Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite User's Guide Release 4.0 Part Number E18709-01 | ![]() Contents | ![]() Previous | ![]() Next |
The Concurrent Processing Dashboard provides you with details in concurrent processing in your Oracle E-Business Suite system. The dashboard gives you a complete picture of concurrent processing on your system, both current activity as well as usage statistics.
You can add a user-defined concurrent program as a target to the Oracle E-Business Suite composite target. You can then monitor related activities of the registered individual concurrent programs for your own specified thresholds.
You can also add a user-defined concurrent manager as a target to the Oracle E-Business Suite composite target. You can then monitor related activities of the registered individual concurrent managers for your own specified thresholds.
The Concurrent Processing Dashboard is available from the Performance tab of the main Administration Dashboard, under Concurrent Processing.
The General region lists the status of the Concurrent Processing Service
Status - The status is linked to the Concurrent Processing Service home page.
Active Service Processes - Number of active service processes.

Target Name - Enter in a target name "suffix". The actual target name will be composed of the Target Name Prefix (above) and the value of this field.
Target Type - The system automatically provides the value "Custom Oracle Concurrent Program".
Concurrent Program Short Name - Use the LOV icon to search for and select the program short name. In searching for the program name you can search by concurrent program short name, concurrent program name, or application.
Monitoring Host
For the Basic Properties region, values for the following should default in. These values are used as credentials by the target for metrics collection:
SID
Machine
Port
(Database) User name
(Database) Password
ConnectString
For metrics collection, you need to define the thresholds for several metrics. Define instance parameters that will be used to categorize requests for the following:
A request will be termed Long Pending if it is in Pending status for longer than the "Long Pending Request Threshold In Minutes".
A request will be considered Long Running if it runs for longer than the "Long Running Request Threshold In Minutes" and (1+0.1*"Long Running Tolerance Percentage")*Average Running Time of the Concurrent Program.
When you are done, click Add to add the target.
Once you have added a custom concurrent program target, you can monitor metrics for it.
From the main Administration Dashboard, click on Configured Components under Related Links. Your custom concurrent program target should be listed. Click on its name link to view details.

AMP allows you to define parameters for long running and long pending requests. Follow the procedure to do so.
Navigate to the following from the main Administration Dashboard: Performance tab > Concurrent Processing Dashboard > [Concurrent Manager named link] under Components > Edit Oracle Concurrent Manager (link).
Enter in values for these fields:
Long Pending Request Threshold in Minutes
Long Running Request Threshold in Minutes
Long Running Tolerance Percentage
The three parameters above are instance parameters for categorizing a request as long running or long pending.
A request will be considered long pending if it is pending for more than the "Long Pending Threshold in Minutes" value.
A request will be considered long running if it runs for more than the "Long Running Request Threshold in Minutes" value AND for longer than (1 + 0.01*[Long Running Tolerance Percentage]*[Average Running Time of the Concurrent Program]).
After you have set these parameters, you can go to the All Metrics page to see these categories listed. Navigate to the All Metrics page from the Concurrent Processing Dashboard > All Metrics link (under Related Links).
For Long Pending Requests, the following details are available through drilling down:
