Key Performance Indicator Metrics and Run-Time Event Notifications
CentraSite can receive run-time events and Key Performance Indicator (KPI) metrics. A run-time event is an event that occurs while services are actively deployed on the target. Examples of run-time events include:
*Successful or unsuccessful SOAP requests or responses.
*Policy violation events which are generated upon violation of service’s run-time policy.
*Service monitoring events which are generated by the service-monitoring actions in the run-time policy.
KPI metrics are used to monitor the run-time execution of virtual services. Metrics include the maximum response time, average response time, fault count, availability of virtual services, and so on. If you include run-time monitoring actions in your run-time policies, the actions monitor the KPI metrics for virtual services, and can send alerts to various destinations when user-specified performance conditions for a service are violated.
CentraSite provides predefined event types for use with any supported policy-enforcement point (PEP), such as webMethods Mediator. In addition, you can create custom event types.
The run-time event data are collected by the PEP and published to CentraSite through SNMP. The PEP publishes data for all run-time events for all instances of the PEP target.
You can view the run-time events and metrics on the CentraSite business user interface. You can view them for all targets, for a particular target, or for a particular virtual service.
The following sections describe:
*The predefined run-time events and metrics.
*The event notification destinations to which you can publish the events and metrics.
*Sending alerts and logging transactions.
*The metrics tracking interval.
To enable Mediator to publish metrics and events, be sure to set the configuration options as described in Configuring Communication with CentraSite.
In addition, you must configure CentraSite to receive run-time events and metrics, as described in the CentraSite Administrator’s Guide.
