The Aggregation Session Inspector enables viewing and editing of existing sessions. The data is displayed in a table where each row represents a session, with the session data ordered in configurable columns. It is also possible to edit the contents of the sessions, that is, to change the timeout and the values of the session variables.
Note!
Aggregation Session Inspector only inspects sessions stored on disk.
To open the Aggregation Session Inspector, click the Inspection button in the upper left part of the Desktop window, and then select from the menu.
The Aggregation Session Inspector
Note!
To use the Aggregation Session Inspector, the EC specified as the Storage Host in the Storage tab of the Aggregation profile configuration must be up and running.
Initially the dialog is empty and must be populated with data using the corresponding Search Sessions dialog, see the section below, The Search Sessions Dialog, for details. The following section describes the options in the Edit menu. The File and View menus contain standard options for saving, closing and refreshing.
The Edit Menu
The Edit menu contains the following options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
Displays the Search Sessions dialog where search criteria may be defined to identify the group of sessions to be displayed, see the section below, The Search Sessions Dialog, for further information. | |
Displays a new dialog where the session variables may be viewed and if was disabled in the Search Session dialog, the session variables may be edited as well. An example of a UDR Viewer dialog:
Note! The dialog also appears when you double-click the Index column of the session. | |
When you select the menu item, after performing a search, all the aggregation storage session files are validated. This is done by attempting to read the session data to establish what can and cannot be read. If the storage contains references to corrupt sessions, an option to remove them is given. | |
Allows a more detailed view of the UDRs in the session list. For further information about UDR Views, see the Ultra Reference Guide. |
The Search Sessions Dialog
When you select the Search... option in the Edit menu, the Search Sessions dialog opens where you can select which group of sessions you want to view.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
Profile | Select the Aggregation profile that corresponds to the data of interest. |
Timeout Period | If you select this check box you can select a timeout period from which you want to display data. You can either select the User Defined option in the drop-down list and then enter date and time in the From and To fields, or you can select one of the predefined time intervals in the drop-down list; Last Hour, Today, Yesterday, This Week, Previous Week, Last 7 Days, This Month or Previous Month. |
Search Handling | Disable Read Only if content of the sessions need to be altered. Exclusive access to the repository is required to alter the sessions, meaning that if a currently running workflow is using the selected profile, the workflow needs to be stopped to be able to get exclusive access. Disable Limit results if you want to fetch all sessions in the session index. This can be time and memory consuming. Change Limit results to get fewer/more results. The total number of results is briefly shown in the status bar of the search result dialog. |
