The Enterprise Manager (EM) acts as the central repository for all Introscope performance data and metrics collected in an application environment. The EM processes performance data and makes it available to users for production monitoring and diagnosis. For general information about monitoring performance metrics using Introscope by Wily, see Performance Metrics Monitoring with Introscope by Wily.

You can also install CA Wily Introscope Enterprise Manager if, for example, the capacity of the existing Enterprise Manager is exhausted, or passwords have changed. Furthermore, you can link existing CA Wily Introscope Enterprise Manager instances to SAP Solution Manager.

Features

  • The Configuration tab page shows a list of all the configured CA Wily Enterprise Manager instances with their status and main configuration settings. Use this tab page to:

  • The Performance tab page displays the value of the key performance metrics of Introscope Enterprise Manager over a specific period.

    You can view the values for the following metric types by choosing the Display pushbutton.

    Metric

    Description

    Number of Agents

    This metric indicates the number of agents that are connected to the selected Enterprise Manager.

    EM CPU Usage in Percent

    This metric indicates the CPU utilization caused by the Enterprise Manager.

    GC Duration in Milliseconds

    This metric indicates the garbage collection duration for the Java Virtual Machine on which the Enterprise Manager is running.

    Heap Capacity in Percent

    This metric indicates the heap capacity for the Java Virtual Machine on which the Enterprise Manager is running.

    Number of Metrics

    This metric indicates the number of metrics known to the selected Enterprise Manager. This number decreases as soon as an Introscope agent disconnects from the Enterprise Manager.

    Number of Metrics Processed

    This metric indicates the number of metrics that were processed by the Enterprise Manager within a 15 second interval. Although it may fluctuate statistically, this metric on average should be equal to the number of metrics described above. If the number of metrics processed tends to be less than the number of known metrics, this is an indication that the Enterprise Manager is overloaded because the incoming data cannot be processed quickly enough.

    Total Capacity in Percent

    This metric is calculated from various other metrics to represent the total Enterprise Manager load. It is based on the CPU utilization, garbage collection, and heap. This metric, therefore, indicates potential overloads but not their cause. In order to identify the cause, you need to examine the underlying metrics.

    Duration of the SmartStor Queries in Milliseconds

    SmartStor is a data storage technology from Introscope that stores all of the Introscope metrics. A SmartStor query is used to read data from the SmartStor. These queries are used by the Introscope extractor, for example, to extract data for analyzing the system load.

    SmartStor Capacity in Percent

    This metric indicates the capacity of the SmartStor. It compares the runtime to 15 seconds and outputs the result as a percentage. If the runtime is equal to 15 seconds, for example, the capacity is 100%.
