Siebel Admin Notifications Test
Siebel Administrator Notification (alias AdminNotify) is a batch-mode component that notifies the Siebel administrator when problems are detected on the Siebel Server or its running components. Whenever notifications are received, administrators are required to keep track on the notifications that were received and processed, how many notifciations were handled successfully and how many actually failed. The Siebel Admin Notifications test helps administrators identify the same!
This test reports the number of notifications received and processed for each component and also reports the numerical statistics of the invocations that were handled successfully and the invocations that failed. Using the Siebel Admin Notifications test, you can easily identify the ability of the Siebel server and analyze the cause of failure if too many failure notifications are identified!
Target of the test : A Siebel Application Server
Agent deploying the test : A remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for each Siebel server being monitored.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Test period |
How often should the test be executed |
Host |
The host for which the test is to be configured. |
Port |
The port number at which the specified host listens to. By default, this is 1199. |
JMX Remote Port |
Specify the port at which the JMX listens for requests from the remote hosts. Ensure that you specify the same port that you have mentioned in the agentconfig.connectors.xml file in the <SIEBEL_INSTALL_DIR>\siebsrvr\mgmtagent\pref\system folder used in the target application. |
JNDIName |
The JNDIName is a lookup name for connecting to the JMX connector. By default, this is jmxrmi. If you have resgistered the JMX connector in the RMI registery using a different lookup name, then you can change this default value to reflect the same. |
Siebel Agent User and Siebel Agent Password |
In order to monitor the Siebel Application server, a valid user possessing admin privileges is required. Specify the login credentials of such a user in the Siebel Agent User and Siebel Agent Password text boxes. |
Confirm Password |
Confirm the Siebel Agent Password by retyping it here. |
