Configuring 6 Monitors

On a fresh install of ArchLinux trying to configure my displays. Basically, 3 monitors are running as clones at the moment. The other three are clones of each other too but they are not really accessible or usable. But I can see the wallpaper. Here is a bit more information:

My cards can support up to 8 monitors, but I only have 6 connected. xrandr shows 7 displays... Leaving my confused because it's neither 6 or 8... I don't know how to make them connected so I can configure them. I did manage to get 3 of the monitors working properly together albeit laggy using KDE's display settings... but those settings also displayed these other 3 monitors as disconnected and unconfigurable.

Hi all,
im trying to configure Monitoring report,but stuck at the part where i should associate Monitoring report With a Mirror database.
I have used this guide :
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj945624.aspx
Im now at the part where i click on CDRDB,but when i click on it i only see XML view and dont have the "GUI" Interface to add Connection string.
My account has Admin rights for SQL database and also member of RTC Admin Group.
Why can i not see it in edit mode,which permission am i missing?
Thanks!

Ok,so i figured it out and the reason was because i used wrong url.
correct one should be http://localhost/Reports_RTC and NOT
http://localhost/Reportserver_RTC

API's to configure monitoring in ALSB

Greetings
I was wondering if there is a way one could build an external application which could configure monitoring rules for proxy services in ALSB 2.5.
Thanks
Ananth

The reason why the need for external configuration of certain parameters (like logging config) arises is when an enterprise has 100's of proxy services and ALL of them adhere to a standard policy.
I understand that none of the ESB's support MASS UPDATE of policy. But is there any API to access and update the configuration?
Thanks

Grid Control Configure Monitor Username

Hi,
I dropped the standby and recreated it. Now i'm trying to add this to the OMS for monitoring. Host is success but when i try to add the standby database to OMS, the Monitor Username parameter is defaulting to dbsnmp and not allowing me change to sys so the sysdba can monitor the standby. How to change the deafult username parameter from 'dbsnmp' to 'sys'? I even tried to edit the targets.xml file on agent but everythin defaults when the agent is recycled? I can't give the 'dbsnmp' sysdba privileges since the database is in standby mode-mounted only.
Thanks,
Ash

To monitor a target as sysdba do this:
Go to targets and then select the databases tab and select your database (just put the green dot next to it, don't click on the database name link). At the the top/bottom of the targets page, hit the configure button.
In this page, hit the drop down box first and select 'AS SYSDBA'
Now you can edit the username.

Unable to configure monitor & report in Lync 2013

We have SQL Server 2012 in our environment. I want to enable monitor report in Lync 2013. i have separate Lync sql instance.
I am trying to configure new database in Reporting Service Configuration manager in report Server database Configuration wizard.
while testing connection getting below error.
could not connect to server:A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to

kindly help to resolve issue.

In my opinion, if you have problem with your firewall, try disabling it and connect. If it doesn't work, means it could be your SQL configuration / enabling of TCP/IP problem.
Check the below blog:

If you are able to connect to SQL Server by physically logging on to the server, but unable to connect from a client computer then execute the below to check the SPN.
-- run this command to see if SPN is not found
EXEC xp_readerrorlog 0,1,"could not register the Service Principal Name",Null
If the SPN is not found setup and register an SPN. (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191153(v=sql.110).aspx#Manual)

Hi
I have a workgroup server that is not part of my local domain.
I have contented the server to my local SCOM 2012 R2 server and it is working fine.
My SCOM server has MSMQ 6.0 & 6.3 MP's installed.
On the remote servers I have some MSMQ 6.0 private queues.
When I am trying to monitor one counter in 1 queue , when the threshold is reached I am getting error message on al the queues.
On the performance counter tab I have :

Forms Configuration Monitoring

Using OAS 9.0.4.2 Forms/Reports. I notice with EM I can now view user session information for active Forms sessions. Is a history of this information kept in a logfile somewhere or can I enable it to log somewhere? I would like to analyze specifically what form configurations are being used and how often. None of the OC4J_BI_Forms logs contain the information and I used LogLoader to search for some form configuration names and didn't have any hits.

