DX Application Performance Management

Hi All,

In our environment, we don't have CEM hence we had very limited storage for APMDB as we were using APM 9.x. But now after 10.3 upgrade we see significant increase in APMDB size and it seems APM Team Center is storing those data. Like CEM retention settings, do we have retention settings for Team Center data as well?

Hi Mukesh,

I checked the configuration files and do not see any retention settings for team center.  Adding SergioMorales Lynn_Williams Hiko_Davis Guenter_Grossberger Chris_Kline for additional input.

Thanks,
Matt

Hi Mukesh,

Try this Tec Doc - https://www.ca.com/us/services-support/ca-support/ca-support-online/knowledge-base-articles.TEC1846866.html  -  if I interpret what you are reporting correctly I think it will help

cheers

Hi Mukesh:

    This may end up be an enhancement but it may help to know 

- Which tables/partitions and fields within those tables are large/growing?

We can then see what can be done today to trim the file manually/automatically

Thanks

Hi Mukesh:

    Awaiting to hear back if what Mike proposed is the issue or other tables are impacted. Please let us know the details requested. 

Thanks Hal German

Hi Mike, Hal,

I went through the KB and it is indeed helpful in controlling the db size

manually, will try to perform the steps on monday but I feel having a

property to control retention will be more convenient hence will open an

Idea for the same.

Thanks a lot

Mukesh

Hi Mukesh:

   Glad that the KB was of help.

Hi All,

The below KB suggested by Mike has fulfilled my requirement and it helps

control data retention of AppMap which is displayed in Team Center.

By default the property "introscope.apm.data.preserving.time" is set to 365

days and in my case APMDB was using 78% of the disk just for 2 months of

data because I have 4 APM Clusters connecting to one central postgres DB.

Using the above property in combination with few other properties in all

the clusters, my APMDB usage has gone below to 25%. Below are the settings

which I have used because I don't need TeamCenter data which is more than a

week.

introscope.apm.pruning.enabled=true

introscope.apm.pruning.cron.trigger.expression=0 0 6 * * ?

introscope.apm.data.agingTime=1 DAY

introscope.apm.data.preserving.time=6 DAYS

introscope.apm.data.obsolete.time=5 DAYS

Thanks Mike and everyone for your help

Regards,

Mukesh Singh
