Performance Management can be linked with JP1/SLM for system monitoring.

Using Performance Management, you can analyze collected performance data and identify potential problems. Linking with JP1/SLM allows you to analyze performance data collected by Performance Management, detect signs of irregularities in service performance, and respond to events identified from past monitoring results.

You can also log on to PFM - Web Console as a JP1 user from JP1/SLM.

About JP1/SLM

JP1/SLM is a JP1-series product whose purpose is to monitor services so that service levels can be maintained.

An unexpected problem in a widely used or essential service can have major effects on users. JP1/SLM supports service level maintenance in the following ways:

  • Out-of-range value detection

    A monitoring method that detects marked abnormalities in the service performance of a monitored service as indications of a problem.

  • Trend monitoring

    A monitoring method that evaluates trends in the service performance of a monitored service and predicts from this data when a performance threshold will be exceeded.

  • Threshold value monitoring

    A monitoring method that detects a problem when the service performance of a monitored service exceeds a set threshold value, and enables remedial measures based on past monitoring results.
