(DI-1808) BW Add-on

You have to schedule HMBW_1DAY collector for enablement of BW Add-on analyses.

Scheduling BW analysis

1. Run transaction /DVD/MON for Insights monitor.
2. Switch to 'Collector Jobs' tab.
   
   

   
   

3. Click on 'Create collector job' button . 
4. Fill following collector job settings:
   1. System ID - system where to run analysis (Insights BW module must be installed on the monitored system). This should be satellite system. 
   2. Monitoring profile - profile that specifies analyses to be run on the system. Currently BW module supports following profiles and their respective collectors:
      1. HMBW_1DAY profile with collectors:
         1. Data Distribution Collector
         2. Query Usage Collector
   3. Execution - time when first analysis run should be executed.
   4. Period - periodicity of collector job execution. This setting should follow these recommendations for monitoring profiles of BW module:
      1. HMBW_1DAY:
         1. Type: Days
         2. Value: 1
   5. Retention time- periodicity of KPI values deletion. This setting should follow these recommendations for monitoring profiles of BW module:
      1. HMBW_1DAY - 365 days
      
5. Click on (Re)Start collector job button . 
6. Newly created collector job will appear in table of all collector jobs with all the necessary information regarding its execution status.

   
   

   

Optional collector parameters

Some of collectors do support parameters that can change behavior of their analyses. In this section these parameters are explained. To specify parameter for a collector following steps are needed:

1. Select "Monitoring settings" menu from transaction /DVD/MON 
   
2. From the list of collector select collector for which you want to define parameter.

   
   

   
3. Double click on "Collector's parameters" tree menu.
4. Add new parameter into table. Parameter values are always bound to profiles.

   
   

   

BW module uses single profile HMBW_1DAY for execution of all its collectors. Therefore every parameter defined in this section should be created for this profile.
