Default parameters for IBMWLPSessTest

For each WAR File deployed on the target IBM WebSphere Liberty server, this test monitors the number of sessions that are accessing the file per second. In addition, this test reports the number of currently cached sessions that were accessing the file, the number of currently active sessions that were accessing the file, the number of invalidated sessions that were accessing the file etc. Using this test, administrators can figure out the WAR file that is being accessed by the maximum number of sessions.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the IBMWLPSessTest.

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

• For the eG agent to collect metrics from the target IBM WebSphere Liberty server, the local connector should be enabled on the target server. Once the connector is enabled, a com.ibm.ws.jmx.local.address file will be created in the ${server.output.dir}/logs/state folder. The eG agent uses this file to connect to the target server and collect the required metrics from it. Therefore, specify the exact path to this file in the SERVICE URL PATH text box. For example, in case of Windows environments, the Service URL Path can be C:\wlp\usr\servers\server1\logs\state and in case of Linux environments, the SERVICE URL PATH can be /opt/wlp/ur/servers/server1/logs/state.

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

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with "$" indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to "xyz" and $port will be changed to "80" when configuring a test.
