C.3. BEA WebLogic 6.x and higher
The probes in this section (with the exception of JDBC Connection Pool) can be configured
to monitor the properties of any BEA WebLogic 6.x and higher server (Administration or
Managed) running on a given host, even in a clustered environment. Monitoring of a cluster
is achieved by sending all SNMP queries to the Administration Server of the domain and
then querying its Managed Servers for individual data.
In order to obtain this higher level of granularity, the BEA Domain Admin Server pa-
rameter must be used to differentiate between the Administration Server receiving SNMP
queries and the Managed Server undergoing the specified probe. If the host to be probed
is the Administration Server, then the BEA Domain Admin Server parameter can be left
blank, and both the SNMP queries and the probe will be sent to it only.
If the host to be probed is a Managed Server, then the IP address of the Administration
Server should be provided in the BEA Domain Admin Server parameter, and the Man-
aged Server name should be included in the BEA Server Name parameter and appended
to the end of the SNMP Community String field. This causes the SNMP queries to be
sent to the Administration Server host, as is required, but redirects the specific probe to the
Managed Server host.
It should also
probes run against
community_prefix@managed_server_name in order for the SNMP query to
return results for the desired Managed Server. Finally, SNMP must be enabled on each
monitored system. SNMP support can be enabled and configured through the WebLogic
Console.
Please see the documentation that came with your BEA server or information on the BEA
website for more details about BEA's community string naming conventions: http://e-
