To create a monitoring plan for a scripted database, you must do the following:

  • Add a resource monitor for a scripted database.
  • Start a dbagent for the scripted database. For details about how to enable a scripted database agent, see Start a scripted database agent.

  1. Click Resources > New > Scripted Database in the OpenEdge Management console.
    The Create Scripted Database Monitor page appears.
  2. Provide the following information:
    • The display name for the database. The name must be unique among all scripted databases you are monitoring.
    • The description of the database (optional).
    • The host name. This name must be a valid name that can be resolved.
    • The host's IP address (optional).
