Request Times and Rates attributes

The attributes provide request times and rates information.

The Request Times and Rates attribute group provides information about historical request throughput and average response time for a particular application server.

The attributes within this group are used to build the WebSphere® Application Server workspace.

Application Name The name of the application to which the request belongs. The valid formats are as follows:
  • An alphanumeric string, with a maximum of 256 characters.
  • An empty string means that this sample is aggregated data for all applications
  • It does not support application level monitoring at all and only shows server level statistics when the agent is TEMA 6.1.

ASID The identifier (decimal) assigned to the address space running this servant region.

Average Load The average number of concurrent requests during the interval. The valid format is a decimal (formatted to 3 decimal places).

Average Request Completion Rate The average request completion rate (that is, the request throughput). If the sampling rate is less than 100%, this number is extrapolated to estimate 100% of completed requests. The valid format is a positive integer.

Average Request Response Time The average request response time, in milliseconds. The valid format is a positive integer.

Error Rate (%) The error rate of the request during the interval. The valid format is a decimal (formatted to 3 decimal places).

Interval (sec) The length (in seconds) of the sampling interval. The valid format is a positive integer.

Node Name The name of the system on which the server is running. The value format is an alphanumeric string, with a maximum of 256 characters.

Origin Node The name of the server subnode. The valid format is an alphanumeric string, with a maximum of 128 characters.

Process ID Indicates the process ID of the JVM.

Request Count The number of requests processed during the current interval. The valid format is a positive integer.

Request Data Monitoring Level Indicates request data monitoring level for application.

Request Type The type of request being run. Valid values are Servlet, EJB_Method, Custom, All_Workloads, Unknown, and Portlet.

Sample Date and Time The date and time the monitoring agentcollected the data. The valid format is a 12-character timestamp. For the STR and SCAN functions, the format is MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS; the following table shows the values contained in this character string.

Table 1. Format of the 12-character timestamp
Character String Meaning
MM Month
DD Day
YY Year
HH Hour
MM Minute
SS Second

Example: 09/13/06 18:32:03 indicates the data was collected on September 13, 2006, at 18:32:03.

This attribute was designed for logging and reporting data-collection times rather than for creating situations. To specify a time and date for comparison and testing, use attributes from the Universal Time or Local Time groups.

Sampling Rate (%) The percentage of edge requests-such as servlets and JSPs-that were sampled during the interval. The valid format is a positive integer.

Server Name The name of the application server. The valid format is an alphanumeric string, with a maximum of 256 characters.

Summary Indicates that this row is a summary row of statistical totals for all rows.

Total (ms) The total time used (in milliseconds) during the interval. The valid format is a decimal (formatted to 3 decimal places).
