5.1 IM Configuration Management window

The IM Configuration Management window is used to view or edit the hierarchical system components (IM configuration), the list of source hosts, and the organization of business groups that are managed by IM Configuration Management. When the user logs in to IM Configuration Management - View (IM Configuration Management), the IM Configuration Management window appears.

The IM Configuration Management window has the Host List, IM Configuration, and Business Group pages, one of which can be opened by choosing the corresponding tab. For details about the Host List page, see 5.1.1 Host List page. For details about the IM Configuration page, see 5.1.2 IM Configuration page. For details about the Business Group page, see 5.1.3 Business Group page.

Note that if different versions of IM Configuration Management - View and IM Configuration Management are connected, items might not be displayed as described in the manual or disabled items might be displayed. Even though the versions of these components are the same, these problems might also occur if the version of JP1/Base is different. For details about the differences in window display, see H. Connectivity with Previous Versions in the JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Overview and System Design Guide.

The following figure shows an example of the IM Configuration Management window.
