Need to automate BPM Server monitoring activity

Hi All,
In the weblogic domain, having admin server and four managed servers. The managed servers going in the warning state due to hogging threads. Is there any way to automate the activity by any means? Please let me know any further information required regarding this.
Awaiting responses.

ACE 4710 - need help configuring backend server monitoring

Currently running an ACE 4710, which is handling all of our inbound SSL connections and then forwarding requests thru
to backend web servers. This all works fine.
My question is this..Right now we are not load balancing any of the backen web servers. But I now have a requirement that should
a web server crash or become unavailable I need to redirect that backend connection to another web server.
Scenario is more like I have 2 web servers both serving same content, but I want one server to take all the connections unless it fails, at that point
have all the connections forwarded to 2nd server.
Is there a way to setup the load balancing where the 1st server gets all the connections until a failure happens ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Dave

Hi Dave,
You can use sorry-server or backup server feature. details can be found at

Need to automatically add newly created user account in an existing active directory group.

Hi All ,
In my environment we are having window server 2012 active directory environment.We need to have the newly created active directory user account to get added automatically to the existing active directory group after that new user account creation.
Please tell us the possible ways to achieve this scenario.
Regards
S.Nithyanandham
Thanks S.Nithyanandham

Hi,
Can you please confirm your requirement,
When you create a new user account in AD, based on the user's property like Department, Job or Location, the user need to be added to your specific AD groups?

Do Active Runbooks Restart Automatically on Server Reboot

We have been developing Runbooks in combination with our Service Manager implementation. We have a Runbook server that has 30 or so active Runbooks. We have yet to reboot the server since the automation was brought on-line (my fault).
We will need to patch the server at some point in the near future. So my question is, when the server is rebooted, do I have to manually restart all of the active jobs or do they restart themselves automatically. I don't have anyway to test this
since the system is operating in a production capacity and I don't want to cause service disruptions.

Hello,
if a Runbook Server is stopped the other(s) or the Runbook Server itself (if its the only and up again) will restart the active Runbooks from begining.

What is a "logged in user" on the "Active Sessions" report in CF8 Server Monitor?

I was looking at the Active Sessions Report (The Chart View) and saw I have more "logged in users" than "active sessions".
I had expected them to be nearly the same.    It's on our Intranet where I log users in (using cflogin and cfloginuser) at the begining of their session and users should be logged when the session ends.
I couldn't find a detailed explaination of what a "logged in user" means.   There is a chance that the same user is logged into a nested application as well as the Intranet, but I don't think that is what I'm seeing.
I also don't see a way to get a list of what CF is counting as a logged in user. I can only see a way to get the total count.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff

Thank you Michael for the reply, but I don't think that is the issue.
When a user opens their browser on the intranet, a session begins and they are logged in (using the cflogin and cfloginuser).    If they close their browser, the session should hang around for 20 min. (per the server setting).   I am assuming this is still considered an "Active Session" since I can see this behavior in the report.
At first, the Active Sessions and Logged In Users are exactly the same.   When the sessions start to time out, the active sessions are reduced, but the Logged In Users remain the same.    Then, after a while, they start to move together. So I have more Logged In Users than Active Sessions.
I left the Server Monitor open last night and for most of the night, I had 0 sessions, but 57 "logged in users".   This morning, as people opened their browsers, the Active Sessions and Logged In Users moved together.   The gap of 57 looks consistent.
It looks like people are remaining logged in after their session ended.
I am really looking for a detailed explaination of "active session" and/or "logged in user" as used in the server monitor. It would be really nice to find a way to list the details about each item counted in the "logged in user" and not just the total count.
Thanks Again for your reply.

I need a request code for offline activation. Because i cannot connect with adobe server for online activation. But I receive "The request code is invalid." by generate answer code.

I need a request code for offline activation. Because i cannot connect with adobe server for online activation. But I receive "The request code is invalid." by generate answer code.

Dear Anubha,
I hope these windows illustrate what I am facing.
The above window shows the prompt that the software requires activation.
The version is 8.1.0.
This next window is the point where I select activation by phone.
This final window shows that the "response code" is not returned. I get an
"Activation Number" instead.

