AdventNet ManageEngine® Applications Manager Chapter 5.2 Database Servers |
||
Database servers are robust, enterprise-class database management system. Applications Manager provides Database Server monitoring that monitors database resources. This database server monitoring involves connecting to the database resource, collecting data, and representing its attribute details as graphs.
The following are the different Database servers supported by Applications Manager:
To create a MySQL database server Monitor, follow the given steps:
Click on New Monitor link.
Select MySQL DB Server.
Enter the IP Address or hostname of the host.
Enter the SubNetMask of the network.
Enter the port number in which MySQL is running.
Enter the polling interval time in minutes.
Provide the user name and password of user who has permission to access the MySQL database.
Specify the database name. Please note that the Database name must be valid. Also, the database name is associated with the user name. Hence, provide the database name corresponding to the user name given in the above field.
Choose the Monitor Group from the combo box with which you want to associate MySQL database server Monitor (optional).
Click Add Monitor(s). This discovers MySQL database server from the network and starts monitoring them.
|
Note: In the MySQL database (that you are trying to monitor), ensure that the user name assigned to Applications Manager has the permission to access the MySQL database from the host where Applications Manager is running. Else, give a relevant user who has the privileges to do the same. |

Follow the given steps to create a Oracle database server monitor:
Note: For you to create a new Oracle database monitor, you should have admin privileges. Minimum User Privileges -> user with CONNECT and SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE roles
Click on New Monitor link.
Select Oracle DB Server.
Enter the IP Address or hostname of the host.
Enter the SubNetMask of the network.
Enter the port number in which the Oracle is running.
Enter the polling interval time in minutes.
Provide the user name of the admin user ('system' is the default username) and its corresponding password.
Provide a valid System Identifier / Host Connection String.
Choose the Monitor Group from the combo box with which you want to associate Oracle database server Monitor (optional).
Click Add Monitor(s). This discovers Oracle database server from the network and starts monitoring them.
To create a MS SQL database server Monitor, follow the given steps:
Click on New Monitor link.
Select MS SQL DB Server.
Enter the IP Address or Hostname of the host.
Enter the SubNetMask of the network.
Enter the Port number in which the MS SQL is running.
Enter the Polling interval time in minutes.
Provide the User Name and Password of user who has permission to access the MS SQL database. The user name specified for collecting the data from MS SQL Server should have either System Administrator role or the user should be the DB owner for master database. Alternatively, you can provide the Windows Authentication details (give the User Name like domainname\username) also.
Choose the Monitor Group from the combo box with which you want to associate MS SQL database server Monitor (optional).
Click Add Monitor(s). This discovers MS SQL database server from the network and starts monitoring them.
|
Note: Minimum User Privileges : User should permitted to access MASTER
database & In MASTER database Roles : public + db_datareader should be selected
For MS SQL 2005 user role, Permit in Database Role : db_datareader & Requires VIEW SERVER STATE permission on the server
To grant VIEW SERVER STATE you can use any of the following methods :
1) Execute the following query,
2) In SQL management studio for user choose Properties -> Securables -> Click Add ( under securables ) -> choose "All objects of the Types..." -> choose Servers -> choose Grant for "View server state" permission. |
To create a IBM DB2 database server Monitor, follow the given steps:
Note: IBM DB2 ver.8 and ver.9 monitoring is supported. And also, you should
be able to access the SYSPROC procedures.
Click on New Monitor link.
Select DB2 DB Server.
Enter the IP Address or hostname of the host.
Enter the SubNetMask of the network.
Enter the port number in which DB2 is running.
Enter the polling interval time in minutes.
Provide the user name and password of user who has permission to access the DB2 database. The user name specified for collecting the data from DB2 Server should have either System Administrator role or the user should be the DB owner for master database.
Specify the Database Name.
Choose the Monitor Group from the combo box with which you want to associate DB2 database server Monitor (optional).
Click Add Monitor(s). This discovers DB2 database server from the network and starts monitoring them.
To create a Sybase database server Monitor, follow the given steps:
Note: Sybase ASE ver.12.5.3 and above monitoring is only supported.
Click on New Monitor link.
Select Sybase.
Enter the IP Address or Host Name of the host.
Enter the SubNetMask of the network.
Enter the port number in which sybase is running.
Enter the polling interval time in minutes.
Provide the user name and password of user who has permission to access the Sybase database. The user name specified for collecting the data from Sybase should have either System Administrator role or the user should be the DB owner for master database.
Specify the Database Name.
Choose the Monitor Group from the combo box with which you want to associate Sybase database server Monitor (optional).
Click Add Monitor(s). This discovers Sybase database server from the network and starts monitoring them.
If you have added Monitors and not associated them with a Monitor Group, you can do this manually anytime. For information on associating a Monitor with a Monitor Group, refer to Associating Monitor with Monitor Groups topic.
