JMS Statistics Test

This test reports the performance statistics of each JMS Connection factory in the IBM Integration Bus. Using this test, administrators can be proactively alerted to potential processing bottlenecks in the JMS Connection factory.

Target of the test : An IBM Integration Bus

Agent deploying the test : An internal/remote agent.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each Execution Group:JMS Connection factory_JNDI bindings location of the IBM Integration Bus that is to be monitored

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameters Description

Test period

How often should the test be executed.

Host

The host for which the test is to be configured.

Port

The port on which the specified host listens.

JNDI Namespace Location

Indicate where the JNDI namespace has been created. For this, select one of the following options: File or LDAP. Select File if the JNDI namespace is created in the same location as that of the IIB server.

SSL

If you have chosen LDAP as the JNDI Namespace Location wherein the LDAP server communicating with the IIB server that is to be monitored is an SSL-enabled server, then set the SSL flag to Yes. By default, this flag is set to No.

User DN and Password

Here, provide the credentials of the Active Directory user created as explained in Creating a user in the Active Directory server, if the target IIB server is monitored in an agentless manner. If the IIB server is to be monitored in an agent based manner, specify none against these parameters.

Confirm Password

Confirm the Password by retyping it in this text box.

JNDI Provider URL

Specify the URL that was specified as the provider URL while creating the initial context. To know the Provider URL, refer to Agent based monitoring of the IIB server if you choose to monitor the target IIB server in an agent based manner and Agentless Monitoring of the IIB server if you chose to monitor the target IIB server in an agentless manner.

TopicConnectionFactory

Specify the name of the connection factory in this text box. If you have chosen to monitor the target IIB server in an agent-based manner, refer to Creating a Connection Factory and if you have chosen to monitor the target IIB server in an agentless manner, refer to Creating a Connection Factory.

JMS Resource Stats

Specify the name of the JMS destination that you have created for storing the Resource statistics. If you chose to monitor the target IIB server in an agentless manner, refer to Creating the JMS Destinations and if you choose to monitor the target IIB server in an agent based manner, refer to Agent based monitoring of the IIB server.

JMS Flow Stats

Specify the name of the JMS destination that you have created for storing the Message flow statistics. If you chose to monitor the target IIB server in an agentless manner, refer to Creating the JMS Destinations and if you choose to monitor the target IIB server in an agent based manner, refer to Agent based monitoring of the IIB server.

Measurements made by the test
Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation

Open JMS connections

Indicates the number of JMS connections that are currently open in this JMS Connection factory.

Number

 

Open JMS sessions

Indicates the number of JMS sessions that are currently open in this JMS Connection factory.

Number

 

Message received rate

Indicates the rate at which messages were received byJMSInput or JMSReceive nodes in this JMS Connection factory during the last measurement period.

Messages/sec

Comparing the value of these measures across the JMS Connection factories will help you identify the JMS Connection factory that is most busy receiving/sending messages.

Message sent rate

Indicates the rate at which messages are sent by JMSOutput nodes in this JMS Connection factory during the last measurement period.

Messages/sec

Comparing the value of these measures across the JMS Connection factories will help you identify the JMS Connection factory that is most busy receiving/sending messages.

Message browsed rate

Indicates the rate at which messages were received by the JMSReceive nodes in this JMS Connection factory during the last measurement period.

Messages/sec

Comparing the value of these measures across the JMS Connection factories will help you identify the JMS Connection factory that is most busy receiving/sending messages.

JMS connection failures

Indicates the total number of attempted JMS connections that failed since the time the integration server was last restarted during the last measurement period.
