Define properties of an excessive response time health policy

Use this page to create health policies, which are used to perform a variety of health based assessments on clusters, dynamic clusters, and application server instances running on nodes. To view this administrative console page, click Operational Policies > Health Policies > New.

Excessive response time condition is a detection-based health policy that uses restarting as a method for cleaning up servers whose average number of requests take longer than a specified time. You can use this policy to perform health-based assessments on clusters, dynamic clusters, and application server instances running on nodes. In the case of dynamic clusters, regardless of the health policy you are using, the minimum number of dynamic cluster instances remains up and running.
