Communicating between data collector and appliance

Approximately every 10 minutes, the data collector queries the DataPower® SOA appliance to see if the domain list has changed. If the domain list has changed, the data collector updates its information as needed and begins monitoring new domains defined on the Data Power appliance.

The data collector polls for data at a frequency defined by the -poll parameter (the default is 10 seconds).

Communication errors between the data collector and the DataPower SOA appliance that prevent the collection of data are logged to the console (the command line session where the startDPDC script was executed) and to the operations log. If the data collector is running in background mode, errors are written to the operations log. Additional information concerning the communications between the data collector and DataPower SOA appliance can be obtained by setting the operations logging level for the data collector from error to info using the updateLogging Take Action command from the Tivoli Enterprise Portal.
