IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Application Diagnostics, Version 7.1.0.1
Enable Method Profiling
The problem: Customers running at monitoring level 2 (MOD L2) that select the check box for Method Profiling, might get the following message:
"To make sure your system is instrumented to capture all level 3 data, update the toolkit_custom.properties file within the data collector's custom folder for the monitored application server. Be sure to recycle the application server to ensure proper results. For CICS and IMS, please ignore this warning."
The cause:
Method Profiling, an optional feature at monitoring level 2, is dependent on monitoring level 3 method entry and exit instrumentation. The purpose of Method Profiling is to summarize those level 3 method entry and exit requests, to give you summarized method level data.
The solution:
To enable Method Profiling with default settings, update the toolkit_custom.properties file for each application server to be monitored using this feature. In particular, uncomment the property...
am.camtoolkit.gpe.customxml.L3
...and set...
com.ibm.tivoli.itcam.toolkit.ai.methodentryexittrace=true
