Application Availability Monitoring -- Best Practice?

What are you using to monitor application availability? Thinks like making sure that Essbase, Planning, FR, Workspace, FDM, and HFM are up, and responding to requests in a timely manner.
Do Hyperion Management Packs exist for MS System Center Operations Manager?
Someone recommended Oracle Enterprise Manager, but I don't see any Hyperion functionaity in that tool, only Oracle relational database stuff.
Custom development is an option, but I hate reinventing wheels.
Thx, Jeff

I'm headed down a path of semi-custom; using Solarwinds IPMonitor as the backend alerting tool, which calls custom scripts to check the health of the software.
Essbase is easy, I'm using a MaxL script.
What about Planning, HFM, and FR? Does anyone have any ways to script a health check of these applications? I was thinking about making calls to the APS, which can connect to all three of those apps..

JEE MP: Authoring JEE Application Availability Monitor

Hi experts,
We've imported the JEE WebSphere MP's, completed discovery, enabled deep monitoring, and now have some issues authoring custom "JEE Application Availability Monitoring".
In the wizard on the "MBean to Monitor" screen we use the MBean name:

BizTalk monitoring best practice(s)

I am looking for information on best practices to monitor BizTalk environment (ideally using Tivoli monitoring tools). Specifically I am looking for insight into what should be monitored, how one analyzes performance profile. Thanks

While setting up monitoring agents/products for BizTalk server (or for any server/application for this matter), there are two ways to start:
If available, import/install application specific monitoring packages i.e. Import/install prebuild monitoring rules, alerts and actions specific to the application.
Or create the rules/alerts and actions from scratch for the application.
For monitoring products like SCOM, management packs for BizTalk server are available as pre-build, as readymade packages. For a non-Microsoft product like Tivoli check with
the vendor/ IBM for any such pre-build monitoring packages for BizTalk. If available purchase it and install it in Tivoli. This would be the best option to start, instead of spending time and resource in building the rules, alerts and actions from scratch.
If pre-build monitoring package is not available, then start by creating rules to monitor any errors or warnings from event logs of the BizTalk and SQL servers. Gradually,
you can update/add more rules based on your needs.
And regarding analysing performance profile, most of the monitoring product now-a-days comes with prebuild alerts for monitoring the server performances, CPU utilization
etc. I’m sure renowned product like Trivoli shall have prebuild alerts for monitoring the server performances. Same can be configured to monitor the BizTalk’s performances. And also monitoring event log entries would also pickup any performance related issues.
Moreover, Tivoli has got detail user guide document for setting alerts for BizTalk server. Check this
document here.
Reading best practices, links provided by MaheshKumar shall help you.
Key point to remember is no-monitoring product is perfect; you can’t create a fool-proof monitoring alerts and actions on day one. It would get mature over the time in your
environment.
If this answers your question please mark it accordingly. If this post is helpful, please vote as helpful.

Diagnostic Monitoring Best Practices

Are there any general best practices for Azure Diagnostics?
Does enabling all diagnostic monitoring and performance counters have an impact on the performance of the application?
Does the sample rate on the performance counter have an impact on the performance?
Does the transfer period have an impact on performance?
Does the buffer size have an impact on performance, or is it just a matter of how much data you want to retain and store?
I am looking for a good trade off where diagnostic monitoring does not impact performance while also logging as much information as possible.

Application preferences system - best practice

Hi,
I'm migrating a forms application from 6i to 11g
The application source forms are the same for all the possible deployments , which are set in different databases (let's say one database for each client).
But as you may expect, each client wants a customized app, so we have to define some kind of preferences, and have them into account in forms (and db packages).
The problem:
The application, as it was designed, has this customizing system spread over different solutions:
A database table with one row for each custom parameter.
A database package constants.
Forms global variables defined at the main menu.
Even, instead of defininig a good set of properties, I'm finding a lot of code with "if the client is one of this then ... else ..." sentences. Sometimes implemented with instr and global variables defining groups of clients ... bufff....
The question:
I'd like to take advance of the migration process to fix this a little bit. Can you give advice on a best practice for this?

Thanks. I was hoping there would be something better than both approaches (package constants or parameter table) bundled within the database.
Of course the
if customer name = 'COMPANY_A' then use this logic ...
gives the creeps to anyone.
Instead of this everything should be
if logic_to_do_this = 'A' then ...
There are two minor problems with the table approach:
Single row and one column for each parameter? (thus you can control the parameter datatype, but need to ddl everytime you add a parameter.
or a parameter table with parameter name/value pairs? (here you'd have to go with varchar for everything, but you could have a set of pre-established conversion masks)
I prefer the second (you only need to establish masks for number and date parameters), but I'm a bit late, as the app has been working with a single row parameter table from the beginning, and they even didn't wrap it with a getter function.
In fact, in an old forms application I developed where customization was paramount, I remember I used two tables master / detail: the master table for the parameter "context" definition and the detail table for the values and dates of entry in force (the app worked 24x7 and users even needed to program changes in preferences in advance). A getter function gets you the value currently in force.

