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?

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.

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.
Ray Westphal
EHI

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

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?

Deploy Forms and Reports with Load Balancing

I am trying to determine what we need to install here. I have read OracleAS, Web Cache, Application Server, and
Forms documents and have no answer still.
We are currently run 9iAS with Forms and Reports 6i only.
I did not do any of those installs. We are migrating to
Forms and Reports 10g. I need to setup an OracleAS 10g
Forms and Reports application server with the ability to
do Load Balancing over 2 windows Web servers to handle
4,000+ users. The application database will be on its own
Windows server.
Do I need to install the Infastructure, BI, and Web cache?
Or just Oracle 10g Application Server option? Or other?
Do I need to install it on both web servers and do
something like clustering? Do I need to install Web
cache? I just took the 10g AS class and basically did not learn anything about deploying Forms and Reports.
Can anyone give me a place to find the things I need to
install and setup?
Thanks.
Kim

I am a DBA and have not done an iAS or AS installation
before but am now required to learn it. We will be using
SSL and no load balancing hardware. We setup for other
customer sites and setting Windows servers in the past.
We have not done load balancing before.
I am just confused with all the 10gAS options there are to
install to just run 10g Forms and Reports and setup
OracleAS 10g with the load balancing features.
So I just need to install OracleAS Forms and Reports
Server if I am just installing Forms and Reports with SSL.
But if for Load Balancing Oracle 10g I need to cluster
just Reports 10g? I thought I would need OracleAS10g
installed on my two Windows servers and somehow cluster
or let the two know they are the same web page handling
the incoming requests? I do know about Apache redirct. Is
that an Apache feature and is it covered in an Oracle
documentation? They did not cover it in class either.

Home Monitoring and Control with a third party also monitoring and controlling?

I was wondering if anyone has tried to install Home Monitoring and Control with a third party monitoring, and or controlling the same devices. I know many systems offer multiple control points such as auxilary control touch screens. Has anyone made this work? I have Z wave devices on my home security system (lighting), and would also like to monitor them via Verizon. Possibly also adding some energy monitoring and control, that is not available via my security company. My security monitoring company provide support through Alarm.com, but has limited energy monitoring to thermostat control and such.
The only interactive control with my security company is for alarm monitoring and control, with limited lighting control. All of my devices are GE in the wall mounted lighting controls, and I would prefer to pay Verizon the few extra dollars for the additional features VIA the web, rather than pay Verizon. There used to be an energy package, that included the main power panel load and I thing Thermostat, but I believe some of the bundles have been split up.
There are other options out there now, but I have neen exploring. My GE Switches are from the Lowes Iris system. Much less expensive, and can replace existing wall switches, not like the power cord switches. Plus the store is four miles from my house.

I started with Verizon home monitoring, but if you read through the threads the service is extremely unreliable, still to this day. I am stillusing it, although I am waiting for a refund on the services that I have used since it is so bad but I bought a MiCasaVerde Vera3 system. You pay appoximately $300 for the unit and there is no monthly charge and you get all the features plus pretty much unlimited types of z wave devices to use on it. I would seriously consider using that before Verizon.

Customizing the Monitoring and Report Viewer - ACS 5.2

Is there a way to modify the columns shown in the monitoring and reporting viewer so that I can see all of the relevant columns in one screen, similar to the ACS 4.x view? I would like to view things at a glance, rather than having to click into each item. Thank you for your help in advance.

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

You can find the name of the standalone reports server in $ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/ReportsServerComponent.
Or you can use Fusion Middleware Control Console, normally at http://<machine name>:7001/em

Salesforce issue- Accessing Objects and Reports with 2 master-details

I'm using Crystal Reports XI r2 with the Salesforce data connector installed, and I know the same issue exists in CR 2008 as well. With version of the Salesforce API that the Crystal - Salesforce connector is using, objects that have 2 master-detail relationships are not available to add to reports. Even if I create a stanard Salesforce report with an object with 2 master-details, that report isn't available in the "Stored Procedures" of Salesforce in Crystal. The API is about 3 years out of date, any word on when a new version will be available? This is a big limitation.

Try SP3 for CR 2008. Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly:
