Default Parameters for BobiCMSStTest

This test continuously monitors the availability and processing ability of the CMS and proactively alerts administrators of the probable slowdown/outage of the CMS. In the process, the test enables administrators to swiftly initiate preventive action, so that the potential performance anomalies are kept at bay.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the BobiCMSStTest.

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

  • Specify the RMI port number of the BOBI monitoring application in the JMX REMOTE PORT text box. To know the RMI port number of the monitoring application, refer to Monitoring SAP Business Objects document.

  • Specify the lookup name for connecting to the JMX connector of the BOBI monitoring application in the JNDI NAME text box. To know the JNDI name, refer to Monitoring SAP Business Objects document.

  • Enter the credentials of an enterprise authenticated BOBI user belonging to the default monitoring users group in the JMX USER and JMX PASSWORD text boxes.

  • Confirm the password by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

  • Specify the name of the BOBI node being monitored in the NODE NAME text box. Note that the NODE NAME parameter is case-sensitive.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with “$” indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to “xyz” and $port will be changed to “80” when configuring a test.
