Table 2‒2: Functions used throughout the operating cycle
Component	Function	Description
Intelligent Integrated Management Base	Monitoring based on the system configuration information and JP1 events	Monitors the relations between the components of the systems based on the system configuration information and JP1 events. Enables you to check JP1 events that occurred on list view on a component basis.
	Displaying related nodes	Displays the relations between monitoring targets (knowledge).
	Linking with other products	Displays the relations between root jobnets if JP1/IM - Manager is liked with JP1/AJS. Displays JP1/PFM performance information if JP1/IM - Manager is linked with JP1/PFM.
Central Console	Event guide function	Displays guidance about methods or procedures for responding to JP1 events.
	Response status management	Manages actions taken in response to severe events.
	Saving event information	Saves JP1 event information displayed in JP1/IM - View (exports the information in CSV form). Saves JP1 event information saved in the integrated monitoring database (outputs event reports).
	Linkage with other JP1 series products	Registers incidents in JP1/Service Support. Sends rule start requests to JP1/IM - Rule Operation. Displays application information (operating procedures) applicable to JP1 events in JP1/Navigation Platform.
Central Scope	Response status management	Manages the status of monitoring nodes.
Central Scope	Guide function	Displays guidance about troubleshooting methods or response procedures.
IM Configuration Management	IM Configuration Management Viewer-based functions	Manages the status of managed hosts. Manages the status of the system hierarchy. Manages the status of the JP1/Base profiles on each host. Manages the status of the profiles on remotely monitored hosts. Checks JP1/Base service activity information on each host.
IM Configuration Management	Import/export of IM Configuration Management information	Exports management information from IM Configuration Management in case an error occurs, and imports the information at error recovery.
Core functionality	Process management	Controls JP1/IM - Manager startup, termination, and other operations. Checks whether JP1/IM - Manager functions are active.
	Service startup control^{#1, #2}	Controls service startup via JP1/Base.
	Command execution^#2	Executes commands from JP1/IM - View. Executes commands by automated actions.
	Definition collection and distribution^#2	Collects and distributes definition information among JP1/Base hosts.

#1: Windows-only function.

#2: JP1/Base function.

You can manage the system configuration information and collect and distribute definition information using either IM Configuration Management or the core functionality. Consider which method to use before you commence operation. For the function details and design considerations, see Table 2-1 Details of functions and design considerations.
