Data sources workspace

This workspace displays statistical data for the data sources that your applications reference when accessing databases.

This workspace displays data provided by the Datasources attributes.

The predefined workspace contains the following items:

  • Worst Data source Query Times bar chart, which shows the longest times (in milliseconds) the application spent waiting to retrieve data from the database during the specified interval
  • Worst Data source Update Times bar chart, which shows the longest times (in milliseconds) the application spent updating data within the database during the specified interval
  • Data sources - Current Interval report, which displays database usage information. For example, this report shows traffic information, such as the time the application spent trying to connect to the database and the total and average processing times for database queries and updates

Accessing the data sources workspace

To access this workspace, complete the following steps:

  1. Within the Navigator, expand Windows Systems, Linux® Systems, UNIX Systems, as appropriate for the node you are monitoring.
  2. Within the node list, expand the entry that corresponds to your node name.
  3. Within the list of monitored applications associated with that node, expand the list of J2EE agents.
  4. Within the list of available agents, expand the J2EE application server entry of your choice.
  5. Within the list of available J2EE application server workspaces on that server, click the Datasources entry.

Selected data source - History workspace

This workspace displays the historical information that corresponds to the information in the data source workspace for a selected data source. Historical information is collected over a specific time span. See the online help for Tivoli® Enterprise Portal for a detailed explanation of historical reporting.

Accessing the Selected data source - History workspace

To access this workspace from the data source workspace, use one of the following procedures:

  • From the Data sources - Current Interval report, right-click, and from the menu, click Selected Datasource - History.
  • From Worst Data source Query Times bar chart or the Worst Data source Update Times bar chart, right-click any bar; then, from the menu, select Link To > Selected Datasource - History.
