JP1 Version 12 Infrastructure Management: Getting Started


1.1 What you can do with JP1/OA

The consolidation and virtualization of IT-base system servers, as well as an increase in the number of applications used to manage business operations, has complicated system configuration work, leading to an increase in what needs to be monitored. After implementing cloud computing to optimize your IT investments, do you have to spend a lot of time trying to understand the entire IT base system?

By introducing JP1/OA, you can get an overview of the operating information of complicated IT base systems. In addition, by simply selecting a device displayed in JP1/OA, you can check the configuration information for the business systems using that device and the configuration information for related devices. Furthermore, monitoring the applications from JP1/OA enables you to get an overview of the status of IT base systems, including applications started from an application in which a JP1 event occurs.

Thus, if a failure occurs in the IT base system, you can isolate the degree of impact and urgency for the failure based on the configuration information for the entire IT base system and take the appropriate action.

In addition, if you receive an inquiry from a customer but no failure has occurred, or if many failures have occurred in the IT base system, do you always know which analysis you should perform first? With JP1/OA, you can identify problematic locations by analyzing the correlation between the performance data of each resource. This allows you to quickly determine the degree of impact and severity of each problem, and to take the appropriate action.

With JP1/OA, you can spend less time managing your entire IT base system and instead spend more time on your business.
