The topics listed here provide procedures, conceptual information, and reference information for monitoring a Sun Master Index (Repository)application.
Note that Java CAPS includes two versions of Sun Master Index. Sun Master Index (Repository) is installed in the Java CAPS repository and provides all the functionality of previous versions in the new Java CAPS environment. Sun Master Index is a service-enabled version of the master index that is installed directly into NetBeans. It includes all of the features of Sun Master Index (Repository) plus several new features, like data analysis, data cleansing, data loading, and an improved Data Manager GUI. Both products are components of the Sun Master Data Management (MDM) Suite.
What You Need to Know
These topics provide information about alert codes and error messages for Sun Master Index (Repository).
The Enterprise Manager Monitor (known simply as the Monitor) allows you to quickly identify problems with components or systems in the Repository framework and, in some cases, to correct the problem. The following topics provide additional information about the Monitor:
The Monitor alerts you to the status of components (for example, whether they are running) and allows you to send commands to the components such as start or shut down. From the Monitor, you can double-click a Sun Master Index application or related project component to go directly to the problem. The Monitor allows you to filter the list of displayed instances to quickly identify exceptions and to navigate to specific versions of a Service to monitor the progress of each instance. Sun Master Index components cannot be stopped or restarted from the Monitor, but eWays and other associated components can.
The Monitor provides visual cues to let you know when a component needs attention. For example, the Connectivity Map displays a flashing red square when a Service becomes inactive. If you configure the Alert Agent or SNMP Agent, you can avoid having to run the Monitor continuously. The agent will notify you when a specified problem occurs.
You can use the Enterprise Manager to monitor most components of a Sun Master Index system, including Collaborations, Business Processes, and eWays. Selecting any of the displayed components displays more information about their status, alerts, log entries, and so on.
In order to view the special tools for each component type, you must have the Enterprise Manager Plug-in files uploaded and installed for those types. For more information about installing the Enterprise Manager Plug-ins for Sun Master Index, Adapters, and other components, see Installing Plugins Using Enterprise Manager Web Applications Manager in Using the Java CAPS 6 Installation GUI. The name of the Sun Master Index plug-in is eView Enterprise Manager Plug-in.
The following topics provide information about working with log files and understanding the error messages that occur.
When a component or system is not working, errors are written to the server log file to help you diagnose the problem. You can specify the level at which events are recorded in the log files. On a daily basis, review the runtime log files for Sun Master Index project components and examine any messages with a severity level of WARNING or SEVERE. Periodically, you might want to archive the log files.
You can modify the level at which each Master Index component is logged using the GlassFish Admin Console. The default logging level for all modules is INFO.
Launch the GlassFish Admin Console.
Under Common Tasks, click Application Server.
On the Application Server page, select the Logging tab and then select the Log Levels tab.
In the Additional Properties table, click Add Property.
An empty row appears in the table.
In the empty row, enter the following information:
Name – The name of the Master Index component to configure for logging. Enter any of the component names in the table below.
Value – The level at which you want errors logged for the Master Index component. Possible values are listed at the top of the Log Levels page.
Click Save at the bottom of the page.

Alerts are triggered when certain conditions occur in project components. The condition might be some type of problem that must be corrected, such as when the connection to the database is lost, or it could be simply a warning, such as when a transaction error occurs on the EDM. From the Monitor, you can view component alerts, modify the status of an alert, or delete alerts.
A list of Sun Master Index alerts appears in Table 1. For more information on alerts, see the Using Enterprise Manager Management Application in Java CAPS.
The following table list and describes the alerts generated by Sun Master Index (Repository). Most of these alerts are the result of calling specific Sun Master Index methods in Collaborations or Business Processes. Variables in the error message appear in italics. The alert code for all Sun Master Index alerts is “EVIEW-00001”.
