JP1 Version 12 JP1/Performance Management - Remote Monitor for Platform Description, User's Guide and Reference


1.2.7 Applicable to cluster systems

You can also use PFM - RM for Platform in a cluster system.

A cluster system links multiple server systems so that they can be run collectively as a single system.

You can run PFM - RM for Platform with a High Availability (HA) cluster system configuration.

Use of a cluster system enables you to configure a highly reliable system that is able to continue to operate, even in the event of a system problem. This enables you to achieve 24-hour/day operation and monitoring by Performance Management.

The following figure shows an example of the operation of Performance Management in the event of a problem on a monitored host in a cluster system.

This example configures two environments with the same settings. It includes an executing node as the host used for normal operation and a standby node as the host used in the event of a failure.
