Monitoring SA Core components

You will need to monitor the SA internal components for troubleshooting and adjusting component behavior.

Overview

SA provides system diagnostic tests in the SA Client to diagnose the functioning of the following SA components:

• Data Access Engine
• Software Repository
• Command Engine
• Web Services Data Access Engine
• Multimaster Infrastructure Components (referred to as the Model Repository Multimaster Component in the SA documentation)

This section provides information for performing basic monitoring of the components listed above and for the following additional SA components:

• Server Agent
• Agent Cache
• SA Client
• Model Repository
• Spoke
• Gateways
• OS Build Manager
• OS Boot Server
• OS Media Server

Use this information when the System Diagnosis tests cannot be used because the SA Client cannot be run or when your managed environment is already set up for automated monitoring. In that case, you can use these commands to automate your system diagnosis and to monitor SA.

This monitoring includes:

• Commands to confirm specific component processes are running, as well as examples of the expected output
• Commands provided by component and by operating system
• Component specific ports, logs, and administrative URLs

The commands shown in this document must be entered all on one line. However, to make sure that the commands and the resulting output are readable, they might have been modified with spaces, blank lines, and line breaks, or backslashes (\) to indicate where a command has been continued on the following line. Also, the output shown is intended as an example only. The output on your servers will be different.

For a description of each of the SA components mentioned in this document, see the SA 10.51 Key Concepts Guide.
