3.6 Related node display function
Through the related node display function, JP1/IM manages the relations between monitoring targets (knowledge) to visualize how related nodes are linked to one another. Based on the IM management node selected in the integrated operation viewer, the IM management nodes (related nodes) matching one of the following conditions are displayed:
-
IM management nodes that are related to the selected one through the IM management node link# (corresponding to from or to)
-
IM management nodes that are either a parent or child of the selected IM management node in the IM management node tree
- #
-
IM management node links are based on objects generated by plug-in files for linking with other products combined with information provided in theIM management node link definition file (imdd_nodeLink_def.conf). For details about the plug-in files see Chapter 4. User-created Plug-ins in the manual JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Command, Definition File and API Reference.
For details about the IM management node link definition file (imdd_nodeLink_def.conf), see IM management node link definition file (imdd_nodeLink_def.conf) in Chapter 2. Definition Files in the manual JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Command, Definition File and API Reference.
The IM management nodes (related nodes) matching one of the above-mentioned conditions are displayed on the Related node tab of the integrated operation viewer, with lines showing how these IM management nodes are related to one another. Displaying the relations between IM management nodes in a window facilitates sharing of know-how accumulated by skilled individuals across the system.

When you click an IM management node, the nodes related to the selected node are displayed. You can also view information that indicates how these nodes are related to one another, such as the target host of the job and the resource group name, as well as detailed information regarding the relations between nodes, such as jobs related to the target host, in the same window.
Relations displayed in the window are color-coded according to type. You can narrow down the relations to be displayed in the window by using the Relation line filter. The relation line filter items and their meanings are provided below.
