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.
Extended information about the health policy fields follows:
Name | The name field is a required, user-defined field. The name field cannot contain the following characters: []> \ / , : ; " * ? < > | = + & % ' # The name must be unique among health policies in a cell and cannot begin with a period (.) or a space. A space does not generate an error, but leading and trailing spaces are automatically deleted. Meaningful and consistent health policy names are recommended. For example, age-based health policies can be indicated by naming them AGE_20DAYS, AGE_15DAYS. and so on. |
Description | The description field complements the name field and is user-defined. This field is optional, but it is recommended in environments with multiple administrators. |
Health condition | Health condition is a selectable field that identifies the health
policy. The possible health policies are identified in the following list.
Some policies are prevention based and some are detection based. Prevention
based policies are used to avoid conditions that might lead to problems, while
the detection-based policies are used to identify existing conditions and
to achieve resolution. These policies can be used 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 that you are using, the minimum number of dynamic cluster instances
remains up and running.
