Introduction
Integration Server Administrator 10.7 has a new user interface for monitoring services and documents. The new monitoring user interface runs entirely in the administrator; it has no dependencies on My webMethods Server. This article explains the prerequisites for monitoring in Integration Server or Microservices Runtime.
The default Administrator in 10.7 is the same as in previous releases. The new Administrator can be accessed by clicking a button at the top of the default Administrator:
The new Administrator can also be selected by URL. For example,
http://localhost:5555/WmAdmin
Prerequisites
WmMonitor package
Service monitoring requires the WmMonitor package. A new installation of Integration Server 10.7 automatically selects WmMonitor. WmMonitor must be explicitly selected when installing Microservices Runtime.
External Database
Monitoring requires an external database with the Integration Server and Process Engine database components installed. Process Engine database components are required for archiving, described later in this article. When using the database configuration utility, select Integration Server and Process Engine as products. For example:
Enable Logging
The service logger must be configured to use an external database:
The document logger can also be enabled: Administration > Logging Configuration > View Document Logger Details > Edit Document Logger Details
Enable Service Audit Logging
Service audit logging must be enabled for each service to be monitored. Service audit logging is enabled in webMethods Designer.
In the service’s Input/Output tab fields can be selected for logging:
See “Configuring Service Audit Logging” in webMethods Service Development Help.
Data Management
The Administrator has a new data management interface for archiving and deleting audit log data:
Archiving must be configured in Integration Server or Microservices Runtime to use data management.
Refer to “Configuring the Archive Database” in the Monitor User’s Guide.
