Enabling and Disabling Process Statistics

Process statistics can be enabled and disabled from the command line or from the Admin UI.

Command Line

Enable or disable the collection of process statistics for all applications in an AppNode by using the enablestats and disablestats commands respectively.

Note: To view command syntax, use the help option on the BWAdmin console. For example, enter help enablestats or help disablestats to view the syntax for the enablestats command or the disablestats command.

To enable collection of statistical data for all processes running in an AppNode at the time of an application startup, set the bw.frwk.event.subscriber.instrumentation.enabled property to TRUE in the AppSpace config.ini file.

If you set the property to FALSE the process instrumentation statistics is disabled at the time of an application startup.

If the property is not set, the previous state of the process instrumentation persists.
