4.4.12 Specifying the option for limiting remote operation of Agent hosts and the option for restricting viewing of service information from Agent hosts
If you use the option for limiting remote operation of Agent hosts and the option for restricting viewing of service information from Agent hosts, you can limit the hosts that can be manipulated by PFM - Base's commands to the local host.
For details about each option, see 3.9.4 Settings to limit the host subject to command processing.
To specify the settings for these options, directly edit the contents of the jpccomm.ini file. The jpccomm.ini file is stored at the following location:
- When the target host is a physical host
-
- In Windows:
-
installation-folder
- When the target host is a logical host
-
- In Windows:
-
environment-directory\jp1pc\
- Organization of this subsection

Specify the option for limiting remote operation of Agent hosts on the PFM - Manager host.
To change the settings for the option for limiting remote operation of Agent hosts:
-
Stop all PFM - Manager services.
If PFM - Manager services are running, use the jpcspm stop command to stop all such services. If you are running a cluster system, stop these services from the cluster software.

Save the jpccomm.ini file and then close it.
-
Use the jpcspm start command to start the PFM - Manager services.
If you are running a cluster system, start the services from the cluster software.
(2) Changing the settings for the option for restricting viewing of service information from Agent hosts
The option for restricting viewing of service information from Agent hosts is a function for making status information unavailable on the host that is specified in the -host option during command execution. You must specify this option on the target host.
To change the settings for the option for restricting viewing of service information from Agent hosts:
-
Stop all Performance Management services on the PFM - Agent or PFM - RM host.
If Performance Management services are running, use the jpcspm stop command to stop all such services. If you are running a cluster system, stop these services from the cluster software.
-
Use a text editor or a similar tool to open the jpccomm.ini file on the PFM - Agent or PFM - RM host.
-
Specify whether the option for restricting viewing of service information from Agent hosts is to be enabled or disabled:
Change the value of the following label in the Common Section section in the jpccomm.ini file:
