Monitor scripted databases outside the AdminServer running OpenEdge Management

OpenEdge Management can monitor scripted databases that are running outside of the AdminServer in which OpenEdge Management is running. In order to monitor a database that is scripted, you must create a remote database resource.

To monitor a scripted database once you migrate it, OpenEdge Management uses the dbagent installed with your OpenEdge database. This deployment is shown below.

Figure 1. Monitoring scripted databases on another machine


Consider you have database B running on Machine B and database C running on Machine C. It would make sense for the dbagent on Machine B to connect to the AdminServer on Machine B, since doing so would provide the most versatility (for the log file viewer and increased performance, for example).

Since there is no AdminServer running on Machine C, the dbagent can decide whether to connect to the AdminServer on Machine A or Machine B.

See OpenEdge Management: Database Management for more information.
