2.7.1 Setting up access control based on business groups

Set up access control based on business groups on the PFM - Manager host.

Important

To control access using business groups, the versions of PFM - Manager and PFM - Web Console must be 10-00 or later. After you enable this function, connections can no longer be established from versions of PFM - Web Console earlier than 10-00.

You can enable or disable access control based on business groups by editing the jpccomm.ini file directly. The jpccomm.ini file is stored in the following location:

On physical hosts
In Windows:

installation-folder\

In UNIX:

/opt/jp1pc/

On logical hosts
In Windows:

environment-directory\jp1pc\

In UNIX:

environment-directory/jp1pc/

Important

If you disable access control based on business groups after creating business group ordinary users, those users are no longer able to log on to the monitoring console. Delete business group ordinary users before you disable access control based on business groups.

To enable or disable access control based on business groups:

  1. Stop all PFM - Manager services by using the jpcspm stop command.

    In a cluster system, stop the services from the cluster software.

  2. Open the jpccomm.ini file on the PFM - Manager host in a text editor or similar.

  3. Enable or disable access control based on business groups.

    In the Common Section section of the jpccomm.ini file, change the value of the following label:

    To enable the function:

    Business Group Monitor Mode=1

    To disable the function:

    Business Group Monitor Mode=0

  4. Save the jpccomm.ini file and close the text editor.

  5. Use the jpcspm start command to start the PFM - Manager services.

    In a cluster system, start the services from the cluster software.
