How to Set Up the PeopleSoft (Tuxedo) Resource Monitor

This task describes the working order for setting up the monitoring environment. If Tuxedo 7.1 or later is installed, you can monitor more than one PeopleSoft (Tuxedo) application server at a time. If Tuxedo 6.5 or earlier is installed, you can monitor only one PeopleSoft (Tuxedo) application server at a time.

1. Prerequisites

   Ensure that a Tuxedo workstation client (not a native client), version 6.3 or later, is installed on the Controller machine.

   Use a Tuxedo 6.x client if a Tuxedo 6.x server is used, and Tuxedo 7.1 or later client if a Tuxedo 7.1 or later server is used.

   If you use a Tuxedo 6.5 or earlier server, you can still use a Tuxedo 7.1 or later client in order to monitor it, provided that you set the WSINTOPPRE71 environment variable to yes.

   Note: A Tuxedo workstation client communicates with the application server over the network, and is not required to run the Tuxedo application server on the same machine. A native client can only communicate with the Tuxedo application server if it is part of the relevant Tuxedo domain.

2. Define the environment variables on the Controller machine

   1. Set the TUXDIR variable to the Tuxedo installation directory (for example, V:\environ\32\Tuxedo 8.0).

   2. Add the Tuxedo bin directory to the PATH variable.

3. Check the Workstation Listener (WSL) Process

   Ensure that the workstation listener (WSL) process is running. This enables the application server to accept requests from workstation clients.

   The address and port number used to connect to the application server must match those dedicated to the WSL process.

   Note: For information on configuring the WSL, refer to the BEA Tuxedo Web site.

4. Configure the PeopleSoft (Tuxedo) monitor on the Controller
