Database monitoring and report

Hi all, I'd like to start monitoring the customer's database.
I need a tool to monitor database's performances and I also need to run day by day a series of queries that produce control reports.
I'd like the tool alerts me by email if something goes wrong.
Does anyone could indicate me tools that work in this way? Any suggestions?
TIA.

DBConsole comes with Oracle DB. Though some reports (AWR) should be licensed separately.
GridControl installed and licensed separately.
You can take a look at Nagios that is a generic monitoring framework (free).
You can find in Net several plugins for Oracle for it.
Also you can write your own script/plugin using Shell or C or Perl or whatever language that can produce a standard output and exit number.

Application doesn't work after build (database toolkit and report gen toolkit).

I wrote an application using database toolkit and report gen toolkit to retrieve some data from a database, put into a Word doc, save the Word doc and print it. It works fine when I run the vi, but when I build and run it, it does nothing. I have tried all of the settings in Projec Manager that I think might help but it still won't work right. Labview 8.2.1, XP.
Thanks,
Charlie
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the help. I finally abondened the Word append table and used the regular report gen append table and got it to work fine. The error was 214682314. That led me to the thread about column numbers must vbe between 1 and 63, but like I said, my coulumn number is 7 so don't know what is going on. Anyway I got the vi to work and do what I want so I guess now the problem is solved (moot).

Cisco Secure ACS 5.4/Monitoring and Report Viewer - SNMP Settings

Hello Everyone.
I hope this is the right forum for my question.
We just purchased 8 1121 ACS 5.4 appliances. I have some familiarity with the older 1113 and 1120 appliances running ACS 4.2. So I have a lot to learn.
Right now I'm trying to understand the Monitoring and Report Viewer System Configuration. I set the SNMP V2 read comm. string to the same string I configured from the CLI.
etc-labacsb1-1/admin# show runn | inc snmp
snmp-server contact "ACS1121;XXXXX"
snmp-server location "B1 Lab"
snmp-server community XXXXXX ro
1) It was not the same string as configured on CLI. Does setting this give me access to query more than system type or server type MIB objects.
2) Can you provide an example? (for example to query a switch - snmpwalk -v 1 -c XXXXXX hostname 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.43)
3) What is the MIB object tree OID (1.3.6.1.4.1.9.???) for these ACS appliances?
Thanks in advance.

that's correct. here is what we have in ACS 5.4 for snmp.
ACS 5.4 supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to provide logging services. The SNMP agent provides read-only SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c support. The supported MIBs include:
•SNMPv2-MIB
•RFC1213-MIB (MIB II)
•IF-MIB
•IP-MIB
•TCP-MIB
•UDP-MIB
•CISCO-CDP-MIB
•ENTITY-MIB

Visit this forum often to view responses to your questions and the questions of other community members.

Very good questions. Let me try and take them one at a time. Some of the answers you will likely find in the CM GUI help (upper-left corner is the Help button), or in the online documentation. But let's add a little more color and detail.
1)When we pull bandwidth Optimization report, on Y-Axis the graphs says Effective Capacity .What is Effective Capacity?
Basically, the "effective increased bandwidth capacity" is telling you how much additional WAN bandwidth you've gained because of the optimization. It will chart somewhere between 1 times and 100 times. Typically it charts all traffic, though you can configure it to chart traffic for specific Applications.
The CDM online help gives the formulas used to chart the graph:
Effective WAN Capacity = 1 / (1-% Reduction Excluding Pass-Through)
% Reduction Excluding Pass-Through = (Original Excluding Pass-Through - Optimized) / (Original Excluding Pass-Through)
2)what is reduction % excluding and including passthrough
Looking at the formulas given above might help you understand. The one is a reduction ratio compared to only the original traffic that is optimized. The other is a reduction ratio compared to all original traffic, whether it is optimized or not. So, if you want to know what kind of optimization you are getting for the traffic that you configured to have optimized, look at the "excluding pass-through" numbers. If you want to know the positive effect that optimization is having on your full traffic load, take a look at the "including pass-through" numbers.
3)What is effectivity capacity including and excluding passthrough ?
The effective capacity is what kind of throughput you can potentially realize on the WAN -- assuming you would fill it to 100% capacity -- because of the level of optimization you are seeing. The "including" numbers show you the effect of optimization compared to all the traffic passing through the WAE whether it is optimized or not. The "excluding" numbers show the effect of optimization compared only to the traffic that is receiving optimizations.
4)With the help of which report, we can show the customer that the file download which took 10 mins in first attempt, is downloaded in 10secons in next attempt?
This one is a little trickier. The reports are much broader than a single connection. They are for all traffic, or for traffic that matches specific defined Applications. You could create a separate Application and matching classifiers for the client and/or server IP addresses and/or ports, run the test, then configure the charts to only show you the data for that Application. By default, statistics for an Application aren’t charted unless you check the "Enable Statistics" box when defining/editing the Application.
5)How to show that the bandwidth utilization has decreased by which %.
You want to look at the % reduction numbers you asked about in #2 above.
6)Which report says that the applications have become this much time faster?
These questions are normally put forwarded by many customers ? Can you please help me with your expertise answer ?
This is probably the hardest question to answer.
"Faster" isn't always easy to define. You are probably talking about user experience rather than statistics found in a network device. What determines that experience? A web page fully populating with all the pictures? A CIFS-based application that saves a file? A custom application that collects data from different servers over different protocols to perform some operation? Much of that is subjective and based on multiple individual requests, sometimes over different protocols.
What we can provide are statistics to show the effect of WAN optimization and application acceleration for specific types of traffic. We can't show you that displaying a web page is N times faster with WAAS, because we don't know which of all the many HTTP requests that are made are specific to the user experience. But we can show that each of the requests received so much overall optimization, so much optimization from DRE, so much optimization from LZ, so much added benefit from HTTP acceleration.
What you would probably do is collect some base-line timings for performing certain user activities, then perform the same operations both cold (first pass) and warm (subsequent passes). Back up those timing numbers with reports from the CM GUI, and perhaps even the "show statistics connection connection-id ". Which reports to use? Start with those Optimization and Acceleration reports. Those are the reports we expect will give the most complete/accurate pictures of the benefit of WAAS. You can also create and even schedule custom reports as needed.

