Configuration workspaces
Monitoring agent configuration and tuning is facilitated in the Cloud Pak System Software Monitoring Portal through configuration workspaces.
- WebSphere® Agent Configuration workspace (for the Monitoring Agent level)
- Application server Configuration workspace (for the server level)
Both configuration workspaces have the same tabs and configuration settings.
The WebSphere Agent Configuration workspace settings are initial settings applied to all data collectors managed by the monitoring agent. For example, when a data collector connects to the monitoring agent for the first time or if the data collector configuration was deleted. In both these examples, the configuration settings specified in the WebSphere Agent Configuration workspace are applied.
The application server Configuration workspace contains individual server settings and the settings in this workspace override the settings in the WebSphere Agent Configuration workspace.
Workspace | Configuration file |
---|---|
WebSphere Agent Configuration workspace in windows: | CANDLE_HOME\TMAITM6\hostname_productcode.xml |
Application server Configuration workspace in windows: | CANDLE_HOME\TMAITM6\hostname_productcode_servervendor.servernode.server name.xml |
WebSphere Agent Configuration workspace in other platforms: | CANDLE_HOME/config/hostname_productcode.xml |
Application server Configuration workspace in other platforms: | CANDLE_HOME/config/hostname_productcode_servervendor.servernode.server name.xml |
The WebSphere Agent Configuration workspace configuration settings are initial settings which are applied to all data collectors managed by the selected WebSphere agent. The application server Configuration workspace configuration settings override agent level configuration settings.
