CA APM Cross-Enterprise Metrics › CA SYSVIEW Metric Categories

CA SYSVIEW Metric Categories

You can configure the CA Cross-Enterprise APM Agent to collect metrics from a single instance of CA-SYSVIEW. The CE APM agent must be running on the same LPAR as that instance is running.

The configuration file, Cross-Enterprise_APM_Dynamic.properties, has configuration properties for collection (yes,no) or regex (regular expression) for each metric category. The properties that end with ‘.collect’ control whether the associated CA SYSVIEW command is executed at all. The properties that end with ‘.regex’ can be set to blank to prevent the collection or to a regular expression to filter the queue managers, queues, address spaces, subsystems, or regions to collect. Within the regex value, you can also use selection criteria wildcards. For example, regex=CQ* gathers only those regions beginning with the letters CQ.

If the CA-SYSVIEW command associated with a metric category is configured to be executed, then you can also specify how often a metric category is collected using the skip interval properties.

The configuration file has specific examples and helping instructions that are contained within the file.

Each monitored CA SYSVIEW subsystem reports metrics. The metric categories are as follows:
