It is sometimes necessary to rebuild the system or change its configuration during maintenance mode as a means of investigating and resolving an issue. In such cases, review the system hierarchy using the configuration management functionality provided by IM Configuration Management or by JP1/Base.
We recommend that you use the IM Configuration Management functionality if you want to centrally manage the hierarchical structure of the system from JP1/IM - Manager. Using IM Configuration Management - View, you can define the system hierarchy by registering the hosts you want to manage, and adding, moving, or deleting hosts in the hierarchy.
If you choose not to use IM Configuration Management, you can define the system hierarchy using the JP1/Base configuration management functionality. You also have access to the JP1/Base functionality for collecting and distributing the information defined in JP1/Base on the hosts.
Decide in advance whether you want to use IM Configuration Management or the configuration management and definition collection and distribution functionality provided by JP1/Base. For details about these functions and considerations at the design stage, see the following table.
