BMC Performance Manager for Websphere Application Server - Advanced Best Practices

Overview

This paper covers advanced best practices for BMC Performance Manager for WebSphere Application Server. The basic best practices approached J2EE management from a "stovepipe" approach, meaning each object involved in a J2EE transaction is examined individually for abnormal behavior. Whereas, the discussion in this paper outlines how to use BMC Performance Manager for WebSphere Application Server to manage J2EE transactions from a transaction viewpoint, rather than a stovepipe viewpoint.
