Job Server Statistic Information

This Job server statistic data is evaluated and creates a basis for configuration recommendations for Job server load intervals. The data for the last 100 days is included in the calculation of the configuration recommendations. You should take these recommendations into account when configuring One Identity Manager Service.

To find statistics

• Set the configuration parameter "Common\JobQueueStats" in the Designer.
• Set the Designer configuration parameter "Common\JobQueueStats\MaxAge" and enter the retention period for the statistics (in days).

New statistics are created for the Job server by each action in the Job queue (such as, adding, changing or deleting processes). The DBQueue Processor task QBMJobQueueStatsShrink compresses the statistics. The compression takes place for every hour prior to the current hour.

To display Job server statistics

1. Select the category Base Data | Installation | Job server in the Designer.
2. Start the Job Server Editor using the task Edit job server.
3. Select the Job server to edit in the Job server overview.
4. Select the columns with statistic information using Select columns... in the context menu.

   These columns are highlighted in the color in the view.

   Table 191: Columns for Displaying Statistic Information

   Column	Name	Meaning
   AverageLoad	Average processes/hour	Average number of processes per hour.
   MaxLoad	Maximum processes/hour	Maximum number of processes per hour.
   LoadDuration	Recommended load interval (seconds)	Configuration recommendation for the parameter "StartInterval" in the One Identity Manager Service configuration.
   StatisticsDuration	Recommended statistic interval (seconds)	Configuration recommendation for the parameter "StatisticInterval" in the One Identity Manager Service configuration.
