In addition to the WebSphere metrics that Uptime Infrastructure Monitor collects, detailed system level performance metrics are also available. This enables you to analyze system compute performance, memory usage, disk and network performance, and then relate underlying system behavior to specific metrics within WebSphere. Uptime Infrastructure Monitor

UIM collects metrics from WebSphere objects called modules. A module represents a resource category for which data is collected by the WebSphere Performance Management Infrastructure. Each module has at least one XML configuration file that lists a unique identifier for each piece of performance data contained in the module.

Per EJB

The following metrics are collected per Enterprise JavaBean (EJB) on a WebSphere server: .

Metric
Explanation
DescriptionModule

CreateCount

The number of times that the Enterprise JavaBeans that are running on the server were created.

beanModule.creates

RemoveCount

The number of times that the EJBs were removed.

beanModule.removes

PassivateCount

The number of times that EJBs were removed from the cache. Note that passivation preserves the state of the EJBs on the disk.

beanModule.passivates

MethodCallCount

The total number of method calls that were made to the EJBs.

beanModule.activates

MethodResponse Time

MethodResponseTime

The average response time, in milliseconds, on the bean methods.

beanModule.avgMethodRt

...

connection pool

The following metrics are collected per connection pool on a WebSphere server:

MetricDescriptionModule

ConnectionPoolSize

Connection PoolSize

The size of the connection pool to the data source.

connectionPoolModu le

connectionPoolModule.poolSize

FreePoolSi ze

FreePoolSize

The number of free connections in the pool.

connectionPoolModu le

connectionPoolModule.freePoolSize

PercentUsed

The percentage of the connection pool that is currently in use.

connectionPoolModu le

connectionPoolModule.percentUsed

WaitTime

The average time, in milliseconds, that a connection is used. The average time is the difference between the time at which the connection is allocated and the time at which it is returned.

connectionPoolModu le

connectionPoolModule.avgWaitTime

CloseCount

The total number of connections that were closed.

connectionPoolModu le

connectionPoolModule.numDestroys

Connection PoolCount

ConnectionPoolCount

The total number of connections that were created.

connectionPoolModu le

connectionPoolModule.numDestroys

WaitingThre adCount

WaitingThreadCount

The number of threads that are currently waiting for a connection.

 


UseTime

The average time, in milliseconds, that a connection is used. The average use time is the difference between the time at which the connection is allocated and that time at which it is returned.

Module.useTime

Other

The following metrics are collected from the WebSphere system, the Java Virtual Machine, the thread pool, or servlets:

MetricDescriptionModule

CPUUsage

The percent of CPU resources that were used since the last query.

systemModule.avgCpuUtilization

HeapSize

The total amount of memory that is available for the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

jvmRuntimeModule.totalMemory

UsedMemory

The amount of memory that is being used by the JVM.

jvmRuntimeModule.usedMemory

 

 

 

ActiveCount

The number of threads which are concurrently active.

threadPoolModule.activeThreads

CommittedCo unt

CommittedCount

The total number of global transactions that have been committed.

transactionModule.globalTransCommitted

RolledBackCo unt

RolledBackCount

The total number of global transactions that have been rolled back.

transactionModule.globalTransRolledBack

LiveCount

The number of servlet sessions that are currently cached in memory.

servletSessionsModule.liveSessions

TimeSinceLas tActivated

TimeSinceLastActivated

The difference, in milliseconds, between the previous and current access time stamps of a servlet session. This counter does not include session time out values.

servletSessionsModule.timeSinceLastActivated

ServletPoolSize

The average number of threads in the servlet connection thread pool.
