Configure Intelligent App Analytics
Note:
Starting from 14.1-21.x or later builds, Metrics Collector is disabled by default in the new NetScaler instances added in NetScaler Console. The metrics collector configuration for the existing managed instances remain unchanged.
The Intelligent App Analytics feature is supported only in NetScaler 12.1 Build 50.28 or later. Metrics Collector pushes the NetScaler counter data to NetScaler Console, which is used to detect application issues. To use the Intelligent App Analytics feature, Metrics Collector must be configured on each NetScaler instance.
To ensure if Metrics Collector is enabled:
-
Navigate to Infrastructure > Instances. Under Instances, select the type of instance you want to monitor (for example, NetScaler VPX).
-
Select the NetScaler instance.
-
From the Select Action list, select Metrics Collector.
-
On the Configure Metrics Collector settings page, ensure if Enable option is selected. If not, select the Enable option and click OK.
Once the Metrics Collector option is enabled on the NetScaler instance, navigate to Applications > Dashboard. Select an instance to view anomalies under Issues section.
It is recommended to also enable analytics to visualize issues such as detailed web transactions for server errors (5xx). For more information, see Enable Analytics.
