      Hi,

      On the Back End Reporting, by default EJB and JDBC events are captured and alerted. This is useful. But there are options like File Read, File Write and Web Service calls on the Back End Reports. We enabled these options for the Managed Server but none of these events are captured or displayed in those reports. But while restarting the Managed Server, if we include this JVM option,
      “-XX:FlightRecorderOptions=defaultrecording=true”
      Then I am able see all those File Read and File Write events are displayed and alerted. After removing the JFR default recording, then no events are captured. Is there any option or config we need? The downside of keeping the defaultrecording ON is that the Managed Server generates the JFR recording and the disk space grows exponentially which we don’t want.

      Thanks,
      Jeba.

        Hi @jeba,

        WLSDM back-end configuration depends on WebLogic and JVM JFR configuration and follows their rules.

        So you can increase the detail level of JFR recording by using WebLogic or JVM parameters.

        And we added a new feature to current WLSDM version to handle the repository issue:

        if you add the following option to your JVM, WLSDM will handle the JFR files and keeps only last 24 hours data.

        -XX:FlightRecorderOptions=repository=WLSDM/temp/JFR

        Regards.

          Hi Jeba,

          We analyzed your WebLogic monitoring request again and here our solution offer.

          1. Please remove “-XX:FlightRecorderOptions=defaultrecording=true”, you do not need this option while using WLSDM.
          2. If you still want to see File/Socket events you should increase your WLDF Diagnostic volume on WebLogic.
            Go to “Servers > $ManageServerName > General (tab)” page and set “Diagnostic Volume” high. Then you are able to see file read/write events.

          Note: This option means additional overhead on your managedservers; just activate only one managedserver which file read/write monitoring is important.

          1. Keep your file and socket read/write definitions on WLSDM.

          Restart your managed server (it is needed after JVM parameter removing).

          This is the best setup for monitoring your file/socket events. By this configuration you will not face any disk problem. Because; WLSDM will take care of JFR files.

          Regards…
