Web Services Gate Way attributes

The attributes provide Web Services Gateway information.

The Web Services Gate Way attributes display aggregated information about the Web Services Gateway, including synchronous requests, asynchronous requests, synchronous responses, and asynchronous responses.

The attributes within this group are used to build the Web Services workspace.

Important:
  • The attributes within this attribute group contain zeros for performance data if your site has set configuration value Resource Data Collection Method to On Demand (for on-demand sampling) and if you have not yet run applications that generate performance data. To report performance data in these attributes after installing and configuring the data collector, use the WebSphere® administrative console to set the appropriate PMI instrumentation level.
  • The monitoring agent is set by default to provide on-demand sampling; thus the attributes within this attribute group initially contain zeros until you select the workspace and select it again later. Each time you select the workspace, these attributes are updated with the latest data.

Asynchronous Requests The number of asynchronous requests made. The valid format is a positive integer.

Asynchronous Responses The number of asynchronous responses made. The valid format is a positive integer.

Instrumentation Level The instrumentation level for the Web Services Gateway counters. For WebSphere Version 6 or later, the valid values are None, Basic, Extended, All, Custom. Blank if no instrumentation level is set.

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.

Sample Date and Time The date and time the monitoring agent collected 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.

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.

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

Summary Whether this row is a summary row of statistical totals for all rows. Valid values are No and Yes.

Synchronous Requests The number of synchronous requests made. The valid format is a positive integer.

Synchronous Responses The number of synchronous responses made. The valid format is a positive integer.

Web Service The name of the web service. The valid format is an alphanumeric string, with a maximum of 256 characters.
