With the Monitoring UI, you can configure all errors that occur on the Bridge instance in regards of
- downtimes
- notification threshold
- notification patterns
All those adjustments can be made, if this error has occurred at least once. Once the error has occurred, it will be added to the database and can be configured. It is not possible to "create" errors within the UI.
Installing the UI
The Monitoring UI is an add-on to the Monitoring Base service. Given the case that the Monitoring Base Service is already deployed and configured (see Monitoring Base Service), the UI can just be deployed without any other prerequisites.
For information on how to deploy services, refer to Deployment of xUML Services.
User Authentication and Authorization
The access to the Monitoring UI can be controlled via user authentication and authorization.
User Authentication
Set setting Use User Authentication to true to enable user authentication. User authentication can be controlled via
| SmartCard login | To use SmartCard login, enable this via setting Login With Smartcard supported and enabled. |
| a database dedicated to identity access management | Configure database IdentityAccessManagement.sqlite with valid user data and deploy it to the E2E Bridge. Refer to Deploying and Managing Resources for information on how to deploy resources to an E2E Bridge. |
User Authorization
An LDAP directory is used to check for authenticated users, if they are allowed to access the UI. Specify the corresponding LDAP settings as described in Changing the UI Settings below.
Changing the UI Settings
The E2E Monitoring UI can be configured via its service settings. For more information on how to access the settings of a service, refer to xUML Service Settings.
