2.4.4 Setting up JP1/IM - Manager (for Windows)
You need to create and set up an integrated monitoring database to change the severity of events or consolidate a large number of events into one event. You also need to create and set up an IM Configuration Management database to use IM Configuration Management to manage the system hierarchy. These databases are generically called IM databases. This subsection describes how to create and set up IM databases.
The number of arguments for a command to be executed varies depending on whether the integrated monitoring database or the IM Configuration Management database is set up first. This manual describes the command arguments when the integrated monitoring database is installed first.

Specification details
Specification |
Description |
---|---|
#IM DATABASE SERVICE - DB Size IMDBSIZE=S |
Specifies the size of the IM database to be created as S, M, or L. At installation, S is set. |
#IM DATABASE SERVICE - Data Storage Directory IMDBDIR=manager-path\database |
Specifies the absolute path of the directory in which data for the IM database is to be stored. Use a string of no more than 95 characters. At installation, manager-path\database is set. To change the value of IMDBDIR, do not specify a network drive (displayed in a list by net use executed from the command prompt) or Windows reserved device file (AUX, CON, NUL, PRN, CLOCK$, COM[0-9], or LPT[0-9]). |
#IM DATABASE SERVICE - Port Number IMDBPORT=20700 |
Specifies the port number used by the IM database. The range of permitted port numbers is from 5001 to 65535. At installation, 20700 is set. |
#IM DATABASE SERVICE - DB Install Directory IMDBENVDIR=manager-path\dbms |
Specifies the absolute path of the directory in which the IM database is to be installed. Use a string of no more than 195 characters. At installation, manager-path\dbms is set. To change the value of IMDBENVDIR, do not specify a network drive (displayed in a list by net use executed from the command prompt) or Windows reserved device file (AUX, CON, NUL, PRN, CLOCK$, COM[0-9], or LPT[0-9]). |

(2) Preparations for setting up the IM database (for Windows)
You need to prepare a setup information file that specifies the size of the database area required to set up an IM database and information about the database storage directory.
Prerequisites
The following conditions must be satisfied:
-
JP1/IM - Manager is installed on the manager.
-
The OS user has Administrator permissions.
Procedure
-
Edit the setup information file (jimdbsetupinfo.conf).
The setup information file is created during installation of JP1/IM - Manager. However, you do not have to change the default settings unless you want to do something not covered by this manual.
The setup information file is stored in:
manager-path\conf\imdb\setup\

(3) Setting up an integrated monitoring database (for Windows)
Create an integrated monitoring database and set it up for use with the central console functions.
Prerequisites
The following conditions must be satisfied:
-
Sufficient disk space for creating an integrated monitoring database is allocated to the drive on which JP1/IM - Manager is installed.
-
The OS user who will execute the jcodbsetup and jcoimdef commands has Administrator permissions.
Procedure
-
Execute the following jcodbsetup command to create an integrated monitoring database:
"console-path\bin\jcodbsetup" -f setup-information-file-name -q
If the UAC function is enabled, execute the command from the administrator console.
It might take a long time to execute this command.
The IM database service is created at this time.
-
Execute the following jcoimdef command to enable the integrated monitoring database:
"console-path\bin\jcoimdef" -db ON
-
Restart the JP1/IM2-Manager service.

(4) Setting up an IM Configuration Management database (for Windows)
Create an IM Configuration Management database and set it up so that the IM Configuration Management service can be started from process management.
Prerequisites
The following conditions must be satisfied:
-
Sufficient disk space for creating an IM Configuration Management database is allocated to the drive on which JP1/IM - Manager is installed.
-
The OS user who will execute the jcodbsetup and jcoimdef commands has Administrator permissions.
If the integrated monitoring database has already been set up according to 2.4.4(3) Setting up an integrated monitoring database (for Windows) (the setup procedure described in this manual), the following condition must also be satisfied:
-
The status of the IM database service is Running.
Procedure
-
Stop the JP1/IM2-Manager service.
-
Execute the following jcfdbsetup command to create an IM Configuration Management database:
"manager-path\bin\imdb\jcfdbsetup" -s -q
If the UAC function is enabled, execute the command from the administrator console.
It might take a long time to execute this command.
-
Execute the following jcoimdef command to enable the IM Configuration Management service (jcfmain):
console-path\bin\jcoimdef" -cf ON
-
Start JP1/IM - Manager.

Prerequisites
The following conditions must be satisfied:
-
An integrated monitoring database is set up.
-
The OS user who will execute the jcoimdef command has Administrator permissions.
Procedure
-
Stop the JP1/IM2-Manager service.
-

-
Execute the jddsetaccessuser command to configure the users who can access the monitored products when system configuration information is collected.
-
Define the linked products and the name of the hosts from which configuration information of the monitoring objects in the linked products is collected, in the target host definition file for configuration collection (imdd_target_host.conf).
-
