Monitoring Workflows Overview

You can monitor workflows and tasks in the Workflow Monitor. A workflow is a
set of instructions that tells an Integration Service how to run tasks. Integration
Services run on nodes or grids. The nodes, grids, and services are all part of a
domain.

With the Workflow Monitor, you can view details about a workflow or task in
Gantt Chart view or Task view. You can also view details about the Integration
Service, nodes, and grids.

The Workflow Monitor displays workflows that have run at least once. You can
run, stop, abort, and resume workflows from the Workflow Monitor. The Workflow
Monitor continuously receives information from the Integration Service and
Repository Service. It also fetches information from the repository to display
historic information.

The Workflow Monitor consists of the following windows:

Navigator window. Displays monitored repositories, Integration Services, and

repository objects.
Output window. Displays messages from the Integration Service and the
Repository Service.
Properties window. Displays details about services, workflows, worklets, and
tasks.
Time window. Displays progress of workflow runs.
Gantt Chart view. Displays details about workflow runs in chronological (Gantt
Chart) format.
Task view. Displays details about workflow runs in a report format, organized
by workflow run.

The Workflow Monitor displays time relative to the time configured on the
Integration Service machine. For example, a folder contains two workflows. One
workflow runs on an Integration Service in the local time zone, and the other runs
on an Integration Service in a time zone two hours later. If you start both
workflows at 9 a.m. local time, the Workflow Monitor displays the start time as 9
a.m. for one workflow and as 11 a.m. for the other workflow.
Using the Workflow Monitor

The Workflow Monitor provides options to view information about workflow runs.
After you open the Workflow Monitor and connect to a repository, you can view
dynamic information about workflow runs by connecting to an Integration Service.

You can customize the Workflow Monitor display by configuring the maximum
days or workflow runs the Workflow Monitor shows. You can also filter tasks and
Integration Services in both Gantt Chart and Task view.

Complete the following steps to monitor workflows:

1.Open the Workflow Monitor.

2.Connect to the repository containing the workflow.
3.Connect to the Integration Service.
4.Select the workflow you want to monitor.
5.Select Gantt Chart view or Task view.

Opening the Workflow Monitor

You can open the Workflow Monitor in the following ways:

Select Start > Programs > Informatica PowerCenter [version] > Client
>Workflow Monitor from the Windows Start menu.
Configure the Workflow Manager to open the Workflow Monitor when you run a
workflow from the Workflow Manager.
Click Tools > Workflow Monitor from the Designer, Workflow Manager, or
Repository Manager. Or, click the Workflow Monitor icon on the Tools toolbar.
When you use a Tools button to open the Workflow Monitor, PowerCenter uses
 the same repository connection to connect to the repository and opens the
same folders.

You can open multiple instances of the Workflow Monitor on one machine using
the Windows Start menu.

To open the Workflow Monitor when you start a workflow:

1.In the Workflow Manager, click Tools > Options.

2.In the General tab, select Launch Workflow Monitor When Workflow Is Started.

To open the Workflow Monitor from the Workflow Manager:

1.In the Workflow Manager, connect to a repository.

In the Navigator, right-click an Integration Service or a repository and select
2.Run Monitor.
The Workflow Monitor appears.

Connecting to a Repository

When you open the Workflow Monitor, you must connect to a repository. Connect
to repositories by clicking Repository > Connect. Enter the repository name and
connection information.

After you connect to a repository, the Workflow Monitor displays a list of

Integration Services available for the repository. The Workflow Monitor can
monitor multiple repositories, Integration Services, and workflows at the same
time.

Note: If you are not connected to a repository, you can remove the repository
from the Navigator. Select the repository in the Navigator and click Edit > Delete.
The Workflow Monitor displays a message verifying that you want to remove the
repository from the Navigator list. Click Yes to remove the repository. You can
connect to the repository again at any time.

Connecting to an Integration Service

When you connect to a repository, the Workflow Monitor displays all Integration
Services associated with the repository. This includes active and deleted
Integration Services. To monitor tasks and workflows that run on an Integration
Service, you must connect to the Integration Service. In the Navigator, the
Workflow Monitor displays a red icon over deleted Integration Services.

