8.0 Monitoring OpenText

OpenText provides cross-platform monitoring and diagnostic capability to all servers in your OpenText tree. This feature lets you monitor your servers from any location either by exposing multiple interfaces from different tools/protocol handlers or on your network where a Web browser is available. The OpenText utilities such as ndscheck, iMonitor, LDAP rootdse search, and ndsrepair help in gathering the monitoring data.

OpenText also provides an LDAP search method for retrieving the real time statistics for OpenText subsystems and background processes. In this method, OpenText records the state of OpenText processes and operations as an entry with the base DN of cn=monitor. By using this interface, an OpenText administrator can monitor the status of OpenText modules and operations. OpenText supports this feature on LDAP protocol and only an LDAP client can place requests for monitoring data.
