10 Collaboration Suite Search

10.1 CollabSuiteSearchStats Metrics

This category contains the metrics used to approximate the responsiveness of search queries as experienced by an end-user.

Note:

For all target versions, the collection frequency for each metric is every 5 minutes.

The following table lists the metrics and their descriptions.

Table 10-1 CollabSuiteSearchStats Metrics

Metric	Description
Average Search Time (ms)	Approximates the average click-to-render response time, in milliseconds, of searches performed. This is a useful indication of the average response time experienced by end-users.
Average Search Time (seconds)	See Section 10.1.1, "Average Search Time (seconds)"
Current Active Search Requests	Represents the number of search requests that were active (ongoing) at the time of metric collection. This is a good indication of how busy the Search application is.
Host	Hostname on which the Search application resides.
Maximum Search Time (ms)	Approximates the maximum click-to-render response time, in milliseconds, of searches performed. This is a useful indication of the maximum response time experienced by end-users.
Maximum Search Time (seconds)	Approximates the maximum click-to-render response time, in seconds, of searches performed. This is a useful indication of the maximum response time experienced by end-users.
Minimum Search Time (ms)	Approximates the minimum click-to-render response time, in milliseconds, of searches performed. This is a useful indication of the minimum response time experienced by end-users.
Minimum Search Time (seconds)	Approximates the minimum click-to-render response time, in seconds, of searches performed. This is a useful indication of the average response time experienced by end-users.
Name	Name of the Search application
Process	Process associated with the Search application
Total Search Requests Completed	Total number of searches that have been performed. This metric is cumulative, and resets only when the associated OC4J instance is restarted.

10.1.1 Average Search Time (seconds)

This metric approximates the average click-to-render response time, in seconds, of searches performed. This is a useful indication of the average response time experienced by end-users.

Metric Summary

The following table shows how often the value of the metric is collected and compared against the default thresholds. The 'Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification' column indicates the consecutive number of times the comparison against thresholds should hold TRUE before an alert is generated.

Table 10-2 Metric Summary Table

Target Version	Evaluation and Collection Frequency	Upload Frequency	Operator	Default Warning Threshold	Default Critical Threshold	Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification	Alert Text
All Versions	Every 5 Minutes	After Every Sample	>	50	60	2	%target%, average search response time is unacceptably slow - %value% seconds

Multiple Thresholds

For this metric you can set different warning and critical threshold values for each "Full Name" object.

If warning or critical threshold values are currently set for any "Full Name" object, those thresholds can be viewed on the Metric Detail page for this metric.

To specify or change warning or critical threshold values for each "Full Name" object, use the Edit Thresholds page. See Editing Thresholds for information on accessing the Edit Thresholds page.

10.2 Response

This category contains the metrics used to approximate the availability of the Search application.

10.2.1 UpDown Status

This metric indicates whether or not the associated OC4J instance of the Search application is running. A down status indicates that either the OC4J instance has been shut down, or an error has occurred that is preventing it from starting up.

Metric Summary

The following table shows how often the value of the metric is collected and compared against the default thresholds. The 'Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification' column indicates the consecutive number of times the comparison against thresholds should hold TRUE before an alert is generated.

Table 10-3 Metric Summary Table

Target Version	Evaluation and Collection Frequency	Upload Frequency	Operator	Default Warning Threshold	Default Critical Threshold	Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification	Alert Text
All Versions	Every Minute	After Every Sample	=	Not Defined	0	1	%target%, the associated OC4J instance is down

The OPMN logs should be examined to determine if the associated OC4J instance is failing for a particular reason.

10.3 SearchPerformance Metrics

This category contains the metrics used to approximate the responsiveness of search queries performed by the application searchlets against their respective backend repositories.

Note:

For all target versions, the collection frequency for each metric is every 5 minutes.

The following table lists the metrics and their descriptions.

Table 10-4 SearchPerformance Metrics

Metric	Description
Average Backend Search Time (ms)	Approximates the average backend response time of searches performed. It is a measure of how quickly search results are obtained from the individual searchlets querying their respective backend repositories. Units are in milliseconds.
Average Backend Search Time (seconds)	See Section 10.3.1, "Average Backend Search Time (seconds)".
Current Active Backend Search Requests	Number of active backend search requests that have not yet completed at the time of metric collection. This is a good indication of how busy the Search application is.
Host	Hostname on which the search application resides.
Maximum Backend Search Time (ms)	Approximates the maximum backend response time of searches performed. It is a measure of how quickly search results are obtained from the individual searchlets querying their respective backend repositories. Units are in milliseconds.
Maximum Backend Search Time (seconds)	Approximates the maximum backend response time of searches performed. It is a measure of how quickly search results are obtained from the individual searchlets querying their respective backend repositories. Units are in seconds.
Minimum Backend Search Time (ms)	Approximates the minimum backend response time of searches performed. It is a measure of how quickly search results are obtained from the individual searchlets querying their respective backend repositories. Units are in milliseconds
Minimum Backend Search Time (seconds)	Approximates the minimum backend response time of searches performed. It is a measure of how quickly search results are obtained from the individual searchlets querying their respective backend repositories. Units are in seconds.
Name	Name of the Search application
Process	Process associated with the Search application
Total Backend Search Requests Completed	Total number of backend searches that have been performed. This metric is cumulative, and resets only when the associated OC4J instance is restarted

10.3.1 Average Backend Search Time (seconds)

This metric approximates the average backend response time of searches performed. It is a measure of how quickly search results are obtained from the individual searchlets querying their respective backend repositories. Units are in seconds.

Metric Summary
