This section explains which versions can be monitored when servers with different versions are monitored using a multi-server monitoring client.
The following table shows the range of supported connections between different versions of Systemwalker Operation Manager.
For information about the correspondence between the version numbers in the table below and the Systemwalker Operation Manager versions for each operating system, refer to the correspondence table at the start of this appendix.
Monitored server versions: V11.0L10 - V13.8.0
| Monitored server | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
V11.0L10/ | V13.3.0 | V13.8.0 | |||
Monitoring | Login as the system administrator | V11.0L10/ | Yes | Yes | Yes |
V13.3.0 | Yes | Yes | Yes | ||
V13.8.0 | Yes | Yes | Yes | ||
Login as a general user | V13.3.0 | No | Yes | Yes | |
V13.8.0 | No | Yes | Yes | ||
Login using a Systemwalker user ID | V13.8.0 | No | No | Yes |
Yes:
Can connect (and subsystem monitoring is also possible).
No:
Cannot connect.
If a general user logs in to the monitoring server and attempts to connect to a monitored server of V13.2.0 or earlier, the information cannot be obtained since there is no function for authenticating general users in monitored servers of V13.2.0 or earlier. This monitored server will be treated as "access denied" in the host summary window. Also, the job net information will not be obtainable using the Job Nets Management window.
If a general user logs in to the monitoring server and attempts to connect to a monitored server that uses the Systemwalker User Management function, the information cannot be obtained since general users cannot be authenticated in monitored servers. This monitored server will be treated as "access denied" in the host summary window. Also, the job net information will not be obtainable using the Job Nets Management window.
If a user with a Systemwalker user ID logs in to the monitoring server and attempts to connect to a monitored server that does not use the Systemwalker User Management function, the information cannot be obtained since Systemwalker user IDs cannot be authenticated in monitored servers. This monitored server will be treated as "access denied" in the host summary window. Also, the job net information will not be obtainable using the Job Nets Management window.
If the monitoring targets are only the servers for an IPv6 communication environment or a mix of servers for an IPv4 communication environment and for an IPv6 communication environment, all of the monitoring target servers, including those for the IPv4 communication environment, cannot be monitored.
If you log on from a multi-server monitoring client, a message stating that host summary information cannot be found is displayed, and the multi-server monitoring client terminates.
Connection between multi-server monitoring clients and monitoring servers
Connecting a V12.0L10/V12.1 client to a monitoring server running V11.0L10/V11.0 or earlier
Definitions for multiple monitoring hosts cannot be registered or selected.
When monitoring V13.8.0 or later servers from a V13.3.1 or earlier client
If the monitoring targets are only the servers for an IPv6 communication environment or a mix of servers for an IPv4 communication environment and for an IPv6 communication environment, all of the monitoring target servers, including those for the IPv4 communication environment, cannot be monitored.
If you log on from a multi-server monitoring client, a message stating that host summary information cannot be found is displayed, and the multi-server monitoring client terminates.
