4.2.2 Considering the SID
When adding the management target, you need to assign an SID that represents the target. For details on the SID, see 7.1 SID.
In this section, the following hosts are used as examples of the management targets for description:
-
Host A where management tool A is running
-
Agent host B managed by management tool A
Specify SIDs as follows:
-
Class of the SID for indicating any SID related to management tool A: _ToolA-M_
-
Class of the SID for indicating a host: Use the reserved word _HOST_
-
SID of the host where management tool A is running: _ToolA-M_hostA/_HOST_hostA
-
Class of the SID for any agent host managed by host A: _ToolA-A_
-
SID that represents host B: _ToolA-M_hostA/_ToolA-A_hostB/_HOST_hostB
- Important
-
Define the class of an SID with a given string starting with an underscore (_) and ending with an underscore (_). In addition, _JP1, a string starting with _HITACHI, and another string starting with _ROOT_, _SYSTEM_, _CATEGORY_, _SUBCATEGORY_, or _OBJECT_ are not available. The class is case insensitive.
If you use a JP1 event to manage the status of a monitoring target, you need to create the SID of the management node from the data of the JP1 event. Check to see if you can create the SID from the data of the JP1 event before considering the SID.