Those em_xxxxx.rti files are created when em_mode=1 & there should be one for every connected session.
It seems like some get left behind when there are crashes or abnormal disconnections, but that his a hypothesis about why they get left behind. I'm not certain.
When a user logs out of the application, the rti file is deleted. You could get a pretty good sampling of data by writing a script that parses this using grep & writes the data to a log file. You could run it as a cron job to collect the data regularly, but it is possible that users are logged on for less than a minute & you don't collect the info from the file before it is deleted.
I have a simple script that reads thorugh the rti files and shows who the connected users are. See example. Not helpful for your situation, but may be helpful for you in creating your own script.
Cordially,
Steve
NUM_USERS=0
DATE_STARTED=`date`
echo ""
echo "MAXe user sessions as of "$DATE_STARTED" on `hostname`"
echo ""
for MAXE_USER in `ps -A | grep frmweb | cut -c0-6 | sed 's/ //'`
do
echo $MAXE_USER
let "NUM_USERS = $NUM_USERS + 1"
EM_FILE="$ORACLE_HOME"/forms/em/em_"$MAXE_USER".rti
cat $EM_FILE | grep -v "listener = " | grep -v "config = "
echo ""

How to configure 2 external monitors with X1 Carbon

I have a brand new X1 Carbon (Generation 1 3444-CYU), and I also have the docking station. My intention is to be able to have the laptop cover closed, and to use the power switch on the top of the docking station to start (apply power to) the laptop, and to have the output be driven to two DVI monitors.
At this point, I'm able to have the laptp drive the main screen (part of the laptop) and the two external monitors, but I cannot seem to figure out how to use the docking station to "start/boot" the PC, and to have the bootup sequence, and other subsequent display presented on the two DVI screens only.
As I've been looking through the knowledge base, I'm surprised that there are not simply a series of articles that describe the various options for configuring monitors, so I'm forced to post this request. Can someone help?
thanks

I see this is an old post, but I figured I'd respond in case someone else is having the same problem.
There is a setting in the BIOS where you can have the X1 power on automatically when you plug it into the dock. I believe the setting is called something to the affect of "Power On When Connected to A/C." This solves the problem you and describing and I have been using with successfully with a dual monitor set up.

CCMS Alert Monitor (edit monitor-configuration.xml. ?)

Hi Friends
I'm trying to change the default polling time for the CCMS Alert Monitor, 5 minutes instead of 30 minutes.
In http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/e5/5d1741b393f26fe10000000a1550b0/content.htm you can read:
Accuracy
The default polling period for the monitor is 30 minutes. If you want to have shorter polling periods, you can change them in the SAP NetWeaver Administrator as follows:
1. Choose Availability and Performance Management ® Resource Monitoring ® Java System Reports (alias: /nwa/java-sys-reports).
2. Select an arbitrary Number of errors entry in the monitoring tree of the Adapter Engine (leaf node).
3. Choose Configuration in the right-hand pane.
4. Choose Edit in the dialog box that appears.
5. Change the polling period to 5 minutes, for instance.
6. Choose Save and wait until saving is finished (be patient, since this may take a while).
7. Choose Configuration Management ® Infrastructure Management ® Java Configuration Browser.
8. Choose apps ® sap.com ® com.sap.aii.af.app ® Monitoring Configurator ® monitor-configuration.xml.
9. In the xml file, change the polled-by-template period to the same value as above, for example, 5 minutes.
10. Save the modified xml file.
11. Choose Operations Management ® Infrastructure Management ® Start & Stop ® Java EE Services to restart the Monitoring service to apply the changes.
But in step 9, the xml file I've found in my PI 7.1 (SP6) is this:
<monitor-configuration>
<monitor-semantics />
<monitor-tree />
</monitor-configuration>
Also, there is no way to modify that file, you can only display it or download it.
can anyone tell me how to edit the file.
regards
raja

Hi Raja,
This is the same as doing the following:
You can locate the monitor-configuration.xml file in the SDA com.sap.aii.af.app.sda (inside META-INF folder). You can find this SDA in the install directory of PI installation. In this XML file please locate and edit the following tag:
<template-info template-name="SAP_XIJ2EE_RCRDS">
                        <polled-by-template period="30" unit="MINUTE">
                            <generating-resource
                                name="com.sap.aii.utilxi.rtcheck.mx.standard.XIJ2EEComponentMBean" type="APPLICATION"/>
                            <template-attribute-mapping>
                                <invoked-resource-method name="getMonitoringRecords"/>
                            </template-attribute-mapping>
                        </polled-by-template>
                    </template-info>
Change the above to the following *************
<template-info template-name="SAP_XIJ2EE_RCRDS">
                        <polled-by-template period="5" unit="MINUTE">
                            <generating-resource
                                name="com.sap.aii.utilxi.rtcheck.mx.standard.XIJ2EEComponentMBean" type="APPLICATION"/>
                            <template-attribute-mapping>
                                <invoked-resource-method name="getMonitoringRecords"/>
                            </template-attribute-mapping>
                        </polled-by-template>
                    </template-info>
The main change is the polled-by-template value from 30 mins to 5 mins as per your req ******
Construct back the SDA (you can search SDN for that) with this edited XML and then redeploy this SDA with the help of JSPM tool.
This will re-start the PI Server for the changes to come into effect.
I hope this helps.
PS: You can consult your BASIS consultant to locate this sda and re-deploy it on PI Server.