CF8 cfthread, server monitor, and active threads

When I run this code:
cfthread
part III or any cfthread without a thread join and then go to
the CF Administrator -> Server Monitor -> Statistics ->
Active ColdFusion Threads, I don't see the threads ever going away.
They just build and build everytime I run it. I can get it to
go all the way up to 400+ threads and stay there untill I restart
Jrun. I think this is a monitor issue because I'd hate to think
those threads are tied up and still active.
Thoughts?

Neo,
I have noticed the same thing. Now for the odd part. If you
click the 'start monitoring' button and then run your thread test,
the threads don't appear in the Active Coldfusion Thread report!
When running our application, I noticed the Coldfusion thread
count getting up to 80,000+ threads in the span of a couple of
hours. If we can't figure out what is causing this, we are going to
downgrade back to CF7

Queries on Business Process Monitoring (BPM) & Interface Monitoring

Dear all,
I have got a few queries on the subject and would greatly appreciate any valuable inputs.
Before I proceed, want to clarify that I have downloaded all overtly available documents (PDFs, SIMs) from the following URLs:
http://service.sap.com/rkt-solman
http://service.sap.com/solutionmanager Media Library
http://service.sap.com/bpm Media Library
I may not have read them all though since I come from a Functional angle.
Kindly reply to whatever query you can please. Not all of them are sequential.
Queries:
(1) How are Interfaces with External Systems (beyond the firewall of the enterprise) monitored ?
(2) Is it really worth listing all such External Systems as Logical Components in their own right ? I guess this makes sense if at a Process Step level, one wants to list a 'specific' Logical Component involved instead of 'generic' term like External System. However, it would benefit only if Interface Monitoring is feasible; isn't it ?
(3) There are Interfaces which are built between SAP and External System and serve various Business Processes under various Business Scenarios. In such circumstances, it is not easy to list which Process 'owns' the Interface. Therefore, under a normal Implementation Project structure (SOLAR02), choosing a particular Process Step, getting into 'Development' Tab and listing the Interface Program name may not be feasible, since there is no particular place where it belongs.
Is it therefore a good idea to create namesake Scenario for capturing all interfaces and list a library of all interfaces and store documents right there ? If so, will these namesake processes be of any use in BPM at a later date ?
(4) If my primary objective is to accomplish Interface Monitoring and not Business Process Monitoring per se, is it a good idea to create a new Solution Landscape, and manually create Business Processes that are suited to list Interfaces than to assign Template or Implementation Project to the Solution Landscape, and inherit those Processes ?
(5) What is it that a SAP Competence (Support) Centre will find as a 'major' gain in activating BPM to monitor Interfaces alone - is there something that SolMan's BPM based Interface Monitoring gives more than what PI level reporting may provide them with ?
(6) In Interfaces with Non-SAP Systems (some of them are old/ proprietary legacy systems with Credit Card companies; some of them are like 'Active Directory' servers), is it possible to define Metrics for BPM that such systems will contribute to SolMan, for reporting purposes ? Or, is it too much to hope for
Thanks again, for your patience and advance thanks for your kind responses.

Hi,
Welcome to BPM
You have asked too many questions in a single Post, Please read rules of engagement before posting
You can monitor the following without any trouble.
● ALE/EDI
● qRFC
1) Its obvious, if your firewall blocks all your request to external enterprise, it is not possible to monitor.
3) These interfaces are not the one related to development tab in SOLAR02, you have to map them from BPM.
4) Yes, you don't have to depend on any project for your processes, you can add it in your Solution Landscape.
5) Post a Separate Thread!!!
6) Post a Separate Thread!!!
Hope this gives a better idea.

