12.2.1 JP1 event types

There are two types of JP1 events: JP1 system events and JP1 user events. The main differences are as follows:

Table 12‒7: Differences between JP1 system events and JP1 user events

Item		JP1 system event	JP1 user event
Event ID		A numerical value from 00004800 to 00004881 is output (fixed number).	Any numerical value can be output.#1
Issued event	Occurrence of alarm events	Yes	Yes
	Status change of agents	Yes	No
	Status change of Performance Management services	Yes	No
	Events for operations#2	Yes	No
	Change of health check status	Yes	No
	Suspending or resuming monitoring	Yes	No

Legend:

Yes: Events are issued

No: Events are not issued

#1

Any value can be specified when setting up a JP1 user event.

#2

This is an event generated by PFM - Agent or PFM - RM.

Compared to the JP1 user event type, the JP1 system event type covers a larger range of events. Also, when setting up JP1 system events to be issued, you do not need to edit or copy any definition files required by JP1/IM - Manager. We recommend that you use the JP1 system event type if you are using PFM - Manager 09-00 or later.

The JP1 user event type includes events that are equivalent to conventional Performance Management JP1 events (PFM - Manager versions earlier than 08-11).

You should consider these factors when determining which JP1 event type to use.
