Services monitoring
You can collect and review information on the services running under Spotfire Server using a variety of tools and resources that are provided with your Spotfire Server installation.
- Accessing performance data
If your users report to you that the system is slower than they expect, you can begin investigating the problems by examining the performance tracking tools found in Monitoring & Diagnostics. - Examining the statistics of an individual analysis
If you have problems with performance of a server, and you suspect one or more analyses of causing the problems on the server, you can examine the suspicious analyses individually using Spotfire Analyst. - Logging and exporting monitoring diagnostics
Monitoring diagnostics can be logged, and the logged results can be exported as a Spotfire analysis file that displays the information in the log files. - Viewing node information
You can gather information about a specific node to analyze its available resources and check version details. This information is useful for troubleshooting and working with Spotfire Support. - Viewing service configuration information
You can gather information about the service configuration for a node. This information is useful for troubleshooting configuration problems. - Web Player metrics to monitor (basic)
Memory and CPU are the major Web Player metrics to monitor. - Web Player metrics to monitor (advanced)
These more advanced Spotfire Web Player metrics can help you determine if your Spotfire implementation is appropriately sized. - Automation Services metrics to monitor
These Automation Services metrics can help you determine if your Spotfire implementation is appropriately sized. - Monitoring CPU usage by nodes
If you have performance problems, and you expect the CPU usage is an issue, you can monitor the usage for nodes and instances. The Spotfire Server Monitoring & Diagnostics tools provide this information. This topic covers monitoring for nodes. - Monitoring CPU usage by instances
If you have performance problems, and you expect the CPU usage is an issue, you can monitor the usage for nodes and instances. The Spotfire Server Monitoring & Diagnostics tools provide this information. This topic covers monitoring for instances. - Viewing assemblies information
You can gather information about the assemblies that are loaded by a specific service. This information is useful for troubleshooting and working with Spotfire Support. - Notification life cycle events
You can view notification life cycle events for a service under Monitoring & Diagnostics. It is possible to configure the events in the Spotfire.Dxp.Worker.Web.config file. - Viewing website information
You can gather information about current activity on the website for a specific service. - Viewing routing
You can get overviews of the routing, such as which instances are used for the different resource pools. You can get this information from both analyses and instances perspectives. - Enabling automatic dump capture from non-responsive Web Players
To capture diagnostic information from Spotfire Web Player services that stop responding, you can enable the automatic dump capture. This functionality is available both when running the Web Player on Windows and on Linux. - Web Player and Automation Services resource usage
An open analysis consumes two main types of resources: memory and CPU.
