Access the Global Administration - Global Administration Revisions form.
Displays the URL.
User ID used to access the PPMI servlet.
Password used to access the PPMI servlet.
Limits the amount of data that can be inserted into the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor tables.
Specifies the last user to update the record.
Specifies the Utime when the record was last updated.
Access the System Defaults - System Default Revisions form.
The System Defaults form enables you to set default values for all of the monitored systems. When a new systems register with the monitoring system for the first time, the system adopts the default values that you have set.
Using the System Defaults form enables you to set global values for each monitored system rather than modifying the values for each system separately.
Choose an archive mode. The archive mode specifies how the archive program should process the performance data stored in the monitoring database.
Enables authorized users connected to this monitored system to start a specific performance trace.
Indicates the interval at which agents that do not have any performance data to report or that are in standby mode connect to the monitor servlet to be notified of any configuration changes. If agents post data to the monitoring system before this interval expires, they will be notified of any configuration changes and the timer will be reset. The lower the number, the greater the responsiveness of the agents to configuration changes, but the greater the network traffic. This value cannot be set to zero.
Indicates the interval in which an open PMU is considered timed out. PMU timeouts are measured in days. The PMU timeout value cannot be set to zero. After the specified interval, the system assumes that a PMU that has not completed encountered an error and should no longer be considered open. The reaper program moves timed out PMUs from the current PMU tables to the history PMU tables and sets the status to Reaper Timed Out.
Enables you to reduce the amount of PMU data generated by monitoring just 1 of every N server trips. Sampling does not affect PMUs initiated in a performance trace.
Specifies the rate (in seconds) at which an agent sends performance data to the monitoring system. This value cannot be set to zero. A smaller interval decreases the delay between the time when the monitored system generates performance data and the time it is displayed on the monitoring system. Larger intervals enable more efficient transmission of performance data across the network because the system can consolidate the data into packets. The larger the interval, the greater the Agent Max Buffer size should be set.
Determines the maximum size of the buffer containing performance data. This enables you to cap the amount of data being stored by the agent on the monitored system and the amount of data sent across your network. If this limit is reached, the agent automatically discards new performance data until the current data has been posted to the monitor servlet. The agent posts an alarm to the monitoring if the buffer size threshold is exceeded. The minimum must be 10240 bytes (10 KB).
Select a filter level stored in the system default table applied to monitoring system when no specific definition is applied. Each PMU definition has a filter level set to one of the following: standard, verbose, or debug. Marking a PMU as standard, verbose, or debug will tell JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor system whether or not the PMU metrics should be captured based on what level JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor is capturing data at. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor filter level can be one of the following: standby (no metric data captured), standard (only standard PMUs captured), verbose (standard and verbose PMUs captured), or debug (all PMUs captured).
Access the System Definitions - System Definition Revisions form.
A system refers to a particular monitored system. System definitions are created automatically when the first agent of a monitored system registers with the monitoring system. The database name and GUID (a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne value used to uniquely identify a JD Edwards system) are provided by the agent during its registration process.
This section describes the properties and configuration options for each monitored system.
Identifies each monitored system. JD Edwards automatically generates this value incrementally. System definitions are created automatically when the first agent of a monitored system registers with the monitoring system.
Identifies the name assigned to the database during installation, such as HPDEVORAP or HP9000. - - - FORM SPECIFIC HELP - - - The name of the database running on the monitored system. The monitoring system automatically inserts this value when it recognizes and creates a monitored system.
Identifies the description for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor usage. - - - FORM SPECIFIC HELP - - - A description of the monitoring system to assist recognition. The default value is the database name.
Identifies the unique identifier for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor defined systems. The monitoring system automatically inserts this value when it recognizes and creates a monitored system.
Displays the archive mode you set specifies how the archive program should process the performance data stored in the monitoring database.
Enables authorized users connected to this monitored system to start a specific performance trace.
Indicates the interval at which agents that do not have any performance data to report or that are in standby mode connect to the monitor servlet to be notified of any configuration changes. If agents post data to the monitoring system before this interval expires, they will be notified of any configuration changes and the timer will be reset. The lower the number, the greater the responsiveness of the agents to configuration changes, but the greater the network traffic. This value cannot be set to zero.
