Managing Business Performance Data Warehouses

The Business Performance Data Warehouses in your IBM® Business Process Manager configuration retrieve and store tracked performance data, which enables users in IBM Process Designer to create reports and also analyze processes using the Optimizer.

Use the Performance Admin Console to work with Performance Data Warehouse queues, manage data transfer errors, and monitor overall performance. To access the Performance Data Warehouse, the user must have administrator access. The same access applies to users of the Performance Admin Console. See "Administrative security roles."

Accessing the Performance Data Warehouse

To access the Performance Admin Console, use one of the following options:

Point your web browser to http://[host_name]:[port]/PerformanceAdmin, providing the name of the host where the Performance Data Warehouse is installed and the port designated for the Performance Data Warehouse during IBM BPM installation.
If you are working on a Windows host where the Performance Data Warehouse is installed, click Start > IBM Business Process Manager > Performance Admin Console .

Log in to the Performance Admin Console with the administrator account and password that was specified on the Administrative Security page during IBM BPM profile creation.

Granting access to other users or groups

As the administrator, you can grant access to the Performance Data Warehouse to other users or groups. You use the WebSphere® Application Server administrative console to grant access.

Log in to the administrative console as the primary administrative user.
Click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > IBM_BPM_PerformanceDW_bpmNode_server > Security role to user/group mapping.
Select the row for the twuser role and click Map Users or Map Groups.
Map the user or group to the twuser role, and click OK.
Restart the server.

If you have configured an endpoint service such as Tivoli Access Manager WebSEAL, a PerformanceAdmin user must be authenticated also through WebSEAL in order for the instrumentation page to load properly.
