Data monitoring could not ended at midnight
It is not possible to end a data process monitoring at 12h00am (midnight). Let say we want to monitor 7h00pm until 12h00am, the web interface got an error: "The end time should be atleast 15 mins later than the start time.". We have to set 23h45 or 00:15. So it is impossible to get a result at 12h00am.
If we set 23h45, we don't have the last 15 minutes of the day included in the monitoring. If we set 00h15, the first 15 minutes of the new day is part of the new day, not the last day.
So our…4 votesHi,
BizTalk360 now supports business hours to span across the day for monitoring. Say you can monitor from 7 PM to 12 AM.

Data monitoring custom time
New Message Box data monitoring tool – This new feature to perform actions is great allowing automatically messages to be resumed or terminated. The only issues with that is the minimum frequency we can set is only to 15 minutes and it would be perfect if we are allowed to set lower values like seconds or 1 minute for example. Also the option to send or not a notification for that as sometimes we don’t need the email and the last suggestion is to add the port name as a filter for that as sometimes we only would like to…

BizTalk360 now supports a Data Monitoring frequency of fewer than 15 mins. You can configure a minimum frequency of 5 mins.

Don't save results for 'Do not monitor' artifacts
We have quite a lot of servers, and thus quite a few artifacts we monitor. However, we have way more artifacts (NTServices, SQL jobs, etc.) that we do not monitor. But I notice these artifacts still add rows to the table b360alertMonitor_LogStateCheck (with ExpectedState 2). This gives us a lot of useless rows in this table for things we don't want to monitor anyway. Is there a way to turn this off? We now have 17 million rows in this table, and we only keep this data for a week (the cleanup job works fine).
I can write…3 votesHi ,
New State called 'UnMapped' is introduced to maintain the artifacts which are not mapped for monitoring. Now the entries are not updated in the LogStateCheck table.

API to create/update an alarm
Is there an API available that will allow me to create/update an alarm?
We have built a .Net based deployment tool that takes care of all of our deployments and it would be good if we could tie in the Alarm create/update for new artefacts as part of this process.

Data Monitoring File Size
Would be nice to add additional Filter possibility, not only based on the number of file received, but also on the file size. At a customer site we have a WS Request that sometimes receives a wrong response. This response is much more smaler than the expected. Would be nice if I could configure an alarm if the file size is below a kb value.
24 votesHi, Our latest version 10.8 introduces the capability to monitor the message size transmitted between the receive location and the send port. You can now configure the expected size in process monitoring, and if the message size violates the specified threshold configuration, it will trigger an alert.
Check out the release notes for more updates.

New feature requests on Autocorrect
I have couple of new feature requests for BizTalk360.
- Receive Location/Send Port/Orchestration - Auto Correct (set time)
- Option to configure BizTalk360 to try to auto correct artifacts in scheduled time (every 1 hour 5 times).
- Use case: BizTalk Receive Location A goes in disabled state. BizTalk360 tries to auto correct Receive Location 5 times and fails to restart port. Alarm email is sent to monitoring person, but it is night time and person is not available to react on alarm email. Receive Location stays disabled until monitoring person comes to work etc. and activates Receive Location manually.
…Solution: Set time
2 votesAutocorrect reset capability will solve this use case.
It is implemented in the latest versions of BizTalk360. -

Add option to check FTP connection every specific period
Currently we have setup a datamonitoring for most of our external FTP partners as like a HeartBeat mechanism. However some our partners are not that amused if we connect every 2 minutes to their FTP environment.
Therefore would it be great if we additionally could specify the interval when a check should be done.
IE not the just the number of second, but a set like every 15/30/60 minutes etc!2 votesHi ,
BizTalk360 allows user to manage the polling interval , system will check the monitoring status only with the configured frequency . This can be configured under environment settings.

Monitoring for Always On Instances
With BizTalk 2016 you have the possibility to configure the DB with Always On. Because of MSDTC you have to create at least 4 instances and to create the BizTalk Db in these instances. At the moment in BizTalk360 you can only monitor 2, this should be now changed to allow a better control of all bts DB.

Mass remove orphaned feature
Hi,
When we monitor a lot of artefacts and after an import of an alarm exported from another environment, we have sometimes a lot of orphaned items.
It could be very helpful to have, in the import process, a way to remove all orphaned at the same time. Otherwise, we need to go into each application, go on send ports/receive ports/orchestrations, ...2 votesHi ,
In the latest version of BizTalk360, the orphaned artifacts will not be imported to the destination environment. The list of orphaned artifact details will be listed in the import status.
