Configuration of IIBFTPStatTest

This test auto discovers the JDBC Provider configurable service of the IBM Integration Bus and reports how well connections are utilized by each service in the connection pool. Using this test, you can figure out the number of connections that are available for use and the requests that are handled by the connection pool. This test proactively alerts administrators to slowdowns/bottlenecks in obtaining connections and the timeouts experienced while waiting for connections.

The default parameters associated with this test are:

• The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

• Specify the host for which the test is to be configured in the HOST text box.

• Specify the port on which the specified HOST listens in the PORT text box.

• Indicate where the JNDI namespace has been created from the JNDI NAMESPACE LOCATION list box. For this, select one of the following options: File or LDAP. Select File if the JNDI namespace is created in the same location as that of the IIB server.

• If you have chosen LDAP as the JNDI NAMESPACE LOCATION wherein the LDAP server communicating with the IIB server that is to be monitored is an SSL-enabled server, then set the SSL flag to Yes. By default, this flag is set to No.

• In the USERDN and PASSWORD text boxes, provide the credentials of the Active Directory user created as explained in the Monitoring IBM Integration Bus document, if the target IIB server is monitored in an agentless manner. If the IIB server is to be monitored in an agent based manner, specify none against these parameters.

• Confirm the PASSWORD by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

• Specify the URL that was specified as the provider URL while creating the initial context in the JNDI PRVIDER URL text box. To know the Provider URL (for both agent based and agentless monitoring of the IIB server), refer to the Monitoring IBM Integration Bus document.

• Specify the name of the connection factory in the TOPIC CONNECTION FACTORY text box. To know the connection factory (for both agent based and agentless monitoring of the IIB server), refer to the Monitoring IBM Integration Bus document.

• Specify the name of the JMS destination that you have created for storing the Resource statistics in the JMS RESOURCE STATS text box. To know the JMS destination name for storing Resource statistics (for both agent based and agentless monitoring of the IIB server), refer to the Monitoring IBM Integration Bus document.

• Specify the name of the JMS destination that you have created for storing the Message flow statistics in the JMS FLOW STATS text box. To know the JMS destination name for storing Message flow statistics (for both agent based and agentless monitoring of the IIB server), refer to the Monitoring IBM Integration Bus document.

• If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

• Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of "none" in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
