PFM - Agent for Service Response is installed.
You define Web Recorder action conditions by editing the Web Recorder action condition definition file. For details about the Web Recorder action condition definition file, see 7.9 Web Recorder action condition definition file (wr.conf).
