Description John Mazzitelli 2008-12-09 17:22:00 UTC
Recently added the ability to see individual comm message metrics. But we only show the count of "success" and "failure" messages.

I would like to see more fine-grained stats like number that succeeded, failed, dropped or deferred (due to server MM).



Comment 1 John Mazzitelli 2008-12-09 18:58:29 UTC
see JOPR-30 for the rhq-server plugin updates that will use this

Comment 2 Jeff Weiss 2009-01-09 18:27:56 UTC
Where do i find these metrics?

Comment 3 John Mazzitelli 2009-01-09 20:29:13 UTC
These metrics can be found under the RHQ Server JBossAS server resource that you must import into inventory.  That server resource has a child service resource called "RHQ Server Communications Subsystem" which has the following metrics defined on them:

 * NumberFailedCommandsReceived
 * NumberSuccessfulCommandsReceived
 * NumberTotalCommandsReceived
 * NumberDroppedCommandsReceived
 * NumberNotProcessedCommandsReceived
 * AverageExecutionTimeReceived

You can see their descriptions in the UI (and the plugin descriptor).

In addition, the more fine-grained measurements can be found by executing the operation called "View Received Call Time Data" found on that same child service resource.  That will return tabular data - one row per remote POJO method/command type. Each row has the following columns:

    command - name of the remote POJO method/command type invoked
    totalCount - total number of times the command was invoked
    successCount - number of times the command was successfully invoked
    failureCount - number of times the command failed
    droppedCount - number of times concurrency limits forced the command to drop without being invoked
    notProcessedCount - number of times a command was sent in but was not processed due to the server being in maintenance mode
    executionMinTime - the fastest time an invocation took
    executionMaxTime - the slowest time an invocation took
    executionAvgTime - the average time successful invocations took


Comment 4 Jeff Weiss 2009-02-09 16:57:28 UTC
I looked at the metrics page for this resource, and executed the operation 'View Received Call Time Data'.  Everything looks fine here, although I have no way to verify the metrics are actually correct.  They are sane, at least.