BPM process interactive activity(JSP) - external webservice method interac

I am using Oracle BPM studio 10.3.1.0.
I have one external web service published on glassfish application server, I have introspected it in my BPM process using its WSDL.
Now one of my BPM process interactive activity is there, which is represented by one JSP, I am giving some input to my JSP.
I want this input to be passed to the web service method as a parameter, and it should fetch the output, so basically I want to invoke the web service method, could you please guide me how to do it?
Thanks & Regards
Ashish

Hy Ashih
I dont know if this is best way to do that, but I have a similar situation here, and I'm using AJAX do call the webservice method by BPM and retrieve data.
Something like this:
1 - Create the XMLHttpRequest() object in your jsp (if you need I have the entire code)
2 - Create the a JavaScript method for to call the OBPM method in your component
function mymethod(arg1, arg2, arg3)
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
                                                  if( xmlhttp.readyState==4 )
                                                       document.getElementById("AnyDIV").innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
     var resp = "<f:invokeUrl var='YourComponenteName' methodName='YourMethodName'/>";
//Incude how many args your need here
     resp+="&arg1=" + arg1;
     resp+="&arg2=" + arg2;
     resp+="&arg3=" + arg3;
     xmlhttp.open("POST",resp,true);
     xmlhttp.send(null);
3 - You'll need a div html tag called "AnyDIV" to receive the BPM answer
4 - On you BPM component, in YourMethodName method (needs to be ServerSide = no), create two args, the first is httpRequest type (name request), and the second is httpResponse type (name response) (fuego lib)
5 - Type the code below in your BPM method to send info back to the JSP
//getting the args
String arg1 = request.getParameter(string : "arg1");
String arg2 = request.getParameter(string : "arg2");
String arg3     = request.getParameter(string : "arg3");
//Do the webservice call here, prepare the html answer and put it into an string variable
strReturn = "bla bla bla";
//Send the anwser back to the jsp
response.bodyTextContent(arg1 : strReturn);
Or you can do this using xml answer and deal with the tags with javascript
that's it

CAD Server Monitoring?

I am using CAD 9 with UCCE 9.
I am trying to figure out how to configure CAD Server Monitoring - Cannot use Desktop Monitoring as Clients PCs are old and NIC cards are not supported, even the IP Phones are ols and do not have BIB.
So SPAN is the only option. I need some guidance - even a document URK will do. I have read 'CTI OS System Manager Guide' and also 'CAD Install Guide' but none explains the config. I am confused about below the point:
- SPAN source are the phones - what is the destination - the supervisor PCs or the CAD Server? If the PCs, then do we need a SPAN for each supervisor PC or what?
If SPAN destination is the server, then how will the supervisors get the RTP stream from CAD to their PC - automatically or do we have to configure something specific?
Also, on the CAD Desktop Admin webpage - VoIP Monitoring Service - (see screenshot) do I select Default Monitor Service and Disable Desktop monitoring OR I can leave Desktop Service Enabled and it will not conflict with Server Monitoring.
And if SPAN destination is CAD server - I am planning to add a 3rd NIC card for this, but where do I select the NIC card for receiving/ reading these SPANNed packets?
Please Assist.
Thanks,
Kartik

Intel Xserve not contactable via Server Monitor

I simply cannot get our new Intel Xserve to show up in Server Monitor. The app just sits there saying "waiting for a response". Our old G5 Xserve shows up, in 10.4 Server Admin and 10.5 Server admin, on either box. Apart from this, the server is functioning normally, no errors, Open Directory, Home Directories, Apache etc. But it's really annoying as in their current environment I need to keep an eye on the core temp etc. Can anyone suggest a way to find out what is wrong?
Thanks for your time - it's much appreciated.

Connect onto the Xserve box (on the console or ARD or such) and follow the instructions to set up the LOM port with a unique IP address, and ensure you're on the same LAN and subnet as the LOM port.
[Here's the basic LOM configuration sequence|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2773].
The initial configuration is (often) via Server Monitor invoked directly on the local box and connected directly to the local host.
Use a unique IP for the LOM on each NIC it is active on.
And remember to power-cycle (and unplug) the box when you make significant changes to the LOM.
It's possible to do this via ipmitool if you don't have graphics console access to the box, but (for the sake of brevity) that access is being assumed here.

