Hi,
I’ve been working with SSO/SiteMinder for about 15 years and always wondered why the policy server doesn’t echo the transaction response time into the access log. This would provide an incredibly useful method of pro-active monitoring and debugging. We do have APM deployed in Introscope mode but it gives a very high level view of performance.
All other platform monitoring we have is based on Apache and traffic manager access logs which have various response times recorded against E2E requests. Not being able to do the same at the policy server tier is a gap. We also have a large number of web agents using the policy server that we don’t have direct control over so our only way to proactively monitor health is using the 15 sec average response time metric on APM.
Thanks,
Stephen
