SAP BusinessObjects - Monitoring Parameters
Here you will find detailed information about monitoring parameters for SAP BusinessObjects monitored objects.
Monitoring parameters are the mechanism for you to configure how your systems are monitored. They are how you set configuration of how the agent runs, how checks are executed, thresholds for checks (when does a check go critical or warning) and much more. All Monitoring Parameters have a carefully chosen default value. As soon as you add a new system, Avantra uses these defaults. You may change these defaults by defining a parameter and by modifying its values. Monitoring Parameters can be defined for a single system, or for collections of systems using Monitoring Parameter Sets. You can also define your own Custom Monitoring Parameters for use within Custom Checks and automations.
BoJobsSelectRange
Specify the number of days from which the BO_Jobs check selects checks.
BoJobsSelectRange can be used to specify a range of days back from the current moment that is applied to select jobs. That is, the default value is 1 day, so all jobs that have been executed within the last 24 hours are selected by default.

Unit |
Days |
BoJobStatTimeSpan
Specify the time window from which the BO_JobStat check selects checks.
BoJobStatTimeSpan can be used to specify a time range back from the current moment that is applied to select jobs. That is, the default value is 60 minutes, so all jobs that have been executed within the last 60 minutes are selected by default.

Unit |
Hours |
BoLogExprCrit
Define the expression to determine CRITICAL log entries in BO_Logs check.
This expression is used to process log entries from the SAP BusinessObjects log files. If an entry matches this expression, the BO_Logs check will become CRITICAL.

Default Value |
|
Unit |
String |
BoLogExprWarn
Define the expression to determine WARBUBG log entries in BO_Logs check.
This expression is used to process log entries from the SAP BusinessObjects log files. If an entry matches this expression, the BO_Logs check will become WARNING.

Default Value |
|
Unit |
String |
BoLogGroups
Specify log file name patterns for SAP BusinessObjects log files to be examined.
This parameter allows you to define a list of name patterns to narrow the list of log files that need to be examined by the BO_Logs check. Wildcards (*, ?) are allowed; different patterns must be separated by commas.
Configures | |
Default Value |
empty (all log files) |
Unit |
String |
BoLogsTimeSpan
Define the time window over which log entries from various SAP BusinessObjects log files are examined.
BoLogsTimeSpan can be used to define a time window in which the BO_Logs check examines the log entries back from the current moment. As an example, the default value is 60 minutes, so only log entries that have been written in the past 60 minutes are examined.
A side effect of this parameter is that it defines the time span a certain log entry is visible for the BO_Logs check. When an entry causes the check to become CRITICAL, the check will remain CRITICAL as long as the status is considered in the evaluation, i.e. during the time span.
The parameter is active for all examined log files.

60 |
Unit |
Minutes |
BoProcessesOrphans
Determine if orphaned processes are considered in the BO_Processes check.
This parameter lets you select if orphaned processes (parent process id = -1) are considered for calculating the check result.
Configures | |
Default Value |
include (orphaned processes are considered) |
Unit |
Enum, either |
BoServersExclude
Define a list of patterns to exclude servers from being considered in the BO_Servers check.
This parameter allows you to define a denylist of server names / patterns to be excluded from the evaluation by the BO_Servers check. Wildcards may be used (*, ?), patterns must be separated by commas.
Configures | |
Default Value |
empty (no excluded servers) |
Unit |
String |
BoServersInclude
Define a list of patterns to define servers to be considered in the BO_Servers check.
This parameter allows you to define a allow list of server names / patterns to be considered in the BO_Servers check. Only servers matching the allow list will be considered. Wildcards may be used (*, ?), patterns must be separated by commas.
Configures | |
Default Value |
empty (all servers are included) |
Unit |
String |
BoServersStoppedStatus
Configures BO_Servers check.
This parameter allows to define the status if any server is enabled but stopped.
Configures | |
Default Value |
Critical |
Unit |
Enum, either Critical, Warning, or OK |
BoSystemRootDirectory
Define the system root directory of the SAP BusinessObjects installation.
This parameter force overwrites the automatically detected system root of a SAP BusinessObjects installation. For example, on Unix installations, this should point to the ../<sid>/sap_bobj
folder.
