Monitoring
Monitoring topics provide information about creating and managing notifications, viewing hardware status, searching orchestration jobs, and viewing orchestration job logs.
- About the Web Management Console
- Choosing a Notification Level
Notification levels define the severity of events that can trigger an alert. When you specify a notification level, an alert is only sent for errors that exceed the level you choose. - Creating Notification Policies
Notification policies allow you to monitor potential errors in a specific system. - Deleting Notification Policies
You can delete one or more notification policies. - Editing Notification Policies
- Enabling Email Notification Policies
- Searching for Orchestration Jobs
- Viewing Hardware Status
- Viewing Orchestration Job Logs
The Dashboard displays information about orchestration jobs, including status, timestamp of job events, and key/job ID in multiple tabs: - SNMP basics
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet standard protocol used primarily in network management systems to monitor network devices for conditions that warrant administrative attention. Devices that typically support SNMP include routers, switches, servers, workstations and printers. This section introduces SNMP basics and provides an overview of Cast Iron MIBs. - Setting up an SNMP receiver
You can use the WMC to create notifications for events that happen in runtime components such as orchestrations, security, hardware and others. A delivery mechanism for these notifications is SNMP in which a trap is set for events. To retrieve these events, you must to set up a receiver or manager that is registered with the appliance. Use the procedures in this section to set up an SNMP receiver. - Adding a notifications policy
When you add a notifications policy, you inform administrators of alerts, policy violations and the status changes of job executions. Using SNMP traps, the notification system also allows you to send traps to SNMP-enabled third-party applications. Perform the following steps to add a notifications policy and assign it a name. - About the Resource Utilization Graph
Describes how to use the data the Resource Utilization graph provides for capacity planning and understanding the health of the runtime environment. - Hardware health
Use the information in this section to obtain notifications based on the hardware health of the appliance. - Testing the system
