Not selected File transfer errors are not monitored.	Selected

#1: If 0 is specified for this item, startup messages are not sent to the target system. In other words, if 0 is set, job execution from Remote Installation Manager and startup of agents using agent control are no longer available.

#2: In general, because many agents are managed in distribution management, deleting job definitions and execution status requires long time for deleting the database. This might cause problems in operations, or place a load on main business operations. You can avoid this problem by delaying deletion of jobs and deleting such jobs at the same time when it is convenient.

Multicast distribution

Item	Description	Specifiable values	Default
Multicast distribution	Specify the port number that is used for multicast distribution of jobs.	0 to 65535	31045

Size of one packet	Specify the size of a packet used when a job is distributed.	1 to 60	40#4

#1: Because multicast distribution uses the UDP protocol, resending of packets occurs during distribution. Therefore, you must set the port number used for a request for resending.

#2: If you use a router that does not support IP multicast, do not select this option. If you do so, the distribution method is switched to unicast distribution, and it takes time until job distribution finishes.

#3: A multicast group must contain the agents that connect to the management server and the relay systems. If the multicast address for the distribution-destination agents and the relevant relay systems is different from the multicast address specified here, jobs are sent by unicast distribution to the agents and relay systems.

#4: The value of 40 KB is efficient enough for 100BASE communication lines. If the communication line is 10BASE, specify 4 KB. Note that, if the packet size is too large, multicast distribution might fail and change to unicast distribution from the middle of distribution.

Error, Finished Jobs whose execution status is Error or Finished are recorded in Remote Installation Manager. Error, Finished, Completed Jobs whose execution status is Error, Finished, or Completed are recorded in Remote Installation Manager.	Error, Finished, Completed

Note: You can reduce the required disk capacity by recording necessary execution results only. If the large amount of execution results of finished jobs remain, Remote Installation Manager might be slower. Therefore, Hitachi recommends that you record only the jobs whose execution status needs to be checked.

#1: The execution status of the following jobs cannot be automatically deleted even after the jobs finish:

• Send package, allow client to choose jobs

• Get system information from client jobs for which the execution date on agents has been specified

• Get software information from client jobs for which the execution date on agents has been specified

#2: For the execution results of an agent that belongs to the IDs managed by the relay system, this setting is enabled for all job types.

#1: If, during the setup for the management server, you specified a host name as the ID key for operations specified in Settings for Address Resolution, specify a host name here. If you specified an IP address, specify an IP address here.

#2: Specify the host name using a character string of 64 or fewer single-byte characters.

#3: Specifically, this number is the number of startup messages that the managing server sends to agents at one time. If the number of agents on which jobs are executed is larger than the specified value, the jobs are divided and executed based on this specified value. If 0 is specified, startup messages are not sent to the lower system, so that execution of jobs initiated by the higher system and startup of the destination using client control will not be available. Note that you must specify the size of a file to be distributed, considering the network performance. If the size is too large (10 MB or more), the network load might increase even with a few agent connections.

#4: If the total size of management files exceeds its upper limit, the throughput of job processing will decrease. Hitachi recommends that you specify an appropriate value for the upper limit of cache size of management files based on the scale of your operation environment, in order to prevent any decrease in throughput of job processing. Use the formula below to calculate the guideline value to be specified, by entering the estimated values for individual elements. If the cache size exceeds its upper limit due to an increase in the number of management files, delete the management file that is least referenced, and then cache a new management file. If Do not cache is selected, the job management files on a disk are accessed every time agents request polling, so replying to the agents might be delayed.

Cache size for management files (KB) = number of executed jobs stored in the relay system x number of destinations for each job x number of packages for each job (for remote installation jobs) x 1 KB

Package ID (1 to 44 single-byte characters)

parameter-4

Package name (1 to 50 single-byte characters)

Example

The following are examples for specifying individual types of dialog boxes:

• Dialog box during download

  1 1 package-ID package-name

• Dialog box during installation (when it is not displayed on top)

  1 2 package-ID package-name

• Dialog box during installation (when it is always displayed on top)

  2 2 package-ID package-name

Window name of the dialog box to be displayed

The window name must be the ones shown below. If you set a window name other than these, you will not be able to hide the dialog box. For the katakana in the window name, specify single-byte kana characters.

• Dialog box during download

  IT Desktop Management 2 - Download

• Dialog box during installation

  IT Desktop Management 2 - Installation

JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 issues the PostMessage function (with WM_CLOSE specified) to direct the user program to stop displaying the dialog box, and then issues the TerminateProcess function to stop the user program process.

#2: Select this check box when you want to reduce the network load. Note that, even if a package for which split distribution is set is distributed, split distribution is not performed if this check box is cleared.

