BE Concepts

These displays present performance metrics and alert status for your BusinessEvents concepts. Clicking BE Concepts from the left/navigation menu opens the TIBCO BE Concepts Table display, which shows all available utilization metrics for all BE concepts. The options available under BE Concepts are:

Concept Hit Summary: Opens the TIBCO BE Concept Hit Summary , which shows details and alert status for a BE concept.
Channels: Opens the TIBCO BE Channel Status Table display, which shows information for destinations and channels for a single BE node.
Inference Agents Table: Opens the TIBCO BE Inference Agents Table display, which displays agents data for a specific cluster.
RTC Reports Table: Opens the TIBCO BE RTC Txn Manager Reports display, which displays reports data for a specific cluster.

 

TIBCO BE Concepts Table

View a list of concepts and their run-time statistics. Choose a single cluster or All Clusters and a node from the drop-down menus. Double-clicking on a row in the table displays additional details as well as hit rates and current hits over time for the concept in the TIBCO BE Concept Hit Summary display. Each row in the table contains data for a particular concept. Click a column header to sort column data in ascending or descending order. Toggle between the commonly accessed Table and Summary displays by clicking the drop down list on the display title.

Node-Level Concept Statistics Table:

Each row in the table provides statistics regarding data access for a given BusinessEvents concept.

Note: Row columns in this table with an asterisk (*) at the end of the column definition contain data that is provided by the TIBCO MBean interface. Refer to TIBCO documentation for more information regarding these columns.

 

Concept

The name of the concept.

 

Connection

The name of the connection.

 

Cache Size

The size of the concept’s cache.*

 

Get Avg Time

The average time taken for a “get” operation.*

 

Put Avg Time

The average time taken for a “put” operation.*

 

Remove Avg Time

The average time taken for a “remove” operation.*

 

Gets/s

The rate of “gets” for the concept.

 

Puts/s

The rates of “puts” for the concept.

 

Removes/s

The rate of “removes” for the concept.

 

Get Count

When checked, performance data has not been received within the time specified (in seconds) in the Expire Time field in the Duration region in the RTView Configuration Application > (Project Name) > Solution Package Configuration > TIBCO BusinessEvents > DATA STORAGE tab. The Delete Time field (also in the Duration region) allows you to define the amount of time (in seconds) in which the row will be removed from the table if there is no response.

 

Time Stamp

TIBCO BE Concept Hit Summary

Clicking Concept Hit Summary in the left/navigation menu opens the TIBCO BE Concept Hit Summary display, which allows you to view current and historic data for a single concept. Data in this display can be useful if your BusinessEvents system uses Cache object management. When Cache object management is used, concepts with a sufficiently long time to live (TTL) setting are cached.

Cache reference patterns for certain concepts may be related to incoming events (for example, customer purchase orders with associated inventory queries). The trend charts show the cache activity of such concepts, and might be useful in diagnosing the behavior of your application over time.

There are two options in the trend graph region: Hit Rates and Current Hits. In the Hit Rates trend graph region, you can view the number of “get” operations per second, the number of “put” operations per second, and the number of “remove” operations per second over a selected time range. In the Current Hits trend graph region, you can view the number of “get” operations, the number of “put” operations, and the number of “remove” operations over a selected time range. Clicking the Critical/Warning link at the bottom of the display opens the Alerts Table by Component display.

Trend Graphs

Hit Rates

Shows metrics for the selected cluster/node/concept combination:

Gets/s -- Traces the rate of “get” operations for the concept.

Puts(/sec)-- Traces the rate of “put” operations for the concept.

Removes(/sec)-- Traces the rate of “remove” operations for the concept.

Current Hits

Shows metrics for the selected cluster/node/concept combination:

Gets(/sec) -- Traces the number of “get” operations for the concept.

Puts(/sec)-- Traces the number of “put” operations for the concept.

Removes(/sec)-- Traces the number of “remove” operations for the concept.

 

 

Use Rates

When selected, this toggle allows you to view data in the trend graph in counts per second (“get” operations count per second, “put” operations count per second, and “remove” operations count per second) instead of the default counts per selected interval (“get” operations count, “put” operations count, “remove” operations count).

 

 

Log Scale

This option should be used when the range of your data is very broad. When checked, the values are displayed using a logarithmic scale rather than using the actual values so that data on the extreme ends of the scale can be viewed more effectively. For example, if you have data that ranges from the tens to the thousands, the data in the range of the tens will be neglected visually if you do not check this option.

 

 

 

Time Settings

Select a time range from the drop down menu varying from 5 Minutes to Last 7 Days. By default, the time range end point is the current time.

 

To change the time range, deselect the now toggle, which displays some additional date fields. You can click the left and right arrow buttons to decrease the end time by one time period (the time selected in the Time range drop down) per click, or you can choose the date and time from the associated calendar and clock icons. You can also enter the date and time in the text field using the following format: MMM dd, YYYY HH:MM:ss. For example, Aug 21, 2018 12:24 PM. Click the now toggle to reset the time range end point to the current time.

 

 

 

Last Update

The date and time in which the data was last updated in the display.

 

Critical/ Warning

The number of critical and warning alerts.

 

Expired

When true, performance data has not been received within the time specified (in seconds) in the Expire Time field in the Duration region in the RTView Configuration Application > (Project Name) > Solution Package Configuration > TIBCO BusinessEvents > DATA STORAGE tab. The Delete Time field (also in the Duration region) allows you to define the amount of time (in seconds) in which the row will be removed from the table if there is no response.

 

 

TIBCO BE Channel Status Table

Clicking Channels in the left/navigation menu opens the TIBCO BE Channel Status Table display, which allows you to view a list of destinations, which are sources and sinks of events, and Channels. Destinations are potentially bi-directional, and the table indicates whether events are sent or received. Channels provide a class wrapper for destinations, and make it possible to enable or disable a group of destinations with one operation.

Click a column header to sort column data in ascending or descending order. Toggle between the commonly accessed Table and Summary displays by clicking the drop down list on the display title.
