This book describe how to monitor an Ensemble production using the Ensemble Management Portal. Other types of monitoring
are available, and other books describe them. For example:
• To read about a command-line interface that you can use to retrieve basic status information from a running production
via a Telnet connection or command-line script, see the section “TCP Status Service” in the “TCP Text Line Inbound
Adapter” chapter of Using TCP Adapters with Ensemble.
• Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) is a feature of the Windows operating system that provides a standardized
way of collecting management information. It allows users and programmers to access management information from
the operating system and other applications in a variety of ways, including scripts, programming languages, and management
tools and applications. WMI is the Microsoft implementation of the Web-Based Enterprise Management
(WBEM) standard from the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF).
The InterSystems implementation of WMI signals an Ensemble_LogEvent each time an Ensemble business host posts
an alert to the Ensemble Event Log. To set up WMI monitoring for InterSystems products, see “Monitoring Caché
Using WMI” in the Caché Monitoring Guide.
