Server Pool Control page content
The Server Pool Control page, as shown in Figure 4–4, displays data relevant to your current AppServer workload, and allows you to add or reduce the number of AppServers currently running.
Figure 4–4: Server Pool Control page example

For example, use this page to add agents when agent requests are high; you can add agents to the maximum number of agents that your license recognizes. Also, use this page to reduce the agent count during a lag in agent requests. Using the trim feature, you can reduce agents down to the minimum agents property setting.
The Server Pool Control page consists of the following:
- An add/trim selection control that you use to specify the activity you want to perform. When you initiate a manual trim request, OpenEdge Management determines which server(s) to actually remove. See the "Adding or trimming AppServers" section for detailed steps.
- Three distinct, server-related data summary tables that allow you to review relevant AppServer-pool specific data quickly:
The changes you make through add/trim activities can affect the data displayed in these summary tables. The Server pool summary also allows you to kill a specific server process. See the "Killing an AppServer process" section for the detailed steps.
Server pool data initial configuration section
The Server pool initial configuration section identifies AppServer broker configuration properties set in the
ubroker.properties
file. These values display in read-only mode.Table 4–4 identifies and describes each field that displays in the Server pool initial configuration section.
Servers state section
The Servers state section provides a snapshot of the total number of AppServers currently associated with a specific server state. The state details related to agents and the number of agents reported reflect real-time data. This data can fluctuate due to changes in the AppServers' workflow and changes you initiate using the add and trim option.
Table 4–5 describes each field presented in the Servers state section.
Server pool summary section and the kill process option
The Server pool summary section provides:
- Detailed data about each individual server in the AppServer pool associated with a specific AppServer broker. Table 4–6 identifies and describes each field displayed in the Server pool summary section.
- Access to:
- More data about a specific agent.
Use the PID field to access these features. Table 4–6 provides more information about PID.- A control to terminate, or kill, the agent process.
Table 4–6: Server pool summary field definitions This field identifies . . . Identifies . . . PID The process identifier for this Appserver. Click the PID number to display a detail page that provides specific information about this server process and, as necessary, kill the process. See the "Killing an AppServer process" section for more information. State The current execution state of the AppServer process. Port The TCP/IP port number that the AppServer process uses. nRq (Number of Requests) The number of messages sent to the AppServer process. nRcvd The number of messages received by the AppServer process. nSent The number of requests sent by the AppServer process. CPU Usage The percentage of CPU user and system time consumed by a process. Memory Usage The amount of virtual memory (in Kbytes) consumed by a process. Started The time stamp that indicates when the AppServer process started. If the broker is restarted for any reason, the PID and the Last Change value might change. Last Change The time stamp that indicates when the AppServer process last changed execution state.
