I was doing a little reading on watchworx and it looks like it will do
some things that we've been needing. Basically we need to monitor the
entire Applications Manager application and restart it if it goes down,
however we also need to monitor things like specific agents to see if
they are stopped. There's more but those are a couple good examples.
My questions. Is there any extra licensing fees for watchworx? I found
the sections on watchworx in the online documentation, is there any
other helpful documentation you can point me to. I've searched and will
continue searching the communities as well.
There is no license for WatchWorx it's licensed with Applications Manager. It will monitor the RmiServer, and AgentService processes, and restart them if they go down abnormally. You can also monitor Agent logging events, and Task logging events. This is documented in the Administration Guide. Here is a link to the documentation on Logging Agent Events, and Task Events.
