IBM Performance Management

Administering

Administering the Performance Management infrastructure and agents involves maintenance tasks such as changing passwords and customization tasks such as adding and editing applications.

  • Starting the Performance Management console
    Log in to the Performance Management console from your browser to review the health status of your applications in the dashboards.
  • Managing user access
    Use the Role Based Access Control feature in IBM® Performance Management to grant users the access privileges they require for their role.
  • Administering the console
    Use the Performance Management console configuration and customization options to manage user access and your monitored resources.
  • Adjusting the console timeout value
    The LTPA token has a default expiration timeout of 200 minutes, after which you are automatically logged off. You can adjust the timeout value to accommodate your work requirements.
  • Administering your agents
    Your IBM Performance Management installation has tools for managing your monitoring agents.
  • Managing synthetic transactions and events
    Create synthetic transactions that monitor the performance and availability of internal applications and external applications.
  • Administering server components
    The Performance Management server requires some ongoing maintenance such as changing passwords and backing up the components. Use the available functions for server administration tasks. You must complete these tasks as the root user.
