7.4.1 System node generation function
The function generates tree information from the root node to the system node, based on the system configuration information and the information in the system node definition file (imdd_systemnode.conf).
The following table shows the input and output information of the system node generation function.

Input information |
System configuration information |
System configuration information of a linked product that was collected with adapter commands and plug-ins. The system configuration information is shown in the SID and additional information of the SID. For details on the SID, see 7.1 SID. |

System node definition file (imdd_systemnode.conf) |
Definition information of the hierarchical structure consisting of the system, subsystems, and underlying given nodes |

Output information |
Tree information from the root node to the system node |
Information necessary to show IM management nodes in sunburst chart format or in tree format. The tree information is shown in the tree SID and additional information of the tree SID. For details on the SID, see 7.1 SID. |
The system node generation function has the system node generation function using a file and one using a plug-in. Each of the functions is described below.

System node generation function using a file
Based on the information on the system node contained in the system node definition file (imdd_systemnode.conf), the tree SID and additional information of the system node are generated. The tree SID and additional information of All Systems of the root node are also generated.
The following table lists the additional information to be generated of the root node and system node.

System node generation function using a plug-in
If you create a system node other than the system node defined in the system node definition file, use the system node generation function using a plug-in to generate the tree SID and additional information of the system node.
For example, if a product that links with JP1/IM manages something similar to the concept of the JP1/IM system and the users have already been using the product, use a plug-in to generate a system node.
The following table shows what to do on the additional information of the newly created tree SID in relation to the additional information of the tree SID already created if the tree SID of the system node created with the plug-in is the same as the one of the system node created based on the system node definition file.
