External System Health Check

This page is accessed via Configuration and Administration > Process Management > External System Health Check.

Note: Only users with Administrators rights can run this action.

Administrators can use this process to check the external systems periodically and notify the designated contact if there are errors detected. The system will check to see if the external system is online, and if a connection has been established to it. The health check options for each external distance engine may be configured by editing the glog.ExternalDistanceEngine Properties:

• glog.ExternalDistanceEngine.HERE.v8.healthcheck
• glog.ExternalDistanceEngine.HEREGeocoding.healthcheck
• glog.ExternalDistanceEngine.PCMilerRailWS.healthcheck
• glog.ExternalDistanceEngine.PCMilerWS.healthcheck.

1. Select an External System Type.
2. Select an External System. You can select multiple external systems.
3. Enter a Contact. If there are errors detected, this contact will be notified via email.
4. If you are running cluster scalability, specify a cluster to which this request should be assigned.
5. Enter a User Role. When you run, publish, or schedule a recurring process, you can specify the user role used to perform the process, just like when you run agents. The user role can be used to specify a separate VPD role or another domain to run the agent. When a recurring process is modified, the user role of the recurring process can be modified as well.
6. Select a Log Profile to generate focused logging when reproducing an error for the specific action. You cannot select a log profile when you choose to schedule a process, as automatic generation of action logs is not supported.
7. Select Execute, Publish, or Schedule to determine when the process will be executed.
8. Click Submit.
