Monitoring Address Manager health using the metrics services
By default, the Address Manager metrics service is enabled and collects information related to appliance, infrastructure, database, APIv2 usage, and notifications. You can navigate to the different tabs within the Dashboards page to view additional information about Address Manager health.
If you are using the metrics exporter service, you can monitor multiple metrics using
your observability platform. For more information on the statistics that are
available for export to an observability platform, refer to the following topics:
Monitoring Address Manager health using SNMP
When monitoring BAM using SNMP, BlueCat recommends polling the following SNMP Objects to monitor the health of the system.
Each BAM MIB (management information base) OID (object identifier) begins with the following prefix of network management object identifiers:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.13315
That represent
iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprise.bluecatnetworks.
Note: The following table is not an exhaustive list of available
SNMP MIBs. For more information of all SNMP MIBs available in BAM, refer to Address Manager polled objects .
| SNMP Object | OID | Description |
|---|---|---|
| .startTime | .100.210.1.1.1.0 | BAM application start-up date and time |
| .version | .100.210.1.1.2.0 | BAM version |
| .maxPoolSize | .100.210.1.2.1.0 | Maximum number of database connections maintained at a given time |
| .numConnections | .100.210.1.2.2.0 | Number of database connections currently in use |
| .replicationStatusTable | .100.210.1.8.8 | Note: Only applies to BAMrunning database
replication.
Information about servers in replication. The
object returns a table that contains a list of Standby servers with
their associated hostname, IPv4 address, the current latency (in
seconds), the replication health, and the replication role.
