The graphs presentation section of the Broker Performance View contains three graphs: AS Broker Request Activity, AS Broker Activity Status, and Client Connections. Provided that data collection is set and the Trend option is selected (in the monitoring plan), the graphically displayed data complements the summarized text data that appears on the AppServer Broker Performance View page. See Data collection details for details.

One display format for these graphs, as shown on the Broker Performance View page, is a line graph. This format measures how a particular broker-related activity has changed over a period of time. The following table identifies and briefly describes each of these graphs.

Table 1. AppServer broker performance-related graphs
Graph name Description
AS Broker Request Activity Displays two lines of broker-related performance data over a specified time period. The blue line identifies the number of requests that the broker has completed since the last poll. The red line identifies the number of requests that this same broker has received in this time period.
AS Broker Activity Status Displays two lines of broker-related performance data over a specified time period. The blue line identifies the percent of requests that the broker has rejected, up to and including the last poll OpenEdge Management has completed for this broker resource. The red line identifies the percent of requests in the queue waiting for the broker, up to and including the last poll completed.
Client Connections Displays two lines of client connections related to this broker over a specified time period. For example, data displayed might be related to the last polling activity. The blue line identifies the total number of client connections requested. The red line identifies the number of clients currently connected to this broker.
Note: It is possible for this graph to accurately show that the number of current connections is higher than the total number of connections. The Clients Total reflects only new connections over the specified time period. In contrast, the Clients Current reflects all current connections in place when the graph is displayed, both newly connected and those that might still be connected from a previous polling period.
