Tools for Ensemble Interfaces

World Wide TCP/IP Interface Monitor - Monitor up to 25 Ensemble sites and/or Ensemble instances simultaneously while also monitoring multiple Ensemble namespaces for each site as well. This monitor saves screen real estate, rather then using multiple TCP/IP Interface monitors that login remotely into multiple Ensemble sites via Citrix or some other remote login solution.

For the screen example below over 600 Interfaces are being monitored simultaneously on one screen (the IP Address is local, but it could be anywhere in the world).  Here all sites except Chicago are out of date and therefore red - the local times don't match the current time (local times converted to Greenwich Mean Time for time comparison with local time converted to GMT).  See settings screen print for GMT settings for each site.

Yellow Green Circle Icon - Inbound Interface

Blue Green Circle Icon - Outbound Interface

Red Circle Icon - Down interface with something in the queue (no connection or stopped queue) - chime rings until clicked on or the interface reconnects.

Red Check Mark Icon - Down interface has been clicked on.

Yellow Circle Icon - Outbound Interface with no connection and nothing in the queue (for Ensemble Interfaces only)

Purple Circle Icon - FTP Interface

Blue Circle Icon - File Interface

Larger Icon is the one clicked on and there is a short message indicating the name of the interface clicked on.  Details of the clicked on interface status are in the lower left. 

Combined view for multiple Ensemble instances/sites to monitor a very large number of interfaces on 1 screen - here over 1,400 interfaces. (View is selected from the upper right navigation dropdown from the default view of the World Wide Interface Monitor.  Background goes light red if the instance/site hasn't been updated for 2 minutes since there is no title to go red as in the default view.

Settings for the World Wide TCP/IP Interface Monitor.  Note that the job numbers are displayed when data is being sent out or received.  Whenever the settings are changed from "Y" to "N" the jobs are automatically terminated.  Whenever this page is accessed, all jobs are checked for each setting, as well as the background monitor which is needed to send current status to other Ensemble systems.

January 18, 2012 - added special interface name to show any down/suspended Ensemble productions in monitored namespaces (click on image to see details).
