TIBCO Hawk ActiveMatrix Plug-in Overview

TIBCO Hawk ActiveMatrix Plug-in provides features to monitor and manage ActiveMatrix® Service Grid host and node processes, as well as ActiveMatrix Service Grid services and components.

These features can be realized by several Hawk microagents:

  • The ActiveMatrix Service Grid Host Microagent
  • The ActiveMatrix Service Grid Microagent
  • Common Logging Event Publisher Microagent

The Host Microagent enables simple monitoring and management of the TIBCO Host process, by providing basic status information about the host and nodes managed by the host.

The Service Microagent allows for monitoring of status and performance statistics of service components and bindings running on a node. The performance statistics provided are of short duration (in the last five minutes) and include metrics such as hits, faults, and average response time.

The Common Logging Event Publisher Microagent enables Hawk microagents to connect to the ActiveMatrix Service Grid Common Logging Service, to provide events for logging purposes.

Overview of ActiveMatrix Host and Service Microagents, illustrates how the Host and Service Microagents interact with the ActiveMatrix Service Grid host and nodes.

The Host and Service Microagents are TIBCO Hawk Plug-in microagents and they are started as part of the Hawk Agent process.

Note: These microagents require the Hawk HMA to be running to function correctly.