#3: This setting is ignored for the relay system.

#4: When a job is transmitted from the higher system, the JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 Job Suspended dialog box is displayed, and the user can select whether to execute the job. If the user does not want to execute the job immediately, execution of the job can be temporarily suspended. Note that only the Install package jobs in the GUI installation mode can be suspended unless the execution date (installation date and time of the package, or execution date and time of the job) is specified.

#5: The specified number of seconds is displayed (as the remaining time until the execution) in the JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 Job Suspended dialog box. If the value becomes 0, the displayed job is automatically executed, and the dialog box closes.

#6: The JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 Job Suspended dialog box remains displayed until the user operates on the dialog box.

#7: Usually, the display of the Job status window changes at each notification because there is a time gap until completion (or failure) of installation or collection is reported to the higher system after completion of job distribution. However, completion or failure might be reported immediately after notifications on jobs waiting to be installed and collected. If you suppresses notifications, you can reduce the network load (traffic of 170 bytes (340 bytes for ID jobs) for each notification), You can also reduce update processing for the job status on the higher system. You can suppress the following types of jobs:

• Install package

• Collect files from client

• Collect files from client to relay system

When the above types of jobs are executed, notifications are suppressed if both Job specification and Suppression condition in the following table are satisfied.

Job specification			Suppression condition

Legend: Yes: Specified. No: Not specified.

#1: The Collect files from client and Collect files from client to relay system jobs are not subject to suppression.

#2: Only the Install package jobs are subject to suppression.

Communication settings

Item			Description	Specifiable values	Default
Settings to perform polling for multiple higher systems#1	Perform polling for multiple higher systems		Specify whether to perform polling (monitoring of directions from the managing server) for multiple higher systems when the managing server can execute a job using multiple paths.#2 The following higher systems can be set for the polling targets: Management server Relay system Do not set to perform polling for multiple higher systems in the following cases: When you create an agent setting to be assigned to the relay system When you edit the default agent setting	Selected Polling is performed for multiple higher systems. To add a higher system to the polling targets, click the Add button. Then, in the displayed dialog box, specify the host name or IP address, type, and priority of the higher system.

	Multicast address		Specify the multicast address that is to be used to receive jobs for which multicast distribution is specified. Specify the multicast address that is set for the connection-destination higher system.#9	224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.255	238.255.0.1

#1

This setting is ignored for the relay system.

#2

Usually, the agent receives a direction from the managing server and executes the requested processing. However, no directions might be received as a result of, for example, a communication error, or the agent not running. In such a case, the agent can use polling to receive directions. If you use client control, Hitachi recommends that you use polling. If you use a low-speed WAN, you can reduce unnecessary data transmissions and receptions by not using polling.

#3

The higher system with the highest priority displayed in Higher-level system to be polled is always the same as the one specified in Higher-level system for distribution that uses Remote Install Manager of Basic settings.

#4

If the connection to the polling-target higher system becomes unavailable, polling is performed for the higher systems in the order of higher priority, and then a new polling-target higher system is determined.

#5

• This setting is not necessary if the ID key for operations is an IP address.

• If the higher system is a cluster system, connection with the higher system might not be correctly established.

• In an environment in which the higher system uses multiple network adapters, connection with the higher system might not be correctly established.

#6

You can monitor the agent's processing, such as downloading files.

#7

If a retry is performed, the file transmission resumes from the point where the file transmission was suspended. Thus, you can reduce unnecessary traffic because the part of the file that has already been transmitted before the communication error will not be transmitted again. Note that the retry count and retry interval that are specified here are enabled for unicast distribution only.

#8

For the retry interval for transmissions when there is a notification file that has not been sent to the higher system, specify an appropriate value according to the system requirements. For example, for a security audit system (for which information from clients is immediately required), specify a small value.

#9

If you set for this item the multicast address that is set for the connection-destination higher system, this system will be registered in the multicast group that was set as the distribution destination of the higher system.

#10

A value of 40 KB is efficient enough for 100BASE communication lines. If the communication line is 10BASE, specify 4 KB. Note that, if the packet size is too large, multicast distribution might fail and change to unicast distribution from the middle of distribution.

#11

Because multicast distribution uses the UDP protocol, resending of packets occurs during distribution. Therefore, you must set the port number used for a request for resending.

Not selected The programs registered in the Windows Startup group are not automatically moved to the ITDM2_Startup folder.	Not selected

#1: The ITDM2_Startup folder has not been created by default.

#2: If you move the programs registered in the Windows Startup group to the ITDM2_Startup folder, you can avoid installation failure of packages for which Install when system starts is set.
