iDash slowness and reports timeout.

Products

• iDash Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

Every morning, when generating reports, we see EEM timeout error (attached). Recycling EEM and iDash services seem to resolve the problem but it's still a reoccurring issue.

See the following authentication message in the error log:

1-02-26 10.05.38 [ERROR] http-nio-8080-exec-8:com.ca.idash.ws.controller.exceptions.RestExceptionMapper: Invalid authentication, possible session timeout

Getting EEM timeout while generating Autosys reports.

Environment

Release : 12.1

Component : CA WORKLOAD AUTOMATION iDASH FOR CA 7

Resolution

In the idash.conf file increase the following value below from 100 to 180:

idash.server.eem.report.fetch.timeout

For reports the idash.server.eem.report.fetch.timeout value supersedes idash.server.eem.fetch.timeout.
