Wrapper

In the d.ecs monitor advanced version, it is possible to add functions to d.ecs monitor. So-called wrappers are available for this. These allow either the special monitoring of individual d.velop products or provide required additional monitoring.

For example, d.ecs monitor for d.cold automatically monitors

  • All processing directories of all process chains

    • Number of Err files

    • Total number of files

  • Jobs in all process chains

    • Number of error jobs

    • Total number of jobs

The advantage is, for example, that a changed or newly created process is automatically monitored directly in d.cold. No configuration in the d.ecs monitor is necessary.

Additional functions that were implemented via wrappers are e.g.:

  • d.ecs monitor webservice analyzer

    Monitoring whether a web service is available

  • d.ecs monitor sql query

    Analysis of database tables

An overview of all currently available wrappers can be found in the service portal. This can also be accessed from d.ecs monitor configuration in the configuration wizard.

The wrappers should always be installed on the computer that requires the monitored function or meets the corresponding requirements, e.g.

  • d.ecs monitor for d.cold

    Installation on the d.cold computer

  • d.ecs monitor sql query

    Installation on a computer connected to the database via a corresponding ODBC32 data source.

  • d.ecs monitor directory analyzer

    Installation on the computer hosting these directories (to minimize network traffic) or from which the directories must be accessible (to monitor accessibility)

Warning

Wrappers can only be installed on computers where a d.ecs monitor agent is running.

The configured access groups from the d.ecs monitor are taken into account by the wrappers.

Note that it can take up to five minutes for an adjustment of the access groups in d.ecs monitor to be applied to the wrappers.

Note

The Windows service for d.ecs monitor, d.ecs monitor agent and the d.ecs monitor wrappers must be run under the account of a local system or an account with local administration rights, as the Windows services provide web services that are bound to the host name to enable operation in a d.ecs http gateway cluster.
