Tuxedo Bridges Test

This test reports statistics pertaining to the bridges between the sites in a Tuxedo application.

Target of the test : A Tuxedo Domain Server

Agent deploying the test : An internal agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the server being monitored.

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameter Description

Test period

How often should the test be executed.

Host

The host for which the test is to be configured.

WSNAddr

The network address of the workstation listener that is to be contacted for access to the Tuxedo application. This variable is required for Workstation clients and is ignored for native clients. When invoked by a workstation client, this variable is used within tpinit().

Example:

TCP/IP addresses may be specified in the following forms: 

//host.name:port_number

OR 

//#.#.#.#:port_number, where port_number is the port at which the WSL (Workstation listener) is started for a Tuxedo application or domain.

WSDevice

Specify the name of the device to be used to access the network. This variable is required for Workstation clients and is ignored for native clients. When invoked by a workstation client, this variable is used within tpinit().

Example:

On Unix machines, the value of this parameter can be /dev/tcp.

TuxLibPath

Specify the path to the Tuxedo library.

Example:

On Unix machines, the value of this parameter can be in the form: <TUXEDO_INSTALL_DIR>/lib. On Windows, it can be in the form: <TUXEDO_INSTALL_DIR>\lib.

TuxDir

Specify the installation directory of the Tuxedo domain server.

UserName

If security is enabled for an application, then provide the user name that can be used to connect to the application. Otherwise, enter None.

Password

If security is enabled for an application, then provide the password for the above-mentioned UserName. Otherwise, enter None.

Confirm Password

Confirm the password (if specified) by retyping it here.

TuxConfig

Provide the full path to the tuxconfig file used to run the Tuxedo application.

Measurements made by the test
Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation

Bridge state

Indicates the state of a bridge between two sites in a Tuxedo application

Number

It could take any of the following values:

Value

State

Explanation

1

Active

Indicates that the bridge or connection between two sites in a Tuxedo application is active or established

2

Suspended

Indicates that an established bridge or connection was terminated due to an error condition, and reconnection has been suspended for at least the amount of time indicated in the TA_SUSPTIME attribute value

3

Pending

Indicates that an asynchronous bridge or connection has been requested, but has not yet been completed. The final outcome of the connection request has not been determined.

4

Inactive

Indicates that the bridge or connection between two sites is inactive
