System Health

Use System Health to view a snapshot of the overall system health of your business solution. This widget provides a single place from which you can quickly assess the status of application servers, nodes, clusters, deployment environments, messaging engines and their queues, databases, system applications, and failed events.

Tabs

The System Health widget displays the status of and information about the following items on your system, organized into tabs for easy browsing.
Topology tab
Deployment environments
Lists the status of all deployment environments on the system that match any filter criteria you specified. If you specify no criteria, all objects are displayed.
Clusters
Lists the status of all clusters on the system that match any filter criteria you specified. If you specify no criteria, all objects are displayed.
Stand-alone servers
Lists the status of all stand-alone servers on the system that match any filter criteria you specified. If you specify no criteria, all objects are displayed.
Node agents
Lists the status of all node agents on the system.
System Applications tab
System applications
Lists the status of Business Process Choreographer, Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) and Service Component Architecture (SCA) applications and services configured on your system (for example, the failed event manager, Business Process Choreographer containers, and the Event Service), as well as Business Space widgets and the Business Space Manager.
System data sources
Lists the data sources that match any filter criteria you specified. If you specify no criteria, System Health displays all data sources on the system, including the Common database, the Business Process Execution database, the Common Event Infrastructure database, and the Service Integration Bus database.
Note: The widget does not provide accurate status information for the following types of data sources:
  • Custom data sources or support cluster data sources that were not configured as part of the deployment environment. These data sources are not listed in the widget.
  • A data source whose authentication alias is not set. In this case, the data source is listed in the widget but its status is Unavailable. Use the administrative console to determine the actual status.
System messaging engines
Lists the messaging engines configured on the system and application buses (SCA.SYSTEM.busID.Bus, SCA.APPLICATION.busID.Bus, CEI.cellName.BUS, and BPC.cellName.Bus).
Applications tab
Applications
Lists enterprise applications installed on the system that match any filter criteria you specified. If you specify no criteria, all objects are displayed.
Failed event count tab
If the Recovery subsystem is enabled, lists the number of failed events.
Queues tab
Queue depth
Displays current queue depth for the messaging point. If not all messaging engines are running, only partial queue depth is available. Use the radio buttons to select the subset of queues you want to display in the System Health widget.

Status icons

Status for application servers, nodes, clusters, deployment environments, messaging engines, databases, and system applications are indicated by the following icons.
