1.7.1 Process monitoring with the health check function

When a process aborts or hangs, the health check function detects this as an error. The function determines whether a process is hung by comparing the length of time a process takes with the threshold set for that process. The time taken for the processing performed by a specific process is monitored via the shared memory.

The following figure provides an overview of the health check function.

Figure 1-20 Overview of the health check function

The health check function actually monitors the internal processes of the process being monitored to minimize the effects on the user environment. For this reason, the abnormal and warning thresholds are already set and no customization is required by the user.

The process for starting JP1/Base process management (jbs_service) and the startup control (jbapmsrvcecon) simply start or stop a service and are not monitored by the health check function. Because other programs use the Hitachi Network Objectplaza Trace Library (HNTRLib2) (hntr2mon), it is not monitored either.
