34 Monitoring Service and Reference Binding Components

This chapter describes how to monitor service and reference binding components included in SOA composite applications.

This chapter includes the following topics:

• Section 34.1, "Monitoring Binding Component Instances and Faults"

• Section 34.2, "Monitoring Binding Component Rejected Messages"

For more information, see the following documentation:

• Section 1.2.5, "Understanding Binding Components" for conceptual details about binding components

• Part XII, "Administering Oracle B2B" for details about Oracle B2B

• Oracle Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle SOA Suite

34.1 Monitoring Binding Component Instances and Faults

You can monitor instances and faults for all binding components included in SOA composite applications.

To monitor binding component instances and faults:

1. Access this page through one of the following options:

   From the SOA Infrastructure Menu...	From the SOA Folder in the Navigator...
   Select Home. Select the Deployed Composites tab. In the Composite section, select a specific SOA composite application.	Under soa-infra, select a specific SOA composite application.

   
   

2. Click Dashboard (if it is not selected).

3. Select a specific service or reference in the Services and References section.

4. If you select a service, the Dashboard page displays the following details:

   • A graphic representation of the total incoming messages and faults since server startup.

   • Recently rejected messages, including the message name, time of the fault, and the type of fault (business or system).

34.2 Monitoring Binding Component Rejected Messages

You can monitor rejected messages for all binding components included in a SOA composite application.

To monitor binding component rejected messages:

1. Access this page through one of the following options:

   From the SOA Infrastructure Menu...	From the SOA Folder in the Navigator...
   Select Home. Select the Deployed Composites tab. In the Composite section, select a specific SOA composite application.	Under soa-infra, select a specific SOA composite application.

   
   

2. Select a service or reference in the Services and References section.

3. Click Faults and Rejected Messages.

   The Faults and Rejected Messages page shows the list of faults and rejected messages, including details such as the error message, time of the fault, and the associated composite instance ID. Depending upon the type of the binding component selected, the faults can be on the incoming messages processed by a service binding component or outgoing messages processed by a reference binding component.

   You can perform fault recovery from this page.

4. Click a specific message in the Error Messages column to display complete fault details, including the fault ID, fault time, fault location, fault type, and error message text. A Recover Now option displays for recoverable faults. Click Recover Now to perform fault recovery.

5. If you want to delete rejected messages., click Delete Rejected Messages.

6. This displays a dialog for specifying a criteria for deleting rejected messages.
