Specifying the Monitor URL
Specifying a monitor URL enables the Performance Monitor agents and identifies the monitor servlet.
The agents on the monitored system check the monitor URL value periodically. When the monitor URL value is set to NONE, the Performance Monitor components on the monitored system are disabled.
The monitor URL value must reflect the URL of the monitor servlet that is running on the monitoring system.
To specify the monitor URL:
-
Select PeopleTools, Performance Monitor, Administration, Specify the Monitor URL.
-
On the Specify Monitor page, enter the appropriate value in the Monitor URL edit box.
The format of the URL is .
For example, enter http://server2.example.com/monitor/ps/.
Where ps is the name of the PeopleSoft site.
-
Click Ping Test to ensure that you entered a valid URL and that the URL is available.
-
Click Save and Ping PPM to save the URL into the URL catalog, and to ensure that the associated agents are registered and able to share data with PPMI URL.
If the URL you enter is different than the previous value, the system saves the new value to the URL catalog, performs registration, and displays status of the registered agents.
In the case of a new registration, you must wait at least the duration of the Agent Heartbeat Interval.
If the agents have successfully registered, the PPMConsole (a new browser window) displays a list of all registered agents along with the agent configuration information. If no agents have registered, no list appears.
Note:
In order for the new browser window (PPMConsole) to appear, the PPMConsole needs to be enabled on the Global Administration page.
