Resource monitoring terms
Before you begin monitoring database resources, it is important to understand the different pieces of resource monitoring and how they work together. A resource is a specific component of your configuration.
OpenEdge Management monitors the following resource types:
OpenEdge Management resource monitoring components include:
- Alerts — Notifications sent when rules are broken.
- Actions — Activities triggered in response to alerts. For example, you might indicate that you want to receive an e-mail if a database crashes.
- Resource monitoring plan — A plan that identifies the rules against which a resource is monitored and the schedule for that monitoring. OpenEdge Management cannot monitor a resource without a monitoring plan.
- Rules — Criteria against which a resource's performance is measured.
- Schedule — The block of time during which a resource is polled.
This guide focuses on database resource monitoring. See the OpenEdge Management: Resource Monitoring Guide for information about monitoring file, network, and system resources. See the OpenEdge Management: Servers Guide for more information about monitoring OpenEdge servers.
