Viewing Portal Statistics
Access the Portal Statistics page (PeopleTools, Performance Monitor, Analytics, Portal Statistics).
This page enables you to view the performance of the portal servlet. All charts have a View in Grid hyperlink to show the chart information in a grid. This enables you to sort the information and to download to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets.
The chart on this page is generated from all Portal Request PMUs 100 (Portal Request) rows grouped by action (login, logout, homepage, target page, error), all PMU 117 (GetContent) rows, and all PMU 116 (Redirect after Login) rows.
Before you view the charts, you must enter search criteria.
|
Field or Control |
Definition |
|---|---|
| System ID |
Identifies each monitored system. PeopleSoft automatically generates this value incrementally. System definitions are created automatically when the first agent of a monitored system registers with the monitoring system. |
| Database Name |
The name of the PeopleSoft application database running on the monitored system. The monitoring system automatically inserts this value when it recognizes and creates a monitored system. |
| User ID |
The user ID of the user who generated the request. The User ID field prompts against the PSPMOPRDEFN table, which is populated by the Lookup program (PSPM_LOOKUP). |
| Performance Trace Name |
You enter the performance trace name to search on PMUs within a particular performance trace. If a user has launched a performance trace in the Performance Console, the system labels every PMU that was generated in a business process with a performance trace name. Performance Trace Name prompts against the PSPMPERFTRACE table, which is populated by the Lookup program (PSPM_LOOKUP). Note: When searching using a performance trace name, the search ignores all agent IDs, so the current system ID is not relevant. |
| From/To Date/Time |
Specify a range of time. The system searches on the monitor date and time, not the agent date and time. If you do not specify a time range, by default, the system displays information for the current day, starting at midnight (12:00 AM). |
| Search |
The Search button performs a search based on the search criteria that is defined on the page. It should be pressed only once per search. If you want to view the most current information, use theRefresh button after running the initial search. If you clickSearch repeatedly, the system returns the same results from the same time range for each search. |
| Refresh |
Updates the To Time value to equal the current time. This enables you to view the most current results of a search. |
