6.3 Defining an automated action
You can define an automated action in either of two ways: Using the Action Parameter Definitions window in JP1/IM - View, or by creating an automated action definition file and applying its contents using the jcachange command.
JP1/IM provides an automated action definition file and an automatic action definition file (for compatibility). The Action Parameter Definitions window differs depending on which of these two files you are using.
For details about the contents you can define in an automated action definition file and automatic action definition file (for compatibility), see the references given in the following table.

When a value other than 1 to 4 is specified in DESC_VERSION, version information "3" is assumed.
When DESC_VERSION is unspecified, the automatic action definition file (for compatibility) (version information "2") is assumed.
We recommend that you check the contents of the definition file by executing the jcamakea command.

The action definition file for migration (replaceactdef.conf) is supplied for compatibility when using version 5 of the automated action function. You cannot simply edit this file for use with version 09-00 or later. Instead, create an actdef.conf file that matches the contents of replaceactdef.conf. For details about the automated action definition files, see Automated action definition file (actdef.conf) and ACTIONDEFFILE in Automated action environment definition file (action.conf.update) in Chapter 2. Definition Files in the manual JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Command, Definition File and API Reference.
You cannot use both replaceactdef.conf and actdef.conf.
