Dashboard

When you access the manager on an application server, you can use the Dashboard interface. Use Dashboard to monitor the status of the manager, its associated management servers and proxies, and any services that are run by using the manager.

Service Monitoring

Under Service Monitoring, you can review the service instance records that are generated when a service or service set is run. The service instance records contain status information for each service instance.

If you access the manager on an application server, service groups determine which service instance records are displayed under Service Monitoring. A user can see a service instance record only if the user has access to all service groups to which all of the associated services belong. For example, user smith does not have access to any service groups. User smith therefore cannot see any service instance records for any services that belong to a service group. User smith also cannot see any service instance records for any service sets that contain services that belong to a service group.

Service Management
Under Service Management, you can review a graph that indicates the ratio of services that are ready to services that are not ready. Services that are ready to run meet all of the following criteria:
  • The service is assigned to a management server that is active and connected to the manager. If a license is required to run a service, the management server must also contain a valid license for the service.
  • The service is assigned to a proxy that is active and connected to the manager and the management server. The proxy must also be able to run the service type associated with the service. For service types Executor and Distributed, the service execution component must be installed and configured, and the proxy must be configured to run the service execution component.
  • The database driver that is specified in the service is loaded into the repository.
Double-click the graph to jump to the location where you can run services that are ready.

Configuration
Under Configuration, you can review the status of the management servers and proxies that have been added to the manager. You can also see whether there are any connection issues between the manager and the management servers and proxies. Connection issues can indicate that there is a network issue or that the management servers or proxies are not running.
