Monitoring tool questions

[kadlecp]

Hello,

I would like to create some statistics of my complex business process. The ESB has integrated monitoring tool. I have several questions.

1. I have cluster of ESB servers, shall be managament datastore shared by all ESB instances? I think yes.
2.I do not understand what processing time means.Is it total time the service's threads work? What units are the numbers in?
3.The processing time sometimes decrease its value and sometimes increase its value.I do not understand what it means when the value is decreased.

Thanks
Regards

Now I can see the units are nanoseconds.

Now I can see that processing time is the time of ONE action processing. It's not a sum (I thought is is).

When playing with monitoring tool, I could see the automatic polling does not work. I think I have found a reason.

Does anybody know how to configure monitoring tool when more esb instances are used?

Should all JBossESB monitoring instances be poited to the same datastore (same management-dsl.xml)?

Should be enabled only one DataFilerScheduler mbean in cluster?

Now I have following configuration
1. All management.esb points to same db.
2. I have enabled only one DataFilerScheduler mbean in cluster

My ESB cluster consists of 2 ESB instances.I do not understand why there are doubled lines. I have enabled only ONE DataFilerScheduler mbean.

I have following output

09-22 16:16:34 53.041.258.496
09-22 16:16:34 53.041.258.496
09-22 16:15:34 61.715.935.232
09-22 16:15:34 61.715.935.232

09-22 16:13:34 61.715.935.232
09-22 16:13:34 61.715.935.232

Thanks for help

I have configured my cluster in following way:

Each JBossESB instance has its own management database and its own DataFilerScheduler.

I have separate monitoring of each JBossESB instance.

I have clustered esb services. Each EPR of the service is monitored by seperate monitoring esb tool. I have to manually summarize statistics from the nodes to get complete view on performace.

Sorry, I had asked TomC to comment on this yesterday so I will chase him up. He is the person who has been driving this.
