JP1 Version 12 Infrastructure Management: Getting Started


A. Using the product more efficiently

This section explains how to use JP1/OA more efficiently. For details, see the JP1/Operations Analytics Configuration and Administration Guide.

Monitoring resources by using SNMP traps

You can register received SNMP traps as events in JP1/OA. In addition, you can also register the sources that issue traps as management targets in JP1/OA. This enables you to quickly grasp any changes in the state of your IT resources.

Managing user accounts by using the authentication function of JP1/Base
You can use the authentication function of JP1/Base to manage user accounts of JP1/OA. By linking with JP1/Base, you will not need to manage users in JP1/OA. You can also use JP1 users that were already created.
Analyzing the cause of a failure based on JP1 event information
You can select a JP1 event from a JP1/IM window to start a window of JP1/OA. The administrator can analyze the cause of a failure by checking the node related to the JP1 event information.
Issuance of JP1 events
Events to be registered in the Event tab of JP1/OA can be issued as JP1 events.
Registering a change management item
By linking with JP1/Service Support, you can use JP1/OA to register an action to be taken for a failure in JP1/Service Support as a change management item. By managing actions as items, you can visualize the workflow and share information among persons in charge to proceed with operations.
Instructing the operator to take action for a failure
By linking with JP1/Navigation Platform, you can use JP1/OA to instruct the operator to take action for a failure. The operator can take action for the failure while using a JP1/Navigation Platform window to check how to take action.
Expanding the management targets
In JP1/OA, the following resources can also be managed, in addition to the management targets described in this manual. By expanding the management targets, you can easily understand the status of a diversified IT platform system.
  • Applications (including third-party products)
  • Containers
  • Cloud environments
  • Hosts or storage systems of your choice (via SNMP)
