JP1 Version 12 JP1/Performance Management Reference


2.1 Items displayed in the PFM - Web Console window displayed on the Integrated Operation Viewer of JP1/IM2

On the Performance tab in the Details area of the Integrated Operation Viewer window of JP1/IM2, you can display a PFM - Web Console window that is appropriate to the component of Performance Management that you have selected in the Operating status area of the Integrated Operation Viewer window, without the need for a login (that is, with just a single sign-on). This requires linkage with JP1/IM2 version 12-10 or later, and the version of PFM - Web Console needs to be 12-10 or later. In this way, you can perform all kinds of operations from a window displayed on JP1/IM2, including the detection of performance-related problems in monitoring agents and the detailed analysis of causes.

In addition, if PFM - Web Console is version 12-50 or later when the product links with JP1/IM2 version 12-50 or later, you can view Performance Management reports in the PFM - Web Console window by using monitor startup from a Performance Management event shown in the Events area or using the JP1/IM2 suggestion function in the Integrated Operation Viewer window of JP1/IM2.

The following figure shows an example of displaying the PFM - Web Console window on the Performance tab in the Details area of the Integrated Operation Viewer window.
