  1. Check inbound file size < 10 kb

    The customer has a new BI process that collect data and send it to the CRM system.
    Sometime there are no data, the source system creates an “empty” file.
    The file is not empty because there is the header information, but no data.
    Customer asked me to create an alarm, if a file smaller than 10 kb would be found.
    I hoped to find this function into the Data Monitoring, but was not.
    I think this could be a good function for a future version.

  2. 24 hours Data monitoring with fixed time alert

    Actually in data monitoring, it is possible to schedule a 24h frequency monitor but we can't specify when the alert will be sent. By Example: Need to check if we receive a file for 24h and send the alert at 5hAM to call the support.

  4. Process monitoring Alarm on specific working days

    Is it possible to set up a process monitor alarm that we expect 1 file the 3 working day every month? We have a customer that runs the invoicing process every 3th working day every month. Is this possible in the new function? I have seen the possible to select a date in the month but not working Days.

  5. Email escalation policy

    If there are many cascading failures but what I am looking for is something that would either send out a reminder some time later if the system stays down for an extended period or escalate the alert if the recipient doesn't address the problem or is away on vacation.

  6. DR Log Shipping Alerts

    Is there any easy way of monitoring the status on the BTS Server Log Shipping Restore Databases job on the DR SQL instance so we can raise alerts if it fails?

    We have a client who has a cluster on both the production and DR side so 4 SQL servers total.

    I suggested we could set up alerting based on an SQL query but was wondering if there’s a simpler way.

  9. Offical SCOM MP (sealed) to monitor events and service from BizTalk360

    We have incidents when BizTalk360 looses the connection to database because of network issues, during updates or maintenance windows. During those it have happened that the BizTalk360 service do not start, and I have no idea that the service was actually stopped until the customer (how manage the flow in the application) calls and says they aren't receiving e-mails.
    We already have the IIS MP, so that are monitored. I asked my SCOM guy to create some rules (alerts) of the Event ID's I have found and monitoring the service.
    But I would like to make a feature request to…

  10. Auto-correct email improvements

    Autocorrect feature works correctly but the auto correction email message displays “Critical” status in the summary. The summary message should display the final correction status along with prior status.

    Also, the auto correction fix message displays under the “Issues of application name”. There should be new paragraph saying “Issues fixed:”

  12. Filtering capabilities in Alert History

    From time to time I find myself wandering through the Alert History. At that times I often miss the capability to:

    Being able to see all records in the Alert History.
    Have filtering capabilities like we know from Message Box queries and Graphical Flow.
    Being able to show the actual mail which is being sent (I noticed this is in the database).

  13. Data Monitoring Suggestion

    I am configuring some Data Monitoring Alerts in BizTalk360 and have run into a snag. In my Test environment, we have crafted an ESB Exception for our Gibsons.FIN.Transactions BizTalk Application and have a Fault Category of ProcessCOACacheMisses. However when I am configuring this Data Monitoring alert in Production, I don’t have this Fault Category yet as it is a new application. I would imagine you are performing a DISTINCT SQL Query on the field and populating the dropdown with these values. It would be nice to override and provide my own text as now I have to wait for that…

  15. Alerting per Suspended Instance

    The requirement is that the customer wants to receive an alert each time a message or instance got suspended. So this is a bit like an event driven approach.
    Applications
    Say you have an alert for Suspended Instances with a Warning threshold of (more than) 0 and an Error threshold of (more than) 5. This would result in getting a notification when:
    a. nothing is suspended yet and
    b. a Message or Instance got suspended
    This is because the Warning threshold is set to (more than) 0. As far as I am aware of, the next notification you would get…

  16. UP alerts beyond the restricted time in Threshold alert

    As we have some of the alerts running only office hours (8am-5pm) we sometimes note the following scenario:

    1. An error occurs at 3 pm.
    2. An alert email DOWN is sent out to ICC and on-call personnel immediately.
    3. The error is fixed 6 pm.
    4. No UP email is sent to ICC and on-call personnel due to the 8-5 limit.

    Somehow it would feel more safe to receive the UP email, even if the schedule should not be active at that time. The way it is today, we that receive the alerts are "supposed to have knowledge" of the schedules on every…

  17. Monitoring dashboard improvements on green /red lights

    The test was to stop IIS. Simulation of web server crash, malfunction or network error. We performed an IIS Stop service only. No stop of biztalk360 service.

    The results: The client browsers keep having the service status green flashing light at top right corner of the Dashboard monitoring portal. And the monitoring icon on the top left turned red saying that the service monitoring service is stopped (which is wrong).

    So, on the upper left (blue left panel with the menu), that a red light appeared beside the icons monitoring and analytics. The red light beside monitoring is saying that…

  18. Alarm to configure and monitor on banking holidays

    When creating an alarm and configuring the days of the week and the daily times to monitor a resource, is it possible to specify banking holidays? The customer wants to avoid breaking changes when new versions are released, and so may allow exception cases where they receive notifications we shouldn’t.

  19. Enabling another receive location automatically with a different address

    If we had a receive port on a location that went down and it failed the retries for auto healing, is there a way of enabling another receive location automatically with a different address much in the same way that the Backup transport works inside the send port. I am asking this question so I can have an alternative solution to clustering the receive location.

  20. Data monitoring with arbitrary interval

    I've been informed by BizTalk 360 support that BizTalk 360 currently does not support data monitoring with arbitrary interval, say 7.5 days(180 hours). It would be nice to have this enhancement.
