IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Application Diagnostics, Version 7.1.0.1
EJB Containers workspace
Aggregated information about each defined EJB.
Aggregated bean performance data for all Enterprise beans deployed to an EJB container. It also displays aggregated information for the application server that aggregates bean performance data for all Enterprise beans deployed on the application server. This workspace displays data provided by the EJB Containers attributes.
- This workspace reports blanks for resource data on the first invocation if PMI data collection is configured for on-demand sampling (that is, if your site set configuration value Resource Data Collection Method to On Demand) or if you have not yet run applications that generate PMI resource data. To report resource data in this workspace after installing and configuring the data collector, use the WebSphere administrative console to set the appropriate PMI instrumentation level.
- Because of high overhead, the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Agent provides on-demand sampling by default. To activate PMI monitoring, first select this workspace and then select it again later. Each time you select the workspace, it displays the data collected during the interval between selections.
The predefined workspace contains the following items:
- Method Average Response Time - History graph, which shows the average response time for methods invoked by the EJBs in the container
- Method Invocation Rate - History graph, which shows the rate at which an EJB container's methods were invoked
- EJB Containers report, which displays aggregated information for each defined EJB container that aggregates bean performance data for all Enterprise beans deployed to that container. The report also displays aggregated information for the application server that aggregates bean performance data for all Enterprise beans deployed to the application server. For example, this report displays load values, response times, and lifecycle activities for Enterprise beans
