Question by Sandeep R. · Sep 01, 2015 at 04:57 PM ·

How to Validate the custom measures created

I have created few measures for specific URI's to capture the web request response time in test env, where we have very few transactions happening. Before migrating to the prod env, I'd like to make sure that the measure created will be responding as expected.

However, when I create a chart using those custom measure, all I could see is a msg on the dashboard "No measurements available for selected time frame". Whereas, in the default monitoring dashboard for the same time frame i could see transactions happened.

Hi Sandeep,

I was mistaken thinking you were using a URI Measure, the Web Request measure should be showing you data without the business transaction. Looking at the Measure configuration there is a space between /api/app/ and Example1 which could be causing an error. The dashboard is showing the BT is working but it is aggregating the URIs together so if you want to continue using the BT I would change it to no restriction which should then split properly.

Sandeep, Kyle,

I am not sure why a BT would be needed to track the URI response time. Unless you want to be able to easily drill down to the PP or something like that.

Could you provide two things:

- The URI you want to be part of the measure

- The measure config.

Thanks!

Thanks Kyle for the response, however its still the same.

I created a BT and n tried adding to a dashboard, still the same "No measurements available for selected time frame"

Thanks

Sandeep

Can you post a screenshot of the configuration of your business transaction. I have a feeling that there is either no traffic through those urls or the configuration could be off.

Right now the currently configured BT is looking for URI 1 and URI 2 and URI 3 ... as part of the same purepath. If you change the ands to ORs it should start working for you. Also you may want to add a split for complete URI path to distinguish between the different filters

2 things I would look at,

1. Make sure that your filter measures have a value in the upper severe field of at least 1.

2. Look at the BT dashlet for that BT (right click on the created BT and open in new dashboard) and see if you are seeing information there.

Remember that BTs take effect after you edit them so ensure that you have traffic on the specific URLs after making the changes

@Richard J.. Boyd - Do you have any other places to look for this issue?

I think the issue is that the measure you are using need to be put into a business transaction first. Things like the URI measures are used as filters for BTs.

HTH,

Kyle
