IPS Server Monitor
IPS Server machines
Planning Space is deployed on one or several Windows server machines, which may be physical servers or virtual machines.
Tenant users' logon sessions and scheduled jobs will be distributed across server machines according to the configuration set up by the Planning Space Aministrator. Please contact your Administrator for current information about the server machines in your deployment.
IPS Server Monitor is a graphical web-based interface to access live and historical performance data for the IPS Server machines in a deployment.
Note: The IPS service setting 'Enable Server Monitor' (with enabled as the default setting) can be used to disable all server monitor processes. When it is disabled, all back-end data collection and API endpoints will be stopped; and the tenant Server Monitor user interface will be removed.
Access to IPS Server Monitor
In the Planning Space Web interface, open the Administration screen and select Server Monitor in the left-hand menu.
Note: The Administration screen in Planning Space Web requires login as a an Administrator user.
Or you can use the direct URL 'https://{SERVICEADDRESS}/{TENANTNAME}/#/system/monitor'.
In the Planning Space Desktop Client application, running on your own client machine, you can select Server Monitor in the top menu in the Administration workspace.
Using IPS Server Monitor
There is a graph view for each IPS Server machine. The machine name appears above the graph view.
Note: Graph views do not appear for server machines that are not in a Running state.
Click the expand
icon 
on any graph to get an expanded view
(and click the X icon to close it).
The coloured bars located at the right of each graph show the current values of the performance metrics, for each server machine.
You can select which performance metrics are displayed by clicking the metric category in the left-hand menu ('CPU', 'Memory', 'Threads', and so on). The table below shows all of the performance metrics that are available.
Each graph shows historical data for the time range as selected by the drop-down menu at the top left, ranging from the last 15 minutes to 24 hours, or a custom time range. Click the Load button to load the new data into the graphs.
The number of days of stored performance data is 30 days by default, with a sampling interval of 30 seconds. Check with your Planning Space Administrator about the data settings for your deployment.
The key to the graphs appears above the graphs, indicating the metrics that are displayed.
Use the tick boxes in the key to show or hide the graph data for individual metrics:
Table of metrics
Note: if the IPS Server is running additional add-in services then application metric data will be shown for the additional services.
