Monitoring a Folder of Objects

You can view properties and statistics about objects in a folder that appears in the Navigator of the Execution Statistics view. You can select one of the following folders: Jobs, Deployed Mapping Jobs, Logical Data Objects, SQL Data Services, Web Services, or Workflows.
You can apply a filter to limit the number of objects that appear in the contents panel. You can create custom filters based on a time range. Custom filters allow you to select particular dates and times for job start times, end times, and elapsed times. Custom filters also allow you to filter results based on multiple filter criteria.
    1. In the Administrator tool, click the Monitor tab.
    2. Click the Execution Statistics view.
    3. In the Domain Navigator, select the folder.
    The contents panel shows a list of objects contained in the folder.
    4. Right-click the header of the table to add or remove columns.
    5. Select Receive New Notifications to dynamically display new jobs, operations, requests, or workflows in the Monitor tab.
    6. Enter filter criteria to reduce the number of objects that appear in the contents panel.
    7. Select the object in the contents panel to view details about the object in the details panel.
    The details panel shows more information about the object selected in the contents panel.
    8. To view jobs that started around the same time as the selected job, click Actions > View Context.
    The selected job and other jobs that started around the same time appear in the Context View tab. You can also view the context of connections, deployed mappings, requests, and workflows.
    9. Click the Close button to close the Context View tab.

Viewing the Context of an Object

View the context of an object to view other objects of the same type that started around the same time as the selected object. You might view the context of an object to troubleshoot a problem or to get a high-level understanding of what is happening at a particular period of time. You can view the context of jobs, deployed mappings, connections, requests, and workflows.
For example, you notice that your deployed mapping failed. When you view the context of the deployed mapping, an unfiltered list of deployed mappings appears in a separate working view, showing you all deployed mappings that started around the same time as your deployed mapping. You notice that the other deployed mappings also failed. You determine that the cause of the problem is that the Data Integration Service was unavailable.
    1. In the Administrator tool, click the Monitor tab.
    2. Click the Execution Statistics view.
    3. In the Domain Navigator, expand a Data Integration Service and select the category of objects.
    For example, select Jobs.
    4. In the contents panel, select the object for which you want to view the context.
    For example, select a job.
    5. Click Actions > View Context.
