JP1/Integrated Management 2 allows you to define and visualize the relationships among various system elements (such as business
operations, servers, virtual environments, and network devices) based on the expert knowledge of engineers. Defining relationships in this
way means that, when an event occurs, operators can determine the scope of impact based on the event origin and respond swiftly,
eliminating dependence on any single person. Furthermore, you can view various graphs (such as graphs of CPU usage, memory usage,
and the execution statuses of operations) pertaining to the server where the event occurred. Displaying these graphs along the same time
axis makes it easy to compare trends and identify correlations. Based on this information, you can quickly isolate the element determined
to be the cause of the event.