Monitoring Log in SharePoint Foundation 2010

Hello,
I´m using SharePoint Foundation 2010 and I want to configure Monitoring log, because we have had any problems because the user changed the permissions in other sites or deleted Users.
So I want to know who makes this action in Monitoring Log SharePoint 2010.

Business Process Monitoring - Dialog Performance Monitoring

Hello all,
I'm using BPM in order to monitor my project's most critical processes. In this part of the process we have some transactions that are executed online.
What is the best monitor to use in this case?
I'm using Other CCMS monitor, but the problem with that is that I have to create one monitor per application server.
I'm aware that I can use Dialog Performance itself, but the problem is that when I receive an e-mail notification there's no information regarding the transaction (is there any way to customize this e-mail?)
And also, I could use Application Monitor, but I really don't know the difference between them.
Thanks in advance and BR,
Lucas

Hello Lucas,
I thought I explained the difference between the two monitors in great lenght. Only the Application Monitor allows you to configure monitoring across all applications servers centrally in one step. But then you don't have the measurement per instance.
I don't understnad why you would like to have some information about users. You don't want to monitor single users do you? You measure averages across all users.
Theoretically we could develop something that would allow the one time configuration across all application instances and nevertheless you get all details for the individual instance. But this would be a customer-specific development as part of the MaxAttention contract.
Best Regards
Volker

Business Process Monitoring - Application Monitoring help.

Hi all,
Through Business Process Monitoring, I am trying to configure monitoring on table NAST, so that an alert will be generated for Billing documents print outputs (application=V3, transm. medium=1) on specific message types, if the processing status is equal to either 0 (not processed) or 2 (incorrectly processed).
I have configured this through application monitoring, using the 'Messages (Output Determination)' monitoring object. Under this, was able to configure the 2 key figures of "unprocessed messages" and "incorrectly processed messages" with the parameters mentioned above (application and message type).
I set the yellow alert threshold to 1, and the red alert threshold to 2, as I want to be notified each time a print output goes into status 0 or 2, and that a red alert be generated in the case where 2 or more print outputs are not successful.
However, upon activation of this monitoring, I came across the following issue: The table NAST already has over 40 historic entries of unprocessed and incorrectly processed messages for these message types. The monitoring is picking up all these entries right away, and therefore a red alert is being generated.
There does not appear to be a way to configure the monitoring to only look for new entries in the table matching the criteria, e.g. look for billing docs with status = incorrectly processed during the last 24 hours. It seems that unless the existing entries in the table NAST are either deleted or have their status changed to "processed", the monitoring will always pick up these entries and report a red alert, even if no new entries are discovered.
Does anyone know how a way of configuring a date range with this type of monitoring, or do I have to modify the existing entries in the table (either delete them, change their status or set the "disregard" indicator on the messages in the table) before this monitoring will work as I hoped it would?
Secondly - a more general point - although there are lots of good documents on configuring Business Process Monitoring, I have not yet found one which gives full details on all the different types of application monitoring available, and how each of them can be configured. I know that within Application Monitoring, when you choose a monitoring type, the grey box at the top half of the screen gives some good information on what the monitoring does and how to configure it, but a document which captures all these monitoring types in one place would be very useful - if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it!
Thanks in advance for any help with the first issue above,
Regards,
John

Hi John,
you get an overview about all available key figures in the PPT "Business Process & Interface Monitoring - Part 2" under https://service.sap.com/bpm --> Media Library --> Customer Information. It lists all Monitoring Object and Key Figures with Select-Options. There is no document that describes the setup of every key figure as the setup is too similar for most objects. Therefore the grey text boxes within the tool.
The NAST collector will always pick-up everything older than x days. So you would have to process or delete the olde entries. But it is a good advise that for this rather technical key figure we should think about a delta mechanism like with our IDOC or ABAP dump monitor.
Best Regards
Volker
