HP 5992-3838 - Manual (Page 32)

NOTE: My application does not appear in the "Applications affected..." table. Why?
There are several possible explanations for this to occur:
• It takes some time for template matching to complete.
Action: Wait a couple of minutes to see whether or not matching occurs.
For a more precise indicator of the matching interval (and therefore, the likely wait-time),
click the Admin/Config tab, then the AD Agents tab, and find the column labeled 'Proc
intrvl' (Process interval) for the server where you expect the application to be running. The
process interval roughly represents the time needed to refresh the matching data.
• There is an error in the template values such that the application described in the template
does not match any currently running processes.
Action: Double-check your template values and edit if necessary.
• The template is correct, but the application described is not currently running.
Action: Ensure that the application designated in the template is running on the host where
you expect it to be.
For more information, see “Data Missing in Application Discovery Screens” (page 44) .
Create a New Template
The process for creating a new application template is similar to editing an existing template.
1. To start, click the Admin/Config tab, then the AD Templates tab.
2. Click the Create New AD Template button.
The application template editor opens.
3. Fill in the application template values as desired. See “Key to Application Template Values
” (page 32) .
4. Apply the changes. This action saves the new template under the unique name that you
have supplied. (You might need to scroll to the right to locate the Apply and Cancel buttons.)
Your new application template immediately appears in the list of all templates that is displayed
when you click the Admin/Config tab, then the AD Templates tab. The new template definition
is applied the next time that matching is compared to the collected data.
Key to Application Template Values
The tables on this page provide the definitions for the editable fields in HP Application Discovery
(AD) templates.
Summary Fields These fields let you provide unique identifiers for the template itself. These
fields also include options for restricting the application definition to a particular operating
environment.
Attribute Fields These fields let you set limits on how many users and how many processes
can be associated with the template. You can also set visibility of the resulting application in HP
Application Discovery screens.
Rule Fields These fields let you build a rule that describes the process constituents for the
resulting application. Regular expressions are allowed in these fields when designating user,
executable path, and command line arguments.
