Problem(Abstract) |
If the Ping Timeout value for Application Server is set
too low, it can cause the Application Server to restart. You may need to
change monitoring policy settings for the WebSphere Application Server
V5.0 node agent to prevent a restart. |
|
|
|
Resolving the
problem |
To access monitoring policy settings in the administrative
console page:
- Click Servers.
- Select Application Servers.
- Select server_name of the node agent to monitor.
- Select Process Definition.
- Select process type of node agent.
- Select Monitoring Policy.
Options available on the Configuration tab
- Maximum Startup Attempts
Specifies the maximum number of times to attempt to start the Application
Server before giving up.
Data type |
Integer |
 |
 |
- Ping Interval
Specifies the frequency of communication attempts between the parent
process, such as the node agent, and the process it has spawned, such as
an Application Server. Adjust this value based on your requirements for
restarting failed servers. Decreasing the value detects failures sooner;
increasing the value reduces the frequency of pings, reducing system
overhead.
- Ping Timeout
When a parent process is spawning a child process, such as when a process
manager spawns a server, the parent process pings the child process to see
if the child was spawned successfully. This value specifies the number of
seconds that the parent process should wait (after pinging the child
process) before assuming that the child process failed.
Data type |
Integer |
Units |
Seconds |
- Automatic Restart
Specifies whether the process should restart automatically if it fails.
The default is to restart the process automatically.
Data type |
Boolean |
Default |
true |
- Node Restart State
Specifies the desired state for the process after the node completely
shuts down and restarts.
Data type |
String |
Default |
STOPPED |
Range |
Valid values are STOPPED, RUNNING, or
PREVIOUS. If you want the process to return to its current state after the
node restarts, use PREVIOUS. |
