1.3.3 Notes about installing (for Windows)

• Relationship between products

  JP1/IM - Manager requires JP1/Base. When you install the products, note the following:

  • Any prerequisite products must be installed first and in the correct order.

    Install JP1/Base and then JP1/IM - Manager, in this order.

  • Stop JP1/Base before you install JP1/IM - Manager. If you forgot to stop JP1/Base, make sure that you restart JP1/Base. If you do not restart JP1/Base, it will not be possible to manage system configuration information correctly.

• About Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2)

  • When you install JP1/IM - View or JP1/Base, Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2) is installed, and the path of HNTRLib2 (system-drive:\Program Files\Common Files\Hitachi^#) is added to the Path Windows system environment variable.

  • When you install JP1/IM - View, the startup type of the Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Monitor 2 service (Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library) is set to Automatic, the service can start automatically when the system starts.

  #: In Windows, this value might be different depending on the environment because the value of system-drive:\Program Files is determined by the setting of an OS environment variable at the time of installation.

• Settings in the Windows environment

  • During installation, the information listed below is set in Windows.

    The bin folder path of JP1/IM and the HNTRLib2 path are as follows in the system environment variables:

    • Console-path\bin

    This information is added during installation of JP1/IM - Manager.

    • View-path\bin

    This information is added during installation of JP1/IM - View.

    • system-drive:\Program Files\Common Files\Hitachi^#

    This information is added when either JP1/IM - View or JP1/Base is installed.

    In the services file, the port numbers indicated in Appendix C. Port Numbers in the JP1/Integrated Management - Manager Overview and System Design Guide are set. The port numbers are deleted during uninstallation.

  #: In Windows, this value might be different depending on the environment because the value of system-drive:\Program Files is determined by the setting of an OS environment variable at the time of installation.

• About changing an installation path

  • To change an installation path, first uninstall and then install again.

  • If you are changing the installation path of JP1/Base (by uninstalling it and then reinstalling in a different folder), you must first uninstall JP1/IM - Manager and then reinstall it.

    To reinstall JP1/IM - View on the same host as for JP1/Base, uninstall JP1/IM - View first, delete the files under the conf and bin folders at the installation destination, and then reinstall JP1/IM - View.

  • When you change the installation path of JP1/IM - Manager, JP1/IM - View, or JP1/Base, definitions cannot be recovered from a backup. You must re-specify individual definitions after reinstallation.

• About reinstallation

  When JP1/IM - Manager or JP1/IM - View is uninstalled, definition files and log files that were created after installation, as well as files that might be edited by the user, are not deleted. If you reinstall the program while these files remain in the system, the program might not function correctly. Therefore, if you reinstall JP1/IM - Manager or JP1/IM - View, be sure to restart the OS and use Windows Explorer to delete the folder in which JP1/IM - Manager or JP1/IM - View had been installed, and then reinstall the program.

• About downgrade installation

  JP1/IM - Manager and JP1/IM - View do not support downgrade installation. If you want to downgrade a product that has been installed, uninstall the product, and then reinstall it.
