Application Edition Management Seamlessupgrades from one version to the next… What is Application Edition Management? − Seamless upgrades without interruption − Deploy new applications easily − Test specific version with a select group of users Benefits − Easy validation of new versions − Supports “rolling” upgrades − More agile and flexible deployments − Concurrent activation − Upgrade applications without incurring outages Keeping critical business apps up and running
- 20. Health Management –Preventive Action Avoids Outages Sense and respond to problems before end users suffer an outage Proactively deal with application issues before they become acute problems … automatically Administrative policies for health conditions and associated corrective actions − Examples: Memory leaks, slow response times etc… Provides insight! Results In: − Better availability − Less administration − Satisfied end users
- 21. Health Management –Health Policies Helps mitigate common health problems before outages occur Health policies can be defined for common server health conditions Health Policy: If (Condition) then (Action) e.g: • Notify administrator (send email or SNMP trap) • Capture diagnostics (generate heap dump, java core) • Restart server Custom health actions are commands or scripts Excessive response time means you are monitoring what matters most: your customer's experience! Each health policy can be in supervise or automatic mode. Supervise mode is like training wheels to allow you to verify that a health policy does what you want before making it automatic. Health Conditions • Excessive request timeouts: % of timed out requests • Excessive response time: average response time • Excessive garbage collection: % of time spent in GCs • Excessive memory: % of maximum JVM heap size • Age-based: amount of time server has been running • Memory leak: JVM heap size after garbage collection • Storm drain: significant drop in response time • Workload: total number of requests