Advanced monitoring and report feature on ACS5.1

Hi !
I would like to know where I can find documentation about the "Advanced Monitoring and Report" feature on ACS server version 5.1.0.44-3. I would like find information about the installation, benefit of this feature, and how to use advanced monitoring and report feature.

In ACS 5.0 there was a separate licensed feature that enabled additional monitoring and troubleshooting features such as alarms, thresholds and additonal reports. In ACS 5.1 this functionality is included by default as part of the base product

Cisco ACS 5.2 (esx 4 vm) and Monitoring and Reports failure

I am evaling the Cisco ACS 5.2 Virtual Appliance on ESX4 and everything is working fine except for the "Monitoring and Reports" no matter what browser I try, it just keeps loading new tabs of the welcome screen, in the case of some browser versions it does this and does not stop.
I have tried the following browsers on Win7 Pro: IE 8, Firefox 4, Firefox 3, Chrome 12.
I have tried the following browsers on MacOS 10.6: FireFox 4, Safari 5.0.5
In Safari 5.0.5 it calls up one new window, but doesn't load anything in the right hand frame.
This is a fresh install, with an eval license. I am rather annoyed that it doesn't work out of the box, especially when there was not documentation that mentioned that anything needed to be setup for this to work after initial install, unless I missed something.
I installed the VM with the base 5.0.26 ISO and then applied patches 5.0.26-1 through 5.0.26-5.
Can anyone provide any help on this?

Database monitoring and control i

Hi all,
I am looking for various options to monitor and control the database.
Could you provide your thoughts on this.

You will get more, faster and better responses to your questions when you learn that your questions should contain as much information about your interests as you can provide.
What you asked about database monitoring is pretty close to posting only question mark in you post. Like this : *?*
When you are going to car mechanic to ask him for advice about your car, you will not just tell him : I am looking for thoughts on achiving higher HP for my car,tell me ,how to do that? .
You will obviusly tell him at least what car you have, what model, what year was made and so on. You can apply almost the same logic when asking oracle questions here.
For zilion reasons , providing at least information about database release you are using is a 'must do' when asking a question.
Also, your first stop when looking for info about something that is so general as your question here suggests, should be http://tahiti.oracle.com/ , where you could eventually, as in this case , after few more clicks lead yourself to this, and after that enable yourself to ask more specific and concrete question.
By the way, your forum activity statistics are saying that you are one of those posters which is appearing here with the moto 'ask question-respond never' , and this attitude can discourage many forum members to help you because they prefer two-way communication, which you obviusly don't.

Exe build with database conn and report generation vi's?

I tried to build an .exe and learned the hard way that there are many things needed to be included for this to work. As is now my program is not working.
I wanted to get a list of necessary steps to make a successful build. Please correct me if I am wrong or missing anything:
1. For the report generation toolkit I must include a few support files (_exclsub.llb and _wordsub.llb)
2. For the database connectivity: I must follow NI's User guide by implementing the toolset build script function? Is there an easier way?
If there are any simpler ways to get this working please let me know.
Dev machine=vista LV2010 office 2007
Target machine=XP office 2007
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the response,
Yes I have the runtime installed. I also got the program working correctly by doing the following:
LV 8.6 and greater-->
1. added two folders to the project from the project explorer menu.
      a. Utilities folder
      b. LVClass folder
2. during the .exe build I had to:
      a. add LVClass folder to always include in source file settings
      b. browse in the Utilities folder to NIReportLLB folder and add that to always include as mentioned above (note: if you add the whole utilities folder you will get a broken vi error when building it, even if you fix the vi it still didn't work properly for me so I just included the folder I needed for word/excel)
took about a day to troubleshoot and fix but the program is working as expected. Hope this helps someone else in the future.

Cisco ISE 1.2 monitoring and Reporting

Hi Ali
We're trying to determine how many addtional Base licenses we have to purchase in order to be compliant in our Cisco ISE 1.2 platforms (already have 1500 CISE 1.2 Base licenses in production).
Is there any means to monitoring (e.g SNMP polling) and get scheduled reports showing the numbers of used licenses for a period ?
looking forward to heard you back

Monitoring and Reporting with JMX?

We need a good way to monitor JMX objects. From A Network Operations type perspective. Goal being to work with our dev team to dial down values associated with escalations to fix production issues. Currently our plan is to upgrade to sitescope 8.6 (with JMX Support). This option will cost us alot of money. Enough that we are researching other options.
What is the best way to monitor JMX objects with alerts being sent? Are there any options outside sitescope that are reliable and scaleable? Is there a way for JMX events to write to the event log on a W2K3 server, or are there any custom connector services into MOM (microsoft Operations Manager <didn't think so...>) . Please let me know any recommendations you might have. right now our only way is cutom developer work or sitescope.....
Thank You in advance.

anyone?
