Application Monitoring

An application is a group of identical or similar components divided based on business requirements. Applications are classified into system applications and custom applications. System applications are discovered based on built-in discovery rules, and custom applications are discovered based on custom rules.

The ICAgent reports resource information every ten minutes. The following describes the resource status changes:

  • If the ICAgent on a host does not report resource information for three consecutive times, the system determines that the resource has been deleted. Therefore, the host status is displayed as Deleted within 30 minutes after the ICAgent is uninstalled or the resource is deleted.
  • When the ICAgent on a host reports resource information for one time, the system determines that the resource exists. The host status is displayed as Normal ten minutes after the resource is created or the ICAgent is installed.
  1. On the menu bar, choose Monitoring Center.
  2. In the navigation pane, choose Infrastructure Monitoring > Application Monitoring.

    • The application list displays parameters such as the application name, deployment mode, application discovery rule, and number of components.
    • To view target applications, set filter criteria (such as the deployment mode, running status, and application name) above the application list.
    • In the upper right corner of the page, set application filter criteria.
      1. Set a time range to view the applications reported. There are two methods to set a time range:

        Method 1: Use a predefined time label, such as Last 30 minutes or Last hour. You can select a time range as required.

        Method 2: Specify the start time and end time (max. 15 days).

      2. Set the interval for refreshing information. Click in the upper right corner and select a value from the drop-down list, such as Refresh manually or 1 minute auto refresh.
      3. Click in the upper right corner, select or deselect the check boxes to show or hide columns.
    • Click Create Application. On the page that is displayed, configure an application discovery rule. Applications that meet the rule can be automatically discovered and related metrics can be monitored. For details, see Configuring Application Discovery.

  3. Set filter criteria to search for the desired application.
  4. Click the application name. The Application Details page is displayed.

    • On the Application Details page, view the running status, ID, and creation time of the application.
    • In the upper right corner of the page, set a time range and refresh frequency.
    • On the Component List tab page, view the name, status, and resource usage of components. You can click a component name to view its metrics on the Component Details page.
    • Enter an instance name in the search box in the upper right corner and click to search.
    • Click to refresh the component list.
    • On the Host List tab page, view the name, IP address, status, and resource usage of hosts. You can click a host name to view its metrics on the Host Details page.
    • On the Monitoring View tab page, view key metrics of the target application, such as the CPU usage.
    • On the Alarms tab page, view the alarm details of the application. For details, see Viewing Alarms.
