Service – Similar to built-in txrpt
Per service metrics, rate and elapsed time
System servers – Domain gateways, BRIDGE, etc.
Rate of message flow and amount of queued traffic
XA – Monitor the stages of a distributed transaction

8. Real-time Monitoring Flexible dynamic monitoring policy
Request ratio, i.e., every 1/10 request
Interval, i.e., once per minute
Monitored components
Messages tagged with new TCM to carry performance monitoring information such as correlation ID, start time, etc.
Extensible plug-in model supporting fan-out

11. Oracle Enterprise Manager
Tuxedo Cloud Control Plug-in
Single console for hosts, database, middleware, applications
Adds monitoring targets: Domains, Machines, Groups, Servers, tlisten, etc.
Metrics: polled from JMX agent in tlisten
JMX agent provides access to Tuxedo MIB
Throughput, response time, availability, etc.
Management – Dynamically create domains from scratch, edit configuration, deploy application packages
Administration – Start/stop domains, machines, groups, and servers

12. Oracle Enterprise Manager
Tuxedo Cloud Control Plug-in
Downloadable plug-in for Enterprise Manager Cloud Control
Consists of 3 components:
Oracle Management Server add-on
OEM Host Agent add-on
JMX Agent inside the tlisten process

13. Tuxedo Cloud Control Accounting a chargeback data collection
Features
Accounting a chargeback data collection

Introduction to TSAM Plus TSAM Plus New Features Solving Real World Problems with TSAM Plus TSAM Plus Demonstration Summary and Q&A 2 3 4 5

23. Solving Real World Problems
TSAM Plus Best Practices
Development
Understanding and characterizing application performance
Pre-Production
Optimize Tuxedo configuration
Production
User complaint slow response times

24. Preliminary Steps Before Problems Occur
Know what’s normal to know what’s abnormal
Collect baseline performance data and application behavior
Average response times
Average queue depths
Average network loads
Average CPU utilization
Callpaths and call patterns
Establish SLAs and background monitoring policies
Catch problems before they become problems

25. Development Hard to predict service interactions in SOA applications
Understanding and characterizing application performance
Hard to predict service interactions in SOA applications
Use service monitoring to identify poor performing services
Use callpath monitoring to identify excessively long callpaths
Customer example: 1 service calling another service 370 times
Use extended callpath monitoring to identify chatty database access

26. Pre-production Generate expected peak load
Optimize Tuxedo configuration
Generate expected peak load
Determine number of servers: use service monitoring or EM to observe:
server utilization
queue depth
Monitor service execution times and establish/adjust SLA alerts
Watch for unexpected failed requests

27. Production Establish baseline performance for services
Troubleshooting Slow Response Times
Establish baseline performance for services
For composite applications, start with BTM
Enable callpath monitoring, be sure to enable correct initiator(s)
Define alerts to warn of problem before users notice them
Use ECID from BTM to locate callpath
Identify abnormal behavior or performance
Enable extended monitoring to examine database access
