Sheet - Monitoring sequence

Standard sheet

A pre-configured sheet focusing on all the standard events named sequence-monitoring-all-alerts.xml is available in your Jeyzer installation inside the analyzer/config/report/sheet/sequence directory. It can be referenced in your report.xml.

Refer to the below sections for any customization, especially if you have adapted/instantiated the Jeyzer monitoring rules to match your needs.

Configuration

Specific sheet attributes :
type : must be set to monitoring_sequence
critical_tab_color : defines the tabulation color in case the sheets contains critical events. Defines also the color of the items count cell – for the current sheet entry – in the navigation sheet. Disabled by default.
link_type : the link acronym label and if when the sheet gets referenced from other ones (ex : Monitoring Events sheet).
Acronym must be composed of three letters. “Mon” is usually used.

The Monitoring sequence sheet contains the following configurable parts :

Monitoring rules
Headers
Row headers
Events
Charts

Monitoring rules

The monitoring rules and related stickers determine the list of events to display.
See the rules and stickers sections for the configuration details.

<rules>
  <rule_sets files="repo://base/@@base-shared-deps@@"/>
  <rule_set file="${JEYZER_DEMO_MASTER_PROFILES_DIR}/${JEYZER_TARGET_PROFILE}/monitor/rules/standard_rules.xml"/>
  <all_applicative_rules/>
  <dynamic_rule_sets declared_repository_only="true"/>
</rules>

<stickers>
   <sticker_set file="${JEYZER_DEMO_MASTER_PROFILES_DIR}/${JEYZER_TARGET_PROFILE}/monitor/stickers/demo_stickers.xml"/>
   <dynamic_sticker_sets declared_repository_only="true"/>
</stickers>

Headers

It has access to the same headers than the Task Sequence.
See Headers section.

Row headers

Row headers display data in relation with the monitoring events.

Row headers can get navigation links pointing to their event by setting the event_link to true.

<row_headers>
  <event_name event_link="true"/>
  <event_level/>
</row_headers>

Pane freeze
For readability convenience, the left pane is frozen automatically only if there is less than 5 row headers to display.
To change this behavior, you may either force/disable the freezing at the sheet configuration level.

<row_headers freeze="true">

Or change the global setting at the setup level in the config/setup/default_setup.xml.

<row_headers unfreeze_pane_threshold="5"/>

Threshold highlight
Row header numeric values can be highlighted in color when reaching a predefined threshold.
Threshold is optional and set to 70 when the row header is percentage based.

<event_size color="RGB-231-213-137" threshold="10"/>

Highlights
Highlights of specific values are supported
See the highlights section.

Row headers reference list

Name	Configuration id	Description
Duration	`event_duration`	Monitoring event duration in seconds
Event id	`event_id`	Unique event generation id
Level	`event_level`	Monitoring event level : INFO, WARNING, CRITICAL, ERROR ERROR level is Jeyzer Analyzer internal level in case of technical analysis issue. Ignore it.
Name	`event_name`	Monitoring event name
Rank	`event_rank`	Monitoring event rank Possible values : C[1-10], W[1-10], I[1-10], E[1-10]
Ref	`event_ref`	Monitoring event ref References the parent rule. Issued from the concatenation of the rule & threshold refs
Scope	`event_scope`	Monitoring event scope Possible values : stack, action, session, global, system ,analyzer
Snapshots	`event_size`	Number of recording snapshots related to the current event
Start date	`event_start_date`	Monitoring event start date
Sub level	`event_sub_level`	Monitoring event sub level Possible values : 1 to 10

Events

The events layout is following a Gantt chart mode.

Event display configuration is limited to the essential :

The cell value gives the summary of the issue which is the event name.
Applicative events are prefixed with “App /“
display rule : event_name

The cell background color indicates the event level.
A standard highlights block defines the list of level colors.
display rule : event_level

The cell comment gives the details of the event.
An applicative event will contain only the event code.
display rule : event_message

The cell can contain a link to the underlying action or recording snapshot.
display rule : event_link

It is recommended to use all the above display rules.

<display>
  <event_name/>
  <event_level>
    <highlights file="${JEYZER_ANALYZER_CONFIG_DIR}/report/highlights/monitoring-event-cell-levels.xml"/>
  </event_level>
  <event_message/>
  <event_link/>
</display>

The display configuration supports these generic formatting attributes.
