Custom advisor policy settings

You can configure settings for a custom advisor policy. Custom advisor policies allow for more specific determination of target application server availability by sending protocol level requests to back-end servers. Custom advisor policies are unique based on the combination of the business-level application ID and the composition unit ID.

To view this administrative console page, click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere proxy servers > proxy_server_name > Custom advisor policies > bla_id.

Business-level application ID

Specifies a unique identifier for a business level application. A business-level application is a configuration that is stored in the product configuration repository.

Composition unit ID

Specifies a unique identifier for a composition unit. A composition unit is a registered custom advisor asset that has additional configuration information, which you specified when adding the asset to the application.

Poll interval

Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, between requests for custom advisors.

Connect timeout

Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, to wait before a connection attempt fails.

I/O timeout

Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, for a custom advisor to wait before read and write operations succeed. If the timeout is reached, then the server stops.

Enable logging

Specifies whether or not logging is enabled. By default, the check box is cleared.

If logging is enabled, then the proxy server logs error messages to a log file. If logging is not enabled, log messages are not added to a log file.

Enable log file wrapping

Specifies whether information at the beginning of the log file is overwritten when the maximum log file size is reached. The default value is True.

Log file size

Specifies the size, in megabytes, of the log file.

Custom advisor mappings

Specifies the application servers, application server clusters, or generic server clusters the custom advisor monitors.

Click New custom advisor mapping to access the Custom advisor settings page to create a new custom advisor mapping for a custom advisor.