Indicates the interval in which an open PMU is considered timed out. PMU timeouts are measured in days. The PMU timeout value cannot be set to zero. After the specified interval, the system assumes that a PMU that has not completed encountered an error and should no longer be considered open. The reaper program moves timed out PMUs from the current PMU tables to the history PMU tables and sets the status to Reaper Timed Out.
Specifies the rate (in seconds) at which an agent sends performance data to the monitoring system.
This value cannot be set to zero.
A smaller interval decreases the delay between the time when the monitored system generates performance data and the time it is displayed on the monitoring system. Larger intervals enable more efficient transmission of performance data across the network because the system can consolidate the data into packets. The larger the interval, the greater the Agent Max Buffer size should be set.

Determines the maximum size of the buffer containing performance data. This enables you to cap the amount of data being stored by the agent on the monitored system and the amount of data sent across your network. If this limit is reached, the agent automatically discards new performance data until the current data has been posted to the monitor servlet. The agent posts an alarm to the monitoring if the buffer size threshold is exceeded. The minimum must be 10240 bytes (10 KB).
Specifies the last user to update the record.
Specifies the Utime when the record was last updated.
Access the Agent Definitions - Agent Definition Revisions form.
Agent definitions enable you to view the details about the agents in monitored systems.
Identifies each monitored system. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne automatically generates this value incrementally. System definitions are created automatically when the first agent of a monitored system registers with the monitoring system.
Identifies the name of the database running on the monitored system. The monitoring system automatically inserts this value when it recognizes and creates a monitored system.
Identifies an agent within a domain. This is automatically generated by the monitor the first time an agent registers.
Displays as Yes or No. If yes, then this agent is responsible for sending resource events for its host and domain to the monitor at the specified sampling rate for the monitored system.
Identifies the name of the domain in which an agent operates.
Indicates whether the domain is an application server, a web server, or a Process Scheduler server domain.
Identifies the name or IP address of the server on which the domain resides including the port number to which the domain listens for requests.
Specifies the directory in which the domain is installed on the server.
Specifies the collator server instance number.
Select this box to make the agent inactive. If selected, the agent's events and PMUs do not appear in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor forms showing current information. You can still view information about events and PMUs sent by inactive agents using the forms that display historical information.
Agent Filters - Agent Filter Revisions form.
Agent filters determine the amount of performance data that is generated and sent to the monitoring system. Depending on the situation, different levels of performance data may be needed to assist in your performance-related decisions. The levels range from no information to extremely detailed information.
Each type of PMU and event is associated with a filter level, which is the lowest level at which the system generates performance data for that PMU or event.
Identifies each monitored system. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system automatically generates this value incrementally. System definitions are created automatically when the first agent of a monitored system registers with the monitoring system.
Identifies the name assigned to the database during installation, such as HPDEVORAP or HP9000. - - - FORM SPECIFIC HELP - - - The name of the database running on the monitored system. The monitoring system automatically inserts this value when it recognizes and creates a monitored system.
Identifies the description for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor usage. - - - FORM SPECIFIC HELP - - - A description of the monitoring system to assist recognition. The default value is the database name
Specifies the last user to update the record.
Specifies the Utime when the record was last updated.
The reaper process (R95900/XJDE0001) maintains the tables JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor uses to store performance data for current, real-time processing. It should be scheduled to run (via scheduler) periodically based on the filter level you are capturing data at and the load your enterprise is under. Performance of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor will degrade if the tables JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor uses to store performance data for current, real-time processing are not maintained by the reaper process.
When JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Performance Monitor gets notified that a PMU has finished (it receives a STOP for an open PMU), it:
Flags the corresponding start and update rows in the current PMU table F95960 for deletion.
Inserts a row for the completed PMU in the F95961 table.
When the reaper program (R95900/XJDE0001) runs, it:
Deletes all rows in current PMU table (F95960) that are flagged for deletion.
Sets the status to timed out for expired PMUs in the current table.
Caution:
If you do not schedule the reaper program to run often enough, the F95960 table will grow very large over time, and it may contain many old, open PMUs.
