Obtain advice from the advisors
Overview
Advisors provide a variety of recommendations that help improve the performance of your appserver encapsulating knowledge about the various components in the appserver and their performance characteristics.
The performance advisors provide a starting point to the appserver tuning process and help you without requiring that you become an expert.
The Runtime Performance Advisor is extended to also provide diagnostic advice and is now called the Performance and Diagnostic Advisor. Diagnostic advice provides useful information regarding the state of the appserver. Diagnostic advice is especially useful when an application is not functioning as expected, or simply as a means of monitoring the health of appserver.
Procedure
- Decide which performance advisor is right for the purpose...
- Use the chosen advisor to periodically check for inefficient settings, and to view recommendations.