HOW TO: Relay/Send email from websites, Server Monitor in OS 10.5 Server

If you don't want to run your own mail server or configure DNS on your Xserve, but you still want your website or applications like Server Monitor to send email notifications; this is what you need to do:
Scenario: Mac OS 10.5.2 Leopard - Advanced Configuration - Setup is for strictly sending emails through SMTP, routed through your ISP or another provider. This is not for receiving emails.
-Open up Server Admin
If you have yet to add in a server to admin, you need to do so. Resource PDFs on setting up OS X Server are available at Apple http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/ and there are video tutorials at http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=373
-Click on your server, then choose the Settings button
-Then choose Services from the Tabs/Buttons below
-Select the Mail checkbox and then hit Save
-Now choose the newly added Mail service in the left pane, then click the Settings button up top
-Start with the Advanced tab. Under Security, un-check everything and don't use SSL unless you want to. You don't need to mess with the other sub-tabs here.
-Next choose the Logging Tab. Under SMTP log level, choose debug so you will be able to see what goes on in the log.
-Mailing List, Quotas and Filters tabs can go untouched. You can mess with them later if you want.
-Click the Relay tab. It is a good idea to only accept relays from your local machine. If you uncheck this, I believe it leaves you with an open relay that anybody can access.
-Now for the General Tab. Under Domain Name put anything you want. Any made up name and extension is fine.
Under Host Name, again put anything you want.
Un-check Enable POP, Un-check Enable IMAP - Basically un-check everything
Check or leave checked Enable SMTP
Now check Relay outgoing mail through host:
Then enter your hosts SMTP server. ex. smtpout.secureserver.net
Now check Authenticate to relay with user name: and enter your username and password
-Now hit the Save button
-Now we need to take a look at the main.cf file and add a few things
-If you aren't showing all files in Finder already, open up Terminal.app
Now type in: defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles True
Hit enter
Now type in: killall Finder
Now Finder should reset and all files should be visible - To hide all files, do the same thing but type False
-Now open Macintosh HD and navigate to /private/etc/postfix/main.cf (Note: you won't be able to open and edit this in TextEdit. I recommend a program like TextWrangler http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/download.shtml )
-Once you have main.cf open, all your settings should be together at the bottom of the doc. Scroll down. You will need to add in a few lines and verify all the settings are exactly as below (except of course your own names and SMTP server):
readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix
mydomain_fallback = anything.anyting
messagesizelimit = 0
myhostname = anything.anything
mailbox_transport = cyrus
mydomain = anything.anything
mailboxsizelimit = 0
enableserveroptions = yes
inet_interfaces = all
relayhost = smtpout.secureserver.net
smtpsasl_passwordmaps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd
smtpsasl_authenable = yes
smtpdsasl_authenable = no
smtpsasl_securityoptions =
smtpduse_pwserver = no
smtpdrecipientrestrictions = permitmynetworks,reject_unauthdestination,permit
smtpdpw_server_securityoptions = none
-Now save the main.cf document
-Now go back to Macintosh HD and navigate to /private/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd
Open passwd with TextWrangler or you editing app, and verify that your SMTP server, username and password are correct. It should look something like this:
smtpout.secureserver.net [email protected]:password
-This should be what you entered in Server Admin when you first started. If all is well, quit your editing app.
-Now, while you are still at /private/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd you need to edit permissions for passwd
You can chmod in Terminal.app or secondary click on passwd and "Get Info"
Click the lock and enter your password to unlock the settings
Next click the + button and add yourself and Admin
-Now you can close out of everything and go back to Server Admin
-Hit the Reload (twisty arrow) button at the bottom and once everything is reloaded, hit Start Mail
-Now type localhost in your browser to see if your website can send email. You can also open up other apps such as Server Monitor and do something to change the status to have it send an email.
-You can click on Mail in the Server Admin and then view the SMTP log. As long as emails are being sent and then removed from the queue, you are in good shape. If you are getting an SASL error or mechanism error, open up main.cf and verify your settings and/or check permissions on passwd file

Don't you need the Mail service running to have apps like Server Monitor send email notifications? - Also for hosted sites that use the sendmail function you need a service running to get the emails sent.
Really you are not hosting a Mail server. It is open, but there is no incoming and if you only accept SMTP relays from the local machine, there should be no issues.

