Operations Dashboard Reference

The Operations Dashboard provides system administrators with a high-level operational view of the enterprise mobility management system. The dashboard aggregates the information to give administrators an overview of the system, which aids in operational support. Administrators can track individual statistics for servers to monitor performance and general operational efficiency.

• Logging in to the Operations Dashboard
  Log in to the Operations Dashboard to view and manage system configuration.
• Preferences
  Preferences are the standard mechanism for configuring applications. Use the Preferences option to manage operation-level configuration data such as timeouts, retries for communicating with other systems, and thread pool sizes.
• Jobs
  The Jobs option lets you schedule background jobs to run at certain times using the cron utility. For example, you can schedule a job to run at midnight to transfer commissions to the individual partners. You can also schedule a job to run every five minutes to generate new invoices. A cron daemon can retrieve jobs regularly from a database using the job handler name. The task makes sure that each job does not run in parallel multiple times, cancels jobs that are not responding, and synchronizes job execution across Java Virtual Machines (JVMs).
• Servers
  The Servers option displays a list of available servers. You can select a server that is online to view information, requests, data, channels, events, or tasks.
• Trackers
  The Trackers option lets you visually monitor system statistics through a series of charts, such as line, bar, and gauge. For example, memory usage is presented as a bar chart, and preauthorization of a transaction request is presented as a gauge chart.
• SOAP/REST Interface Management
  The Operations Dashboard presents Java Management Extensions (JMX) information, translates Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) requests into requests for local JMX platform objects and attributes, and sends them back as SOAP responses. The JMX interface can also be accessed via Representational State Transfer (REST), which returns either XML or JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) data.
