We plan to use the Monitoring Dashboard on a wallboard, and would like to use the collapsed view of the Monitoring Dashboard. So that the reserved for tree views of BizTalk servers, SQL Server Instances, and BizTalk Environment will be hidden and we can able to monitor the BizTalk applications alone.

Application monitoring – manage mapping:
When selecting artifacts for monitoring, the selection disappears after clicking expected state, auto correct or remove orphaned.
It would be nice to keep the selection for next steps to be taken.

Server monitoring – manage mappings:
When creating an event log alert, there is no option to distinguish between the different types of event levels (critical, warning, error, information).

The information provided in Data Monitoring Dashboard is enough.

The schedules I configured to monitor the reception of at least 1 file (>0). Even though Condition is showing ‘Greater Than’ I think Expected Count should also show ‘>0’ to be more accurate in the Process monitoring execution result page at Process monitoring dashboard.

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.

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.

We understand Email alerts will be sent only when the count is back to zero when number of alerts reaches its limit. In future versions, we hope independent email configuration for all the ports regardless of alert count with other port failures.

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.

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.

Can I make a suggestion to make the 10 second timeout variable somewhere. We have some queries which deliver between 9-11 seconds but are at peak performance.

Hello!

Is it possible to have the same evaluation criteria in BAM monitor as there is in process Monitor?
Ø in process Monitor > = <

Ø in BAM > =

In the Custom SQL Queries panel, customer has defined a query, with the "EXEC" and calling a store procedure and it works very well. The query returns only one integer value. This is put (that call a store procedure) in the Database Query related with an alarm. But in the Database Query, the return value is empty. It seems to not get the return value? So the alarm is always in error. Hence the database query put into an alarm must support the call of a stored procedure.

The requirement is to have a certain receive location to be disabled on weekends. BizTalk only has everyday ability for this.

Currently Data Monitoring dashboard monitors are listed as per processed time. Where the data monitoring dashboard needs to be listed according to the monitor names.

By Mike Walsh

it could be very useful to we could produce a report of all alarm detail settings
