Understanding service levels typically involves monitoring process state and viewing system metrics.
Oracle Business Intelligence automatically and continuously measures runtime performance in real time. The performance metrics are automatically enabled; you do not need to set options or perform any extra configuration to collect them.
System metrics are available in Fusion Middleware Control for system components within a given Oracle Business Intelligence installation. If you encounter a problem, such as an application that is running slowly or is hanging, then you can view more detailed performance information to learn more information about the problem.
You can use WSLT commands to periodically save metric information to a file so that you have a record of past metric values. See DMS Custom WLST Commands in WLST Command Reference for WebLogic Server.
You can also view metrics for Java components using the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console.
This section contains the following topics:
You can view and graph all the available Oracle Business Intelligence metrics from the Performance Summary page in Fusion Middleware Control.
The data is logged transiently (that is, logging starts when you go to the page and select a particular metric for display).
Use the Administration Console to view metrics for Java components.
You can view metrics on the Monitoring tab for the selected Managed Server, or you can use the Metric Browser. If your deployment is based on the Simple Install type, use the Monitoring tab for the Administration Server.
Log in to the Administration Console.
Expand the Environment node in the Domain Structure window.
Click Servers. The Summary of Servers page is displayed.
Click the server name (for example, oracle_bi1 or AdminServer(admin)).
Click the Monitoring tab.
Click Help for more information about the metrics displayed on this tab.
