Monitoring a resource
You select the resource you want to monitor and create its monitoring plan. The overall steps, which are covered in greater detail throughout this guide, are provided here.
Once you install OpenEdge Management and set the initial configuration options, you can configure OpenEdge Management to monitor certain remote resources as well as local ones.
To monitor a resource in OpenEdge Management:
- Create a resource monitor (for a database, file, network component, OpenEdge server component, or system component).
- Create a monitoring plan for the resource monitor. The monitoring plan defines all the criteria you want to use to assess the resource's performance. The monitoring plan consists of the following parts:
- One or more schedules that identify the time frame you want to monitor.
- One or more rules that identify the performance standards you set for the resource. If a standard established by a rule is not met, the rule is considered broken and OpenEdge Management generates an alert to notify you of the performance issue.
- An action that occurs when OpenEdge Management generates an alert about a performance issue. Table 1–2 shows a list of the available actions.
