15.4.13 Procedure for applying asset management items to management relay servers under the local server
In a multi-server configuration, the settings of the asset management items specified on a higher management server can be shared by the lower management relay servers by applying those settings to the lower management relay servers. The start date for entry of user information can also be applied.
There are restrictions on asset management items that you can apply. For details, see the descriptions about applying asset management items to management relay servers, in the JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 Overview and System Design Guide.
To apply asset management items to the management relay servers under the local server:
-
Display the Settings module.
-
In the menu area, select Assets, and then Asset Field Definitions.
-
In the information area, in Apply to Management Server Under the Local Server, click the Apply to Management Server Under the Local Server button.
-
In the displayed dialog box, select the items you want to apply.
Items that you can select are as follows:
-
Start Date for Entry of User Information
-
Items displayed in the Common Fields (Assets and Device Inventory) list
-
Custom Fields (Hardware Assets)
-
-
Click OK.
-
In the displayed dialog box, click OK.
The asset management items are added to the management relay servers under the local server.
- Tip
-
You can use the Events module for the management server from which you applied the asset management items to check whether the asset management items are completely applied to all management relay servers under the local server. In addition, to check whether the asset management items are completely applied to the specific management relay server, you can use the Events module in the operation window for the management relay server. If application fails, check the detailed information about the event, and then re-examine the settings on both of the application source and destination management servers.