Grid Control and SOA suite monitoring best practice

Hi there,
I’m trying to monitor a SOA implementation on Grid Control.
Are there some best practices about it?
Thanks,
Nisti
Edited by: rnisti on 12-Nov-2009 9:34 AM

If they use it to access and monitor the database without making any other changes, then it should be fine. But if they start scheduling stuff like oradba mentioned above, then that is where they will clash.
You do not want a situation where different jobs are running on the same database from different setups by different team (cron, dbcontrol, dbms_job, grid control).
Just remember their will be aditional resource usage on the database/server to have both running and the Grid Control Repository cannot be in the same database as the db console repository.

Configuration settings for applications ... best practices?

Hi!
We're currently developing applications for WebLogic (ADF Faces RC, EAR deployment).
Now we arrived at a point where we need some simple configuration settings/properties on the server or the domain. The applications should be able to read these settings, the mechanism should be as simple as possible.
An administrator at the server should be able to update the settings and the applications should pick up the changed values the next time the settings are accessed, without server or application restart.
I wonder what the best way would be to handle this?
- put them into the database, but then all apps would need DB access to those settings?
- System env. variable on the server, but how to pick up changes without restart?
- Property file? Where do I put that so that an admin can easily find and edit it?
What are you guys using? I was kind of hoping that WebLogic would provide some UI in the console app, that enables an admin to set some properties, but I couldn't find one. Is there one?
Any advice?
Thanks.
Sascha

Hi Sascha,
If you place the properties files in %WEBLOGIC_HOME%/user_projects/domains/[your_domain] then the properties file should be picked up, without having to be placed in a jar file, and in a location that will be easy to find for the WebLogic administrator.
Hope it helps.

Cris

Queue monitoring, best practice

Hi,
          I have had a go at reading the Programming guides supplied on the website, however I still am unsure as to the best approach...
          Situation:
          Server1, Weblogic Server 8.1 with a JMS Queue.
          Server2, Tomcat 6.0.
          Server3, IIS with a Web Server.
          Server2 has a simple daemon process that is intended to monitor a JMS Queue from Server1 and forward (consume) any messages it recieves to Server3.
          The daemon is basically constructed as follows:
                    INIT:
           Initialise JNDI context
           Lookup TopicConnectionFactory
           Create TopicConnection
           Set connection client ID
           Create TopicSession
           Lookup Topic
           Create TopicSubscriber (DurableSubscriber)
           Start connection
          MAIN:
           Loop:
            recieve TextMessage from TopicSubscriber
            Forward consumed message to webservice
            goto Loop: // This is an endless loop
                              As you can see, I initalise all connection details once at the start and then I hope to use it forever.
          Should I be closing the session (or connection) after each consumed message?
          Will this be able to consume messages that are already in the Queue or will it only consume message that are published while it is connected?
          This all seems to work for a while, but I occasionally get the following exception (which is the reason why I'm asking the above questions):
          weblogic.jms.common.InvalidClientIDException: Client id, my_cid, is in use
               at weblogic.rjvm.BasicOutboundRequest.sendReceive(BasicOutboundRequest.java:108)
               at weblogic.rmi.internal.BasicRemoteRef.invoke(BasicRemoteRef.java:137)
               at weblogic.jms.dispatcher.DispatcherImpl_813_WLStub.dispatchSyncFuture(Unknown Source)
               at weblogic.jms.dispatcher.DispatcherWrapperState.dispatchSync(DispatcherWrapperState.java:345)
               at weblogic.jms.client.JMSConnection.setClientID(JMSConnection.java:513)
          which (i think) courses the following exception:
          weblogic.jms.common.JMSException: Connection clientID is null
               at weblogic.jms.client.JMSSession.createConsumer(JMSSession.java:1635)
               at weblogic.jms.client.JMSSession.createDurableSubscriber(JMSSession.java:1461)
               at weblogic.jms.client.JMSSession.createDurableSubscriber(JMSSession.java:1434)
          Thanks in advance for any and all responses to my questions.

