MONITORING

Directory Probes
A directory probe monitors whether LDAP is configured and running correctly on IBM® Lotus® Domino® servers and reports on the use and overall health of the domain's directories.

The Directory -- Directory Availability probe monitors the primary Domino Directory, remote primary Domino Directory (configuration-only databases), local server-based condensed directory catalogs, cascaded local directories, secondary IBM® Lotus® Notes® directories, and secondary LDAP directories.

The algorithm used in the Directory -- LDAP View Update Algorithm probe can be temporarily overridden by the LDAPBatchAdds NOTES.INI setting.

This table contains the names and descriptions of the Directory probes that you can define.

Directory Probe name Description

Directory -- Directory Availability Monitors the availability of all directories being served by the server and reports any errors. The probe also reports on namesake update issues and local LDAP server issues.

Directory -- Directory Catalog Aggregation Schedule Based on the Directory Catalog task schedule, this probe subtype monitors missed aggregations and aggregations in progress longer than expected.

Directory -- Directory Catalog Creation Monitors the Directory Catalog task process of creating directory catalogs by aggregating source directories into destination directory catalogs.

Directory -- Directory Indexer Process State Monitors whether the Directory Indexer task is running.

Directory -- LDAP Process State Monitors whether the LDAP process is running.

Directory -- LDAP Search Response Monitors the server's average search response time for LDAP searches. You may choose to monitor all searches executed on the server or limit monitoring to only the longest running searches stored in LDAP Server memory. Choosing the longest running searches option provides additional details on searches so they can be identified and addressed.

Directory -- LDAP TCP Port Health Monitors whether LDAP is listening on its ports and responding promptly.

Directory -- LDAP View Update Algorithm Monitors the LDAP view-update algorithm that is being used by the server.

Directory -- NAMELookup Search Response Monitors the average search response time of all NAMELookups performed on the server.

Directory -- Secondary LDAP Search Response Monitors the average search response time of searches of secondary LDAP servers that are performed on the server.
