Configuring Scheduler Instrumentation

The GridServer Manager can use the scheduler_info table, which contains details of GridServer Scheduler operations.

Scheduler Instrumentation Requirements

To configure a database for Scheduler Instrumentation, you must have a supported third-party database. For a list of supported databases, see the readme file included with TIBCO GridServer®.

To configure Scheduler Instrumentation

To configure Scheduler Instrumentation, you must perform the following steps:

1. Install the GridServer Manager and GridServer Engine
2. Task A Configure the Database
3. Task B Configure the Manager (to use the database)
4. Restart the Manager (The JDBC JAR file is picked up by the Manager only after a restart.)

Task A Configure the Database

Create the scheduler_info table in any supported database (Oracle, PostgreSQL, MSSQL). Refer to the syntax provided in the scheduler-info-readme, available in the DS_MANAGER/webapps/livecluster/WEB-INF/etc/db directory.

Task B Configure the Manager

  1. Log in to the GridServer Administration Tool with an account that has a Security Role with the Manager Configuration Edit feature enabled.

  2. Go to Admin > System Admin > Manager Configuration > Services > Scheduler Tracker.

  3. Configure the values in the Scheduler Tracker section on Broker by using the appropriate values given in the following table:

    Note that the hostname is the name of the host and dbName is the name of the database.

    Property Value
    Oracle  
    Database URL jdbc:oracle:thin:@hostname:1521/dbName
    Database Driver oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
    Microsoft SQL Server  
    Database URL

    jdbc:sqlserver://hostname:1433;DatabaseName=dbName; SelectMethod=cursor

    (SelectMethod=cursor is required)
    Database Driver com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    PostgreSQL   
    Database URL jdbc:postgresql://hostname:5432/dbName
    Database Driver org.postgresql.Driver

  4. Copy the corresponding JDBC driver's JAR file to the following Manager's directory: DS_MANAGER/webapps/livecluster/WEB-INF/lib.

  5. Restart the Gridserver Manager.

To view the data, you require an account that has Security Role with the Scheduler Instrumentation feature enabled. The data can be viewed from the UI at Diagnostics > Scheduler Instrumentation on the Broker.
