7.2.2 Acquiring the system hierarchy

Using IM Configuration Management, you can acquire from the manager on which IM Configuration Management is running, the definition information of the system hierarchy (configuration definition information) held in JP1/Base on manager hosts. You can then save that information as the configuration definition information in the IM Configuration Management database on the manager on which IM Configuration Management is running. Note that you cannot collect the system hierarchy information from remotely monitored hosts.

Acquire the system hierarchy on the configuration definition information on the IM Configuration page of the IM Configuration Management window.

When the system hierarchy is applied, the content of system hierarchy displayed by the IM configuration management viewer is applied. If the system hierarchy has not been acquired, a system hierarchy different from the currently configured hierarchy might be applied. To avoid this problem, you must be sure to acquire the system hierarchy.

Acquire the system hierarchy as follows:

The configuration definition information held in the IM Configuration Management database is updated when the system hierarchy is acquired. If you want to save the existing information before it is updated, you must export it in advance on the manager running IM Configuration Management.

After the acquisition, the system hierarchy is displayed as follows in IM Configuration Management:

When IM Configuration Management starts, configuration definition information is acquired automatically so that the information held by JP1/Base on the manager running IM Configuration Management can be checked for consistency with the definitions in the IM Configuration Management database.
