The flow of importing business group information and monitoring group information into the Central Scope is described below, following the numbers in the figure:
-
Execute the jcfexport command to output business group information and monitoring group information.
-
Execute the jcsdbexport command to output the monitoring tree information shown in the Central Scope. (This information is saved in the monitoring object database of JP1/IM - Manager.)
-
Execute the jcfmkcsdata command to merge the files output in steps 1 and 2.
-
Execute the jcfmkcsdata command with the -g option specified.
-
Execute the jcsdbimport command to import the merged file generated in step 3 into the Central Scope.
For details about each command, see Chapter 1. Commands in the manual JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Command, Definition File and API Reference.
(2) Using the IM configuration management viewer to apply information to the Central Scope
In the IM Configuration Management window of the IM configuration management viewer, you can apply business group information and monitoring group information to the Central Scope. For details about the permissions required for the JP1 user logged in to the IM configuration management viewer to perform this operation, see 7.4.3 Viewing and operating permissions for business groups.
Applying business group information and monitoring group information to the Central Scope updates the monitoring tree of the Central Scope. Note that the hosts placed under a business group are not displayed in the monitoring tree of the Central Scope. The hosts in a monitoring group are displayed in the tree.
