Monitoring

9. 9 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Transactional vs. Non-Transactional Monitoring
 Non-Transactional Monitoring
– Status and Performance Monitoring based on Averages

– Detailed execution information on a single user request
– Properties and Attributes related to the execution path
Two parts of successful monitoring
