  • 1.  Web Server Config for Oracle iPlanet 7.0

    Hi Davis,

    Im having difficulty in setting up the power pack for Oracle iPlanet 7.0 Web sever. In the CA APM Webserver Guide they have mentioned as

    Add the following object to your obj.conf file after the default object:
    <Object name="perf">
    Service fn="service-dump"
    </Object>
    2. Add the following statement as the first line to the default object:
    NameTrans fn=assign-name from="/.perf" name="perf"

    But where we need to add this arguments. I have 20 Webserver instances in 1 server. there is a obj.conf file in folder "/opt/oracle/webserver70/admin-server/config" which is common for all instances. Is this the file we need to update or need to update in each instance.

    Would be very help full if you could send instructions or provide a document,

    Hi Bhuvanesh,

    If obj.conf file is common for all your instances then I believe that would be the only file where you have to add the content to publish statistics.

    Below is the example configuration :-

    <Object name="default">
    NameTrans fn=assign-name from="/.perf" name="perf"
    AuthTrans fn="match-browser" browser="*MSIE*"
    ssl-unclean-shutdown="true"
    NameTrans fn="ntrans-j2ee" name="j2ee"
    NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/mc-icons" dir="/opt/webserver7/lib/icons"
    name="es-internal"
    PathCheck fn="unix-uri-clean"
    PathCheck fn="find-pathinfo"
    PathCheck fn="find-index-j2ee"
    PathCheck fn="find-index" index-names="index.html,home.html,index.jsp"
    ObjectType fn="type-j2ee"
    ObjectType fn="type-by-extension"
    ObjectType fn="force-type" type="text/plain"
    Service method="(GET|HEAD)" type="magnus-internal/directory"
    fn="index-common"
    Service method="(GET|HEAD|POST)" type="*~magnus-internal/*"
    fn="send-file"
    Service method="TRACE" fn="service-trace"
    Error fn="error-j2ee"
    AddLog fn="flex-log"
    </Object>

    <Object name="perf">
    Service fn="service-dump"
    </Object>


    I have highlighted the content in bold that needs to be added. Try adding the content as above and see if it helps.

    Thanks,
    Sunil

    Hi Sunil,

    Thank you for the instructions, the obj conf file i had mentioned was web server level, but i have individual obj.conf file for each instance. So i updating it in the default obj.conf will reflect all instances in the server level.

    When configuring the webserver config file below, what is the server url we give.

    <WebServer Type="Sun-ONE:Sun-Java-System-Web-Server" Enabled="true" ServerURL="http://wily-sunjava7:89" DisplayName="Wily-Sun-70"/>

    I have 4 Web Server's containing 20 instances in each server, that are needed to be configured in this.
    my server name is https://mspeximtp01.phd.stc:8989 and there are 3 more similar server's.

    For SSL config, i don't see any non-permissible option for iPlanet and what are the certificates needed for this.

    Hi Bhuvanesh,

    Step 6 in the CA Application Performance Management for Web Servers Guide has the complete information you are looking for.


    There are two methods to let the CA APM for Web Servers know about the web servers that you want to monitor:

    ■ Configure the CA APM for Web Servers to auto-discover web servers

    ■ Manually configure the web servers to monitor in the WebServerConfig.xml file.


    Please go through it once & see if that answers your question.

    Thanks,
    Sunil
