JP1 Version 13 JP1/Integrated Management 3 - Manager Overview and System Design Guide


14.3.1 Basic configuration

An example of a basic JP1/IM configuration is shown below.

Figure 14‒2: Example of a basic configuration

[Figure]

This example shows a system configuration that manages job execution in a two-tier structure.

The following products are required on each host:

Integrated manager (top-level manager)
  • JP1/IM - Manager

    Runs the Intelligent Integrated Management Base, Central Console, and IM Configuration Management. Intelligent Integrated Management Base stores and manages the relationships between systems, as well as the data-related aspects such as job-management, operation monitoring, and event-management in Intelligent Integrated Management server. It is also required to use JP1/IM - Agent to perform performance monitoring, logging monitoring, and response action. The IM Configuration Management feature is available when the IM Configuration Management database is activated.

  • JP1/IM - Agent

    Required to monitor the manager host and manage the definition files of the manager host from integrated operation viewer.

  • JP1/Base

Base manager
  • JP1/IM - Manager

  • JP1/IM - Agent

  • JP1/Base

Base manager
  • JP1/IM - Manager

  • JP1/IM - Agent

  • JP1/Base

Agents (job execution hosts)
  • JP1/IM - Agent

    You can use JP1/IM - Agent as an agent. JP1/IM - Agent can monitor systems in on-premises and cloud environments, collect performance-data from managed hosts, and send it to JP1/IM - Manager. In addition, commands can be executed by requests from each manager.

  • JP1/Base

    You can use JP1/Base as an agent. JP1/Base performs processing such as sending and receiving JP1 events and executing commands.

  • Job execution programs (user application programs, JP1 products, and so on)

Viewers (for monitoring the system)
  • JP1/IM - View

In the system shown in this example, JP1 events related to the status of jobs executing on the agents are forwarded to the base manager by JP1/Base. Then, if necessary, each JP1 event is forwarded from the base manager to the integrated manager.

The administrator can manage the whole system by logging into the integrated manager from Integrated operation viewer or JP1/IM - View on a viewer.

JP1/IM supports multi-level system configurations. JP1/IM - Manager is required on the top-level manager and on each intermediate-level manager. The Central Scope can also be used on the intermediate-level managers.

Note:

The same agent cannot be monitored from multiple manager hosts.
