23 Internet Directory Service

The Internet Directory Service monitors the availability, performance, and usage of the Identity Management Service.

23.1 LDAP Response

The LDAP Response Category gives you information about address search time, base search time, compare time, connect time, message search time, status and status message.


Note:

For target Version 1.0, the evaluation and collection frequency for each metric is every 15 minutes.

The following table lists the metrics and their descriptions.

Table 23-1 LDAP Response Metrics

Metric Description

[LDAP] Address Search Time (ms)

Time taken to search an address in the LDAP server. The search time is the value determined by the Beacon(s) monitoring this service. The Beacon(s) is(are) responsible for executing the perl script to ping the host and determine the total address search time. If multiple Beacons are monitoring this service, the value displayed is the average of all the values determined by all the Beacons.

[LDAP Base Search Time (ms)

Time taken to perform a base search. The search time is the value determined by the Beacon(s) monitoring this service. The Beacon(s) is(are) responsible for executing the perl script to ping the host and determine the total base search time. If multiple Beacons are monitoring this service, the value displayed is the average of all the values determined by all the Beacons.

[LDAP] Compare Time (ms)

Time taken to compare two files. The search time is the value determined by the Beacon(s) monitoring this service. The Beacon(s) is(are) responsible for executing the perl script to ping the host and determine the total compare time. If multiple Beacons are monitoring this service, the value displayed is the average of all the values determined by all the Beacons.

[LDAP] Connect Time (ms)

Time taken to connect to the LDAP server.

[LDAP] Message Search Time (ms)

Time taken to search a message in the LDAP server. The search time is the value determined by the Beacon(s) monitoring this service. The Beacon(s) is(are) responsible for executing the perl script to ping the host and determine the total message search time. If multiple Beacons are monitoring this service, the value displayed is the average of all the values determined by all the Beacons.

[LDAP] Status

Shows whether or not the Internet Directory Services are available

[LDAP] Status Message

Describes the status. If the status is "down", this metric describes why the LDAP server down.


23.2 LDAP Statistics

The LDAP Statistics Category gives you information about active data base sessions, directory operations, server load and the total LDAP logon sessions.


Note:

For target Version 1.0, the evaluation and collection frequency for each metric is every 15 minutes.

The following table lists the metrics and their descriptions.

Table 23-2 LDAP Statistics Metrics

Metric Description

Active Data Base Sessions

Number of sessions currently running on the LDAP Server. The value is the sum of all active database sessions on the LDAP agent monitored targets.

Directory Operations (last 15 min.)

Total number of directory operations performed on the LDAP Server. The value is the sum of all open TCP connections, all completed "add" operations, and all completed "bind" operations performed on all LDAP servers.

Server Load

Amount of load on the LDAP Server. The value is the average of total load on all LDAP servers.

Total LDAP Logon Sessions

Total number of connections on the LDAP Server. The value is the sum of all open TCP connections on all LDAP servers.


23.3 Response

The Response category checks and displays whether or not the Internet Directory Service is available.

23.3.1 Status

This metric displays the status of the LDAP Servers.

Metric Summary

The following table shows how often the metric's value is collected.

Target Version Collection Frequency
Version 1.0 Every 15 minutes

User Action

If the Status of Internet Directory Services is down, then check the results obtained by Root Cause Analysis on the Internet Directory Service Home Page.

23.4 Response Time

The Response Time category gives you information about LDAP average base search time.

23.4.1 LDAP Average Base Search Time (ms)

This metric shows the average time taken to perform a base search.

Metric Summary

The following table shows how often the metric's value is collected.

Target Version Collection Frequency