-- Should I be closing the session (or connection) after each consumed message?
          No. Connection/session creation has a relatively high overhead.
          -- Will this be able to consume messages that are already in the Queue or will it only consume message that are published while it is connected?
          I assume your refering to topics (pub/sub), not queues. If you want to receive messages were sent while the subscriber was disconnected, then you need to use "durable subscriptions" - a basic standard concept in JMS. Furthermore, if you want the messages to survive even in the event of a server crash, the publisher must specify "PERSISENT" as the delivery mode.
          -- This all seems to work for a while, but I occasionally get the following exception (which is the reason why I'm asking the above questions):
          As part of standard JMS for "durable subscribers", clients must specify a unique client-id when creating a connection. They must also specify a subscriber-id when creating the subscriber. The "connection-id, subscriber-id" tuple uniquely identifies a durable topic subscription. If a connection using the specified connection-id already exists when creating a new connection, the new connection create will fail (must fail) with a duplicate client-id exception.
          I don't know what is causing the null-pointer-exception.
          Hope this helped,
          Tom

Availability Groups Best Practice

When setting up the underlying cluster portion in Windows is it best to use the Node & Disk Majority or Node & File Share?
John M. Couch

Hello,
It's best to use what you can use and are comfortable with. If your file share isn't highly redundant then there really is no different between using the two. If your file share is highly redundant you may get a more solid voting solution using the file
share.
Edit:
It also has different flexibilities. For example, if using AOAGs then clustered shared drives isn't needed - so you can actually get away with local storage on each node. Maybe you don't have a SAN or NAS that makes it possible to setup clustered storage
and must use a file share. It always depends.

What are Best Practice Recommendations for Java EE 7 Property File Configuration?

Where does application configuration belong in modern Java EE applications? What best practice(s) recommendations do people have?
By application configuration, I mean settings like connectivity settings to services on other boxes, including external ones (e.g. Twitter and our internal Cassandra servers...for things such as hostnames, credentials, retry attempts) as well as those relating business logic (things that one might be tempted to store as constants in classes, e.g. days for something to expire, etc).
Assumptions:
We are deploying to a Java EE 7 server (Wildfly 8.1) using a single EAR file, which contains multiple wars and one ejb-jar.
We will be deploying to a variety of environments: Unit testing, local dev installs, cloud based infrastructure for UAT, Stress testing and Production environments. **Many of our properties will vary with each of these environments.**
We are not opposed to coupling property configuration to a DI framework if that is the best practice people recommend.
All of this is for new development, so we don't have to comply with legacy requirements or restrictions. We're very focused on the current, modern best practices.
Does configuration belong inside or outside of an EAR?
If outside of an EAR, where and how best to reliably access them?
If inside of an EAR we can store it anywhere in the classpath to ease access during execution. But we'd have to re-assemble (and maybe re-build) with each configuration change. And since we'll have multiple environments, we'd need a means to differentiate the files within the EAR. I see two options here:
Utilize expected file names (e.g. cassandra.properties) and then build multiple environment specific EARs (eg. appxyz-PROD.ear).
Build one EAR (eg. appxyz.ear) and put all of our various environment configuration files inside it, appending an environment variable to each config file name (eg cassandra-PROD.properties). And of course adding an environment variable (to the vm or otherwise), so that the code will know which file to pickup.
What are the best practices people can recommend for solving this common challenge?
Thanks.

HI Bob,
As sometimes when you create a model using a local wsdl file then instead of refering to URL mentioned in wsdl file it refers to say, "C:\temp" folder from where you picked up that file. you can check target address of logical port. Due to this when you deploy application on server it try to search it in "c:\temp" path instead of it path specified at soap:address location in wsdl file.
Best way is re-import your Adaptive Web Services model using the URL specified in wsdl file as soap:address location.
like http://<IP>:<PORT>/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel<xirequest>
or you can ask you XI developer to give url for webservice and username password of server

Layer7 application URL monitoring - SCOM 2007R2 possible?

Hello helpers,
I have a request to monitor Layer7 application URLs using SCOM 2007 R2.
Have been working on this case past 6 months, but I am unable to resolve it because health state of the URL monitors are not changing.
URL example: http://ABCDEF.ZYX.HIJKLM.com:8080/ssg/ping
The page just says "OK" and HTTP status code is 200.
Even though we have configured with content text which is not present in the page content, there is no state change happening.
Appreciate your answers on this.
Thanks in Advance,
Dheeraj B.

Hi,
It seems like that you are using web application availability monitoring template to monior URLs. If you want to get state changing when specific criteria is met, make sure you configured it correctly.
In addition, the article below should be helpful for you, please check it:
