FME Server Monitoring Dashboards Missing?

Hi there,

I have a distributed FME Server installation - Web/Core, Engine, DB behind a Firewall/reverse proxy.

 

We configured the JobHistoryStatisticsGathering workspace on a schedule and it is running successfully. However in the FME Server documentation here https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/WebUI/Dashboards.htm there are several dashboards listed that I am not seeing. I see:

  • Daily Total Jobs
  • Failures By Workspace
  • Daily Total Running Time
  • Daily Average Queued Time
  • Average Translation Time

I don't see:

  • Peak Usage Time by Workspace
  • Peak Usage Time by Engine
  • Peak Usage Time by Server

Do these need to be deployed differently?

Thanks,

Marc

Thanks for pointing this out! These dashboards are no longer available in FME Server and will be removed from the documentation.

 

However, there are other ways we can keep an eye on FME Server resources...

 

In FME Server 2021.0+, we can create custom dashboards that monitor job statistics and resources: https://community.safe.com/s/article/Monitoring-FME-Server-Job-Activity-using-the-REST-API

Statistics are available for jobs, workspace, automation, or schedule. Some metrics are Elapsed Time, CPU Time, CPU Percent, Peak Memory Usage, Total Runs, Average CPU, etc. These can be measured and displayed in any number of ways. Please review the tutorial for examples.

 

We can also get a bird's eye view of the Server's activity with the new Server Analytics page: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/WebUI/Server-Analytics.htm 

 

I hope that helps! I apologize for any inconvenience with those missing dashboards.
