Monitoring performance using Performance Monitoring Infrastructure
Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) is a feature of the administrative console that allows you to dynamically monitor the performance of components in the production environment, including IBM WebSphere Adapter for PeopleSoft Enterprise. PMI collects adapter performance data, such as average response time and total number of requests, from various components in the server and organizes the data into a tree structure. You can view the data through the Tivoli Performance Viewer, a graphical monitoring tool that is integrated with the Process Administrative Console in IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
You can monitor the performance of your adapter by having PMI collect data at the following points:
- At outbound processing to monitor outbound requests.
- At inbound event retrieval to monitor the retrieval of an event from the event table.
- At inbound event delivery to monitor the delivery of an event to the endpoint or endpoints.
Before you enable and configure PMI for your adapter, first set the level of tracing detail and run some events from which to gather performance data.
To learn more about how PMI can help you monitor and improve the overall performance of your adapter environment, search for PMI on the IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus website: http://www.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/was/library/.
- Configure Performance Monitoring Infrastructure
You can configure Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) to gather adapter performance data, such as average response time and total number of requests. After you configure PMI for your adapter, you can monitor the adapter performance using Tivoli Performance viewer.
- Viewing performance statistics
You can view adapter performance data through the graphical monitoring tool, Tivoli Performance Viewer. Tivoli Performance Viewer is integrated with the Process Administrative Console in IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
