14.1 Overview of monitoring linked with JP1/AJS3

Performance Management can be linked with JP1/AJS3 for system monitoring.

Using Performance Management, you can check reports in which performance data collected from the monitoring targets is displayed in graphs and tables in an easy-to understand format. Linking with JP1/AJS3 allows you to directly display and check reports about the JP1/AJS3 execution agent (agent host) from a JP1/AJS3 window.

The following figure shows an example of monitoring with Performance Management linked with JP1/AJS3.

About JP1/AJS3

JP1/AJS3 is a JP1-series product whose purpose is to automate regular and routine applications.

JP1/AJS3 allows you to automatically process multiple applications by defining the steps in the applications and their order of execution. Because you can define the time at which an application starts or define that an application is to start when a specific event occurs, complex applications can also be automated.

Automating applications with JP1/AJS3 provides the following benefits:

  • Fewer operators are needed to run applications.

    Even if hosts are distributed in different locations, applications can run automatically and they can be operated and monitored from a single host. Thus, just a few operators are needed to run applications, which reduces costs and enables effective use of human resources.

  • Reducing human error improves the reliability of operations.

    Routine tasks can be automated, reducing the risk of operator error.

  • Errors can be handled promptly without a resident administrator.

    You can automate error handling procedures. For example, you can define a process to be performed only in the event of an error, or automatically send email if an error occurs. Thus, prompt error handling is possible even if an administrator is not resident.
