adding process to a monitor
I have a lot of servers around the country that are all acting as DC's and are all running the same processes. Is there anyway to create a monitor with the processes set up and then apply it to other monitors, servers, or monitor groups?
How to monitor arbitrary JMX MBeans in WAS 6.0.x?
I'm trying to use the free edition of the console to monitor the HAManager MBean in WAS 6.0. But, it appears that your console only knows about PMI. How can I use it to manage the various runtime MBeans in WAS 6.x. Thanks Billy Newport IBM WebSphere Development Team
SysLog Monitoring
Hi. Another question from me. Is AppManager support SysLog monitoring? If not, will it be included in future versions? BTW, where can I access list of functionalities for your future versions? Any roadmap? Thanks. - irving
Retries before Alerting - Suggestions required
Hi all, We are moving in the direction of providing retries (before generating an alert) at a Monitor/attribute level instead of at a "Global" level. (The current global options are available under "Admin" --> "Global Settings" --> "Retry Polls before Reporting an Error") . This is done as we require such retries option for certain monitors and their attributes and for some these retries need not take effect (as requested by many of you ). Retries need to be configured for 1. Availability 2. Numeric/String

URL monitoring's problem
hi all I used this product to monitor our web-site, but sometimes we have network problem so ApplicationManager can't get this url, and then send the alert. But It is often recovered in 1 or 2 minutes. I need to know whether ApplicationManager have some kind of mechanism so that we can doublecheck this url. And applicationmanager send alert after doublechecking Thanks a lot!!
URL monitoring's problem
Hi all I am evaluating ApplicationManager to monitor our website. But if we have short time network connection problem, URL monitoring will send an alert message. but mostly it's just a false alarm. I am wondering if ApplicationManager have a mechanism that double check this status and then send alert. It can decrease false alarms thank you very much
No more ssh sessions available on HP-UX
Hi there. I've been monitoring 4 HP-UX servers for the last few weeks and recently ran into a problem. There are no more ssh vty sessions available on any of the four servers being monitored. It seems that Application Manager, when using SSH to monitor HPUX, is not logging off or otherwise releasing the ssh session. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated. This is a major concern for us. Also, is there a way to use SNMP to monitor HP-UX machines?
AMDB database question
Is it possible to expand the date range of collected response time data? It seems like amdb.am_managedobjectdata in mySQL is getting cleaned out daily. I've been using some of the data collected for a more detailed report. We're trying to track down an internal network timeout issue dealing with Apaches, a load balancer and tomcats and need more date range sensitive data to help. I just drop the results into Excel and manually graph to show the problem to upper management. It would be nice if I had

Apache Servers show response times 4500
I"m getting a strange result. The apache servers are showing response times of 4500 ms when in fact i know they're responding a lot more quickly at least to direct requests such as http://ApacheServerHost:ApacheServerPort/server-status?auto requests. any ideas? (it's flat lined at 4500 as well)

log file processing
Can I use APM to process logfiles rather than hooking it up to the production infrastructure? I would like to do this for an offline performance analysis that does not require access to the production environment - which is very tightly guarded on this site. Best regards, ray

jboss on HP-UX
I'm having problems monitoring jboss on one of my HP-UX machines. The machine has two interfaces, an internal network interface and an internet interface. When I try to add a monitor for jboss (port 8080, version 3.2.x) on the internal interface, App Manager thinks for a minute or two and comes back with an error saying "Unable to add the Interface for IP Address x.x.x.x. Kindly check whether the machine has dual interface. If it has dual interface try adding with another IP address ". The same thing
Results differ greatly from that shown by TOP command
After starting an Application Manager on server A, I created a service monitor which monitored the Apache service on server B and polled every one minute. It seems ok when the Apache is in no load. Then I continuously run a shell script which executes "ab -n 5000 -c 1000 http://***:80/" continuously , the service monitor shows the CPU utilization on service B is below 5% all the time, while it keeps above 90% shown by the TOP command. Could anyone explain it? Is there something wrong with my operation?
A very minor flaw under Support tab
Hi, I've encountered a minor flaw in support tab where application managers displays product information and 2 monitors (System & DB) which are initially configured by AM at first startup. If I remove one of these monitor manually, MySQL DB monitor for example, the graph of DB info in support tab will be blank (this makes sense because the monitor has been removed), however, the "Alert Configuration" is still available for click under this blank graph. If you click on this link, an exception will

jboss monitoring and security
My understanding of the jboss monitoring component is that you use the http invoker service to obtain mbean information. Our jboss servers have tomcat running on port 80 and we have to run the invoker servlet on this port too. Does this not present a security problem? Is there a better way to do this or am I missing something? I can switch on authentication for the servlet but then I can't see where I would add the information in application manager. How are people dealing with this issue? thank

After adding monitor for SLES 9 no new polling occuring
I'm having trouble monitoring some SLES 9 machines. After I add the machines to the manager, they never get polled again for new information. They have good response time and availability is reported as 'Up', but the health never changes because it can't get any new information. I've double checked my snmp configuration and things look like they are in order there.

Application Manager stops monitoring
Last week Applications Manager stops monitoring of all items. Normally there are this picture what shows "Today's Availability" but last week there were just "There is no data available at this moment.". This was in all kind of monitors. Appmanager didn't inform me anything about it couldn't collect data. It just shows green light. After restart of Application Manager it works now. I didn't find anything odd from logs than this WARN 23 Jun 11:06 [com.sshtools.j2ssh.transport.HostKeyVerification]
Adding systems with the seed.file
I've specified systems to be added in the seed.file using the DISCOVER_IP mechanism like so: </TO_DISCOVERIP> <ip NODE_ID="172.30.40.28" NETMASK="255.255.255.0" DISCOVER_PARENTNET="false" COMMUNITY="community"/> </TO_DISCOVERIP> The systems are being discovered but the SNMP community string being used for all systems is "public", rather that the COMMUNITY string I specified in the seed file. All the systems then end up as "Unknown". (This technique works fine in OpManager).
Monitoring a cluster
Hi I used Applications Manager for my diploma work, I built a MySQL-Cluster and a JBoss-Cluster. The MySQL-Cluster (or JBoss-Cluster) is unavailable if both instances are down, how can I configure that in one monitor group (I could make a monitor group for each cluster, then it would be useful to group both monitor group into a parent monitor group). Do I something wrong or does the Applications Manager not support clustering? Cheers Andy
