This page provides detailed information about a specific VistaLink connector.

J2EE Connector Configuration

• WLS App Name: The WebLogic application name assigned to the connector during deployment.
• Deployment State:The WebLogic deployment state of the connector.
• EIS Type: The EIS type, from the ra.xml file.
• Connection Factory Name: WebLogic's name for the connection factory.
• Adapter Link Ref: If this connector is linked to a base adapter, this is set to the Connection Factory Name of the base adapter.
• Deployed JNDI Name: The JNDI name from ra.xml used by the container to register the connector in JNDI under.

VistaLink Configuration File Settings

• connectorJndiName: The "connectorJndiName" property in the ra.xml file, which VistaLink uses to retrieve a particular set of configuration settings from the VistaLink configuration file. If this name does not match the JNDI name the connector was depoyed under, a warning about JNDI mismatch is displayed. You should immediately correct this condition, if found.
• M listener IP Address: IP address of the M listener, from the selected VistaLink configuration file entry.
• M listener Port: Port of the M listener, from the selected VistaLink configuration file entry.
• Default J2EE Socket Timeout: The default socket timeout to use when reading data from a remote system. "Always use as Minimum?" means whether this value should always be the minimum/floor, even if per-call timeouts set programmatically in applications have a value lower than the ‘default’.
• Institution Mapping(s): A list of all institution mappings for this connector, from the selected VistaLink configuration file entry.

Health Monitoring

• Connection Failure Count: The number of times, since deployment or server re-start, that an attempt to create a physical connection to the M system has failed.
• Connection Authentication Failure Count: The number of times, since deployment or server re-start, that the connector has attempted to log on to the M system with the connector user access/verify code, and failed.
• Production Mismatch Count: The number of times, since deployment or server re-start, that the connector has attempted to log on to the M system, and found that the Production setting for the M system does not match the Prodcution setting for the J2EE server's JVM. On the J2EE server, this setting is controlled via the gov.va.med.environment.production JVM argument.
• Division Mismatch Count: The number of RPC requests, since deployment or server re-start, that have failed due to the division specified in the RPC request not being legal for reauthentication user. A large number of division mismatches may indicate a misconfigured JNDI-to-institution mapping for the connector in question.
• Identity Failure Count: The number of times, since deployment or server re-start, that re-authentication has failed when attempting to execute RPCs on behalf of users. A large number of failures may indicate a misconfigured JNDI-to-institution mapping for the connector in question.

Performance Monitoring

• Create Connection Handle Avg (ms): The amount of time it takes for a VistaLink managed connection to create a new connection handle for the underlying physical connection represented by the ManagedConnection instance. This connection handle is used by the application code to refer to the underlying physical connection.
• Match Managed Connection Avg (ms): The amount of time it takes for the VistaLink connection factory to either a) match a connection request with an existing connection in pool of managed connections, or b) determine that no such match exists.

Live VistALink M/VistA Server Query

• Remote VL Listener Timeout: The number of seconds that a VistaLink connection from J2EE to M is allowed to remain connected but inactive, before the remote M system drops the connection.
• Remote VL Reauthenticated Session Timeout: The number of seconds that the remote M system considers a connection to remain reauthenicated after a successful reauthentication has occurred.
• Remote UCI: The UCI of the remote M account, as reported by GETENV^%ZOSV.
• Remote VOL: The volume set of the remote M account, as reported by GETENV^%ZOSV.
• Remote BOX-VOLUME: The BOX-VOLUME pair from the TaskMan site parameters file of the remote M account.
• Remote M Version: The version of M running in the remote M account.
• Remote Operating System: The host operating system for the computer system hosting the remote M account.
• Remote Domain: The MailMan Domain configured in the remote M account.
• Remote is Production?: The production setting of the remote M account.