Server monitor not working (hardware monitor)

Just finnished installing my brand new maxed out Intel Xserves. And the Server monitor isn't working.
This thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=643361
Didn't solve my problem. hwmond is running on the Xserves but each server line just says "Waiting for response". My /System/Library/ServerSetup/SetupExtras file doesn't even HAVE a Disabled key. It has Label, OnDemand, Program, ProgramArguments and ServiceIPC keys, but no Disabled. And the hwmonds is running anyway.
I have opened server monitor on the xserve itself and tried to open it to itself with no luck. I have configured Lights out management by choosing Server->Configure local Machine and added another IP there with different login, but I can't connect to either IP. Firewalls are all turned off.
Running /System/Library/ServerSetup/SetupExtras/hwmondSetup just says "already loaded"
Server Admin works, I can log in and edit services. Workgroup manager also works.
When i run the hwmond as root on the server, it says "Failed to communicate with the front panel" which could be due to hwmond already running, but I can't turn off the process since launchd (?) launches it again.
When I choose "Configure local Machine" the password I entered is always blank, but maybe that's by design.
Since these servers aren't installed yet I have them in my office and their IP's are temporary, so I read this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106830
And it says that for this environment I should set the hostname to "localhost" in /etc/hostconfig. Done. Nothing changed.
I've googled this and searched here but found nothing. I'm running out of options... What should I do?

I set the server on a desk and do a fresh install off a DVD with the "erase HD" option. Then I install and configure the software I need (Software update, Sophos, power options, etc.) I did not configure LOM at that point, because I wasn't sure how to do it, and I needed to deploy the server. (luckily LOM was easy enough to set up after it was deployed.) Once the server is ready, I connect a FireWire HD to it, which has OS installed on it and boot from that.
That way my server is just an attached disk, and I use Disk Utility to create an image of it, which I then deploy on other servers.
I've had an issue with the G5 XServes where such a method required relatively simple modification before the server monitor would work:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301046
But, I've not had to do that with the Intel XServes.

Does the Server Monitor work on PowerPC based machine (w/o LOM)?

I tried using the Server Monitor locally on a PowerPC G4 machine which has 10.5.1 server installed. I always get a "Failed to connect to server" error message, except if I try 127.0.0.1 with the original local admin, then I would get a "User and or Password" error.
Strangely, the username of the admin is M999, but if i type in "M999" as username, I would still get a "Failed to connect to server" error, while if I use "m999" as username, I get a user name password error. Either way, I couldn't use Server Monitor.
So I am wondering whether Server Monitor support machines w/o LOM at all? Is there an trick I should know about?
Thanks
Kenneth

Hi
There is no trick you need to know. Its really quite simple, Server Monitor only works with XServes. Apple added LOM capability when they rolled out the Intel XServe.

Sun java directory server and Active Directory

We are using two different directory servers Sun java directory server and active directory.
My question is how we can have password synchronization between these two directory servers.
I have checked Sun Java[TM] System Identity Synchronization for Windows 1 2004Q3
http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=41537425
It seems that it's supported platforms is only for solaris and windows , but I have installed my Sun java directory server on linux and obviously it doesn't work for me.
I would be grateful if anyone can suggest a solution to work around this situation.
I have checked identity manager , I would like to know that if I can do this using this product.
http://www.sun.com/software/products/identity_mgr/specs.jsp
--regards.
Sara

Yes RHEL 4 is a supported OS with DSEE 6.0.
Identity Synchronization for Windows is a part of DSEE that allows synchronization of users, passwords and groups between Sun Directory Server and Active Directory bi-directionally without altering the users environments, ie it does not require that users change their current habits.
Identity Manager is a complete identity management solution that is targetting enterprise work flow when it comes to user provisioning and de-provisioning, but also allows to build authentication and password change forms that will provision the passwords to many different systems including Sun Directory Server and Active Directory but also IBM mainframes, legacy applications, databases...
If you are implementing a complete identity management solution, then go with Identity Manager. If you need a lightweight and fast solution for just synchronizing users and passwords between Sun DS and MS AD, Identity Synchronization for Windows should be your choice.

Ludovic.
