Action Configuration. Specifies the type of action to be configured. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Name | Specifies the name of the metric to be monitored. You can select one of the available metrics: Availability. Indicates whether the native API is available to the clients as specified in the current interval. API Gateway calculates the availability of the native API based on the alert interval specified and it is calculated from the instant the API activation takes place. The availability of the API is calculated as = (time for which the native API is up / total interval of time) x 100. This value is measured in %. For example, if you set Availability as less than 90, then whenever the availability of the native API falls below 90%, in the specified time interval, API Gateway generates an alert. Suppose, the alert interval is set as 1 minute (60 seconds) and if there are 7 API invocations at various times in that 1 minute with a combination of up and down as shown in the table, the availability is calculated as follows:
As the availability of the native API calculated is 66.67% and falls below 90%, API Gateway generates an alert. The API is considered to be down for the ongoing request when API Gateway receives a connection related error from the native API in the outbound call. If the API does not respond with an HTTP response, then it is considered as down. Average Response Time. Indicates the average time taken by the service to complete all invocations in the current interval. The average is calculated from the instant the API activation takes place for the configured interval. For example, if you set an alert for Average response time greater than 30 ms with an interval of 1 minute then on API activation, the monitoring interval starts and the average of the response time of all runtime invocations for this API in 1 minute is calculated. If this is greater than 30 ms, then a monitor event is generated. If this is configured under Monitor service level agreement policy with an option to configure applications so that application specific SLA monitoring can be done, then the monitoring for the average response time is done only for the specified application. Fault Count. Indicates the number of faults returned in the current interval. The HTTP status codes greater than or equal to 400, returned from API Gateway are considered as fault request transactions. This includes the downtime errors as well. Maximum Response Time. Indicates the maximum time in milliseconds to respond to a request in the current interval. Minimum Response Time. Indicates the minimum time in milliseconds to respond to a request in the current interval. Success Count. Indicates the number of successful requests in the current interval. Total Request Count. Indicates the total number of requests (successful and unsuccessful) in the current interval. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Operator | Specifies the operator applicable to the metric selected. Select one of the available operator: Greater Than, Less Than, Equals To. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Value | Specifies the alert value for which the monitoring is applied. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Destination | Specifies the destination where the alert is to be logged. Select the required options: API Gateway API Portal CentraSite Note: This option is applicable only for the APIs published from CentraSite to API Gateway. Digital Events Elasticsearch Email (you can add multiple email addresses by clicking ). Note: If an email alias is available, you can type the email alias in the Email Address field with the following syntax, ${emailaliasname}. For example, if test is the email alias, then type ${test}. JDBC Local Log: You can select the severity of the messages to be logged (logging level) from the Log Level drop-down list. The available log levels are ERROR, INFO, and WARN. Note: Set the Integration Server Administrator's logging level for API Gateway to match the logging levels specified for the run-time actions (go to Settings > Logging > Server Logger). For example, if a Log Invocation action is set to the logging level of Error, you must also set Integration Server Administrator's logging level for API Gateway to Error. If the action's logging level is set to a low level (Warning-level or Information level), but Integration Server Administrator's logging level for API Gateway is set to a higher level (Error-level), then only the higher-level messages are written to the log file. Entries posted to the local log are identified by a product code of YAI and suffixed with the initial alphabet of the logging level selected. For example, for an error level, the entry appears as [YAI.0900.0002E]. SNMP | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Alert Interval | Specifies the time period (in minutes) in which to monitor performance before sending an alert if a condition is violated. The timer starts once the API is activated and resets after the configured time interval. If and API is deactivated the interval gets reset and on API activation its starts afresh. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Unit | Specifies the unit for the time interval in minutes, hours, days, or weeks for the alert interval. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Alert Frequency | Specifies how frequently to issue alerts for the counter-based metrics (Total Request Count, Success Count, Fault Count). Select one of the options: Only Once. Triggers an alert only the first time one of the specified conditions is violated. Every Time. Triggers an alert every time one of the specified conditions is violated. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Alert Message | Specifies the text to be included in the alert. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Consumer Applications | Specifies the application to which this Service Level Agreement applies. You can type a search term to match an application and click to add it. You can add multiple applications or delete an added application by clicking . |
