Request Baseline workspace

This workspace displays aggregated information about the request baseline.

The baselining collects statistical information about an application requests completion times and uses this information to assign fair and bad thresholds on the application requests. The product divides the whole request response times into buckets and collects individual hits into each bucket. Use these attributes to get statistics from individual requests collected during baselining interval.

This workspace displays data provided by the Baseline attributes.

The predefined workspace contains:

  • Baseline Data report, which shows lower and upper boundaries for each bucket request as well as the breakdown of nested request types in percentage.
  • Request Label report, which shows the monitoring configuration settings for selected requests, including auto-threshold settings and actual thresholds calculated from the baseline data.
  • Nested Delays Distribution bar chart, which displays a bar for each bucket of response times across the different nested types (JDBC, JCA, JMS, etc.). This chart provides you with additional hints and insight about how to interpret response times distribution displayed in the distribution chart.
  • Response Time Distribution bar chart, which displays the distribution of the servlet response times on the baselining interval, also called zones.

You can use the bar charts to customize automatic request time thresholds. See Enable_Auto_Threshold: set threshold parameters.
