Defining Analytic Engine Settings

Edit online

About this task

You can adjust the tolerance and threshold values for the Analytic Engine to increase or reduce the amount of activity from diagnosis warnings.

When a tolerance value is met, the Analytic Engine creates a diagnosis of above normal or below normal. That diagnosis appears in My webMethods on the Analytics Overview page and other pages throughout the system, and a notification is issued if a rule has been created for that condition.

To define Analytic Engine settings

Procedure

  1. In My webMethods: Navigate > Applications > Administration > System-Wide > Environments > Define Environments.
  2. On the Define Environments page, click the name of the environment for which you want to define Analytic Engine settings.
  3. On the Edit Environment page, click the Configure Servers tab.
  4. Under the appropriate Analytic Engine logical server node in the configuration tree, click Analytic Engine Settings.
  5. In the Analytic Engine Settings for Analytic Engine area, define the Analytic Engine settings that you want the logical server to use.
    The following table provides information about the Analytic Engine settings.
    Field Description
    Tolerance The number of standard deviations to allow before creating a diagnosis. The default value is 1.0.
    Trending Threshold The number of consecutive trends that can occur before a diagnosis is made. The default value is 3.
    Trending Tolerance A number between 0 and 1 that indicates a percentage. Optimize will only trigger trending if the difference between readings is greater than the percentage indicated in this field.
    Publish Event Processing Metrics Indicates whether or not Optimize will publish internal events for the Event Publication metrics. The check box is enabled by default.
    Publish Persistence Metrics Indicates whether or not Optimize will publish internal events for the Persistence metrics. The check box is enabled by default.

    If you click Finish without first clicking Save, any changes made to these settings will be lost.
