1.3 Example system configuration

This section explains a system configuration using JP1/AJS3 - Definition Assistant.

You can install and use JP1/AJS3 - Definition Assistant on the manager host for which definition information is to be defined, but for load-balancing purposes, we recommend that you install it on another host.

Also, to run JP1/AJS3 - View from the definition information management template, or to open the definition information management template from JP1/AJS3 - View, install JP1/AJS3 - Definition Assistant on the same host as JP1/AJS3 - View.

If you use a host name to specify the connection destination JP1/AJS3 - Manager, JP1/AJS3 - Definition Assistant does not run properly in an environment where the conversion of a host name to an IP address is not possible. You must set up the hosts file or the DNS server to enable this conversion.

JP1/AJS3 - Definition Assistant does not reflect the settings of the jp1hosts file or the jp1hosts2 file, so set the host name by using the hosts file or the DNS.

If the mode of the communication protocol of the JP1/AJS3 - Manager connection destination is dual stack mode, enabling both IPv4 and IPv6 to be used, IPv6# can be used as the JP1/AJS3 - Definition Assistant communication protocol. If you use IPv6 as the communication protocol, specify whether to give higher priority to IPv6 addresses for resolving host names by using the PREFERIPV6ADDRESSES environment settings parameter. For details about environment settings parameters, see 3.2 Environment settings parameters.

Note that if the user authentication function is being used, these settings or settings in the hosts file are required. For details about the user authentication function, see 2.8 User authentication function.

#

If you specify a host name with an IPv6 address, it might not be possible to use special IP addresses or notation. For details about the special IP addresses and notation that cannot be used, see the JP1/Base User's Guide.

The following figure shows an example of a recommended system configuration.
