Measures reported by WASJCAConnTest

This test monitors the usage of the JCA connection pools on the WebSphere Application server.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Allocate_Count Indicates the number of connections allocated to the pool during the last measurement period. Number  
Freed_Count Indicates the number of connections that were returned to the pool in the last measurement period. Number A very low value of this measure could result in a shortage of connections in the pool.
Create_Count Indicates the number of connections created during the last measurement period. Number  
Close_Count Indicates the number of connections released from the pool during the last measurement period. Number Ideally, this value should be low.
poolSize Indicates the number of connections in this connection pool. Number  
Free_Pool_Size Indicates the number of free connection available in this connection pool. Number  
Waiting_Thread_Count Indicates the number of threads that are currently waiting in this connection pool Number  
Fault_Count Indicates the number of faults (for e.g., timeouts) that occurred in this connection pool per second during the last measurement period. Faults/sec Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero.
Percent_Used Indicates the current utilization of this connection pool in percentage. Percent This value of this measure is based on the number of connections that are configured for this connection pool.
Percent_Maxed Indicates the number of times (expressed as percentage) all the connections of this connection pool were in use. Percent  
Use_Time Indicates the average time for which the connections of this connection pool were in use. MilliSec  
Wait_Time Indicates the average time a client has to wait before the connections were granted from this connection pool. MilliSec  
Manage_Connection_Count Indicates the number of managed connections that are currently in use in this connection pool. Number  
Connection_Handle_Count Indicates the number of connections that are associated with physical connections in this connection pool. Number
