11.3.3 Link with other systems in a multiple-monitoring environment
When linking with other JP1 products in a multiple-monitoring environment, you must specify the same settings on the primary Manager and the secondary Manager.
The following describes settings for each linkage product.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) When linking with JP1/IM
The settings when linking with JP1/IM are the same as those when multiple monitoring is not configured. For details, see 12. Linking with the Integrated Management Product JP1/IM for Operation Monitoring.
- Important
-
-
When two PFM - Manager services are linked to one JP1/IM service, reports might not be displayable from JP1/IM. For details, see 17.3.7 A connection from the time the JP1/IM's Event Console starts monitoring to PFM - Web Console cannot be established.
-
When a Performance Management report for the host (on which the problem occurred) is displayed from an event in the Central Console, a connection with PFM - Web Console specified in the performance report definition file (performance.conf) is established. This connection is required irrespective of whether the monitoring manager is primary or secondary. The report is not displayed if a connection with the specified PFM - Web Console cannot be established. In this case, edit the PFM - Web Console settings in the performance report definition file so that a connection can be established correctly. For details about how to specify settings in the performance report definition file, see 12.3.3 Setup for linking with JP1/IM (settings for displaying reports from events in the Central Console).
-
(2) When linking with JP1/SLM
The settings when linking with JP1/SLM are the same as those when multiple monitoring is not configured. For details, see 13. Performance Monitoring Linked with JP1/Service Level Management (JP1/SLM).
- Important
-
Only one PFM - Manager service can be linked per JP1/SLM service. Even if the primary Manager goes down, service monitoring in JP1/SLM can continue because performance information continues to be sent from PFM - Agent and PFM - RM. However, you cannot perform operations for Performance Management such as starting or stopping of monitoring from JP1/SLM. Therefore, when the primary Manager goes down, you must change the connection target to the secondary Manager.
(3) When linking with JP1/AJS3
The settings when linking with JP1/AJS3 are the same as those when multiple monitoring is not configured. For details, see 14. Monitoring Linked with JP1/AJS3.
- Important
-
When Performance Management reports are directly displayed from JP1/AJS3, a connection with PFM - Web Console specified in the JP1/AJS3 - Web Console environment-settings file (ajs3web.conf) is established irrespective of whether the monitoring manager is primary or secondary. The reports are not displayed if a connection with the specified PFM - Web Console cannot be established.
To avoid such problems in a multiple-monitoring environment, set up individual instances of JP1/AJS3 - Web Console on both the primary PFM - Web Console and the secondary PFM - Web Console.
