Monitor a Policy Server Cluster
The OneView Monitoring infrastructure consists of a number of modules that enable the monitoring of CA SiteMinder® components. Included is the Monitor process that runs in the context of a Java Runtime Environment (JRE). The Monitor GUI’s HTML pages are generated by Java Server Pages (JSPs) and servlets hosted on a ServletExec servlet engine running on the same machine as the Policy Server.
The OneView Monitor utility monitors the following CA SiteMinder® components:
Note: More information about using the OneView Monitor exists in the Policy Server Administration Guide.
The system to which you are configuring the OneView Monitor GUI must meet at least the following system requirements:
Note: The Policy Server installation kit includes the installation executable for ServletExec/AS at the following location:
thirdparty-tools\servlet-engine-6.0
Note: For a list of supported CA and third-party components, refer to the CA SiteMinder® 12.52 Platform Support Matrix on the Technical Support site.
If you did not configure the OneView Monitor GUI when installing the Policy Server, you can configure it using the Policy Server Configuration Wizard.
You can find the following Policy Server Configuration Wizard executables in siteminder_home\siteminder\install_config_info for Windows and siteminder_home/siteminder/install_config_info for UNIX:
Important! If you are running this wizard on Windows Server 2008, run the executable file with administrator permissions. Use these permissions even if you are logged in to the system as an administrator. For more information, see the release notes for your CA SiteMinder® component.
Specifies the path to where the Policy Server is installed.
CA does not support the configuration of the IIS-based OneView Monitor GUI and the IIS Web Agent on the same machine if the Agent has Registration Services enabled. With this configuration, there is a conflict with the same instance of ServletExec.
To configure the OneView Monitor GUI on Windows/IIS complete the following procedures:
Note: The Monitor GUI’s HTML pages are generated by Java Server Pages (JSPs) and servlets hosted on a ServletExec servlet engine running on the same machine as the Policy Server.
Consider the following prerequisites before installing ServletExec:
Note: For more information, see the New Atlanta web site.
Follow these steps:
Note: The Policy Server installation kit includes the installation executable for ServletExec/AS 6.0 at the following location:
thirdparty-tools\servlet-engine-6.0
Note: For more information about upgrading and installing ServletExec, see the New Atlanta documentation.
Since ServletExec/AS runs as part of the IIS process, it runs as different users at different times. As a result, you must set the following permissions for the ServletExec installation directory and subdirectories.
To set permissions for IIS users after installing ServletExec, Make sure the user that runs IIS (for example, Network Services) has read and write access to the entire directory tree under C:\Program Files\New Atlanta.
To configure the OneView Monitor GUI on a UNIX/Sun Java System complete the following procedures:
CA recommends that you read the ServletExec documentation before installing ServletExec. If ServletExec is not running properly, then the OneView Monitor GUI does not work since it relies on ServletExec’s servlet engine.
You can access the ServletExec documentation on the New Atlanta Web site.
Ensure you follow the steps in this section before installing ServletExec.
To disable servlets in Sun Java System 6.0
Specifies the domain name of the Enterprise Administration Server
Specifies the port number
The Monitor GUI’s HTML pages are generated by Java Server Pages (JSPs) and servlets hosted on a ServletExec servlet engine running on the same machine as the Policy Server.
To install ServletExec
Note: You must log in as the same user who installed the Sun Java System Web server.
Note: For more information on running the ServletExec AS installer, refer to New Atlanta Communications' ServletExec documentation. Consider the following before installing ServletExec:
To start the OneView Monitor service
The OneView Monitor uses the following port numbers to communicate with the Policy Server processes:
To see which port numbers are unavailable, open a Command Window and enter:
netstat -an
Note: For more information on changing the port numbers, see the Policy Server Administration Guide.
To access the OneView Monitor GUI
Enter the following URL in a browser:
http://server:<portnumber>/sitemindermonitor
Specifies the Web Server’s IP Address
Specifies the port number.
The OneView Monitor can be configured to monitor a Policy Server cluster when one Policy Server is set up as a centralized monitor for other Policy Servers in a cluster.
Note: More information about using the OneView Monitor exists in the Policy Server Administration Guide.