To connect to an Integration Service, right-click it and select Connect. When you

connect to an Integration Service, you can view all folders that you have
permission for. To disconnect from an Integration Service, right-click it and select
Disconnect. When you disconnect from an Integration Service, or when the
Workflow Monitor cannot connect to an Integration Service, the Workflow Monitor
displays disconnected for the Integration Service status.

The Workflow Monitor is resilient to the Integration Service. If the Workflow

Monitor loses connection to the Integration Service, LMAPI tries to reestablish
the connection for the duration of the PowerCenter Client resilience time-out
period.

After the connection is reestablished, the Workflow Monitor retrieves the

workflow status from the repository. Depending on your Workflow Monitor
advanced settings, you may have to reopen the workflow to view the latest status
of child tasks.

You can also ping an Integration Service to verify that it is running. Right-click the
Integration Service in the Navigator and select Ping Integration Service. You can
view the ping response time in the Output window.

Note: You can also open an Integration Service in the Navigator without
connecting to it. When you open an Integration Service, the Workflow Monitor
gets workflow run information stored in the repository. It does not get dynamic
workflow run information from currently running workflows.

Filtering Tasks and Integration Services

You can filter tasks and Integration Services in both Gantt Chart view and Task
view. Use the Filters menu to hide tasks and Integration Services you do not
want to view in the Workflow Monitor.

Filtering Tasks

You can view all or some workflow tasks. You can filter tasks you do not want to
view. For example, if you want to view only Session tasks, you can hide all other
tasks. You can view all tasks at any time.

You can also filter deleted tasks. To filter deleted tasks, click Filters > Deleted
Tasks.

To filter tasks:

1.Click Filters > Tasks.

The Filter Tasks dialog box appears.
2.Clear the tasks you want to hide, and select the tasks you want to view.
3.Click OK.

Note: When you filter a task, the Gantt Chart view displays a red link between
tasks to indicate a filtered task. You can double-click the link to view the tasks
you hid.

Filtering Integration Services

When you connect to a repository, the Workflow Monitor displays all Integration
Services associated with the repository. You can filter out Integration Services to
view only Integration Services you want to monitor.

When you hide an Integration Service, the Workflow Monitor hides the Integration
Service from the Navigator for the Gantt Chart and Task views. You can show
the Integration Service again at any time.
You can hide unconnected Integration Services. When you hide a connected
Integration Service, the Workflow Monitor asks if you want to disconnect from the
Integration Service and then filter it. You must disconnect from an Integration
Service before hiding it.

To filter Integration Services:

In the Navigator, right-click a repository to which you are connected and select
1.Filter Integration Services.
-or-
Connect to a repository and click Filters > Integration Services.
The Filter Integration Services dialog box appears.
Select the Integration Services you want to view and clear the Integration
2.Services you want to filter. Click OK.
If you are connected to an Integration Service that you clear, the Workflow
Monitor prompts you to disconnect from the Integration Service before filtering.
3.Click Yes to disconnect from the Integration Service and filter it.
The Workflow Monitor hides the Integration Service from the Navigator.
Click No to remain connected to the Integration Service. If you click No, you
cannot filter the Integration Service.

Tip: To filter an Integration Service in the Navigator, right-click it and select Filter
Integration Service.

Opening and Closing Folders

You can select which folders to open and close in the Workflow Monitor. When
you open a folder, the Workflow Monitor displays the number of workflow runs
that you configured in the Workflow Monitor options.

You can open and close folders in the Gantt Chart and Task views. When you
open a folder, it opens in both views. To open a folder, right-click it in the
Navigator and select Open. Or, you can double-click the folder.

Workflow Monitor stores new runs in memory until
it reaches this number
Using Workflow Monitor Toolbars

The Workflow Monitor toolbars allow you to select tools and tasks quickly. You
can perform the following toolbar operations:

Display or hide a toolbar.

Create a new toolbar.
Add or remove buttons.

By default, the Workflow Monitor displays the following toolbars:

Standard. Contains buttons to connect to and disconnect from repositories,

print, view print previews, search the workspace, show or hide the navigator in
task view, and show or hide the output window.
Integration Service. Contains buttons to connect to and disconnect from
Integration Services, ping Integration Service, and perform workflows
operations.
View. Contains buttons to configure time increments and show properties,
workflow logs, or session logs.
Filters. Contains buttons to display most recent runs, and to filter tasks,
Integration Services, and folders.

After a toolbar appears, it displays until you exit the Workflow Monitor or hide the
toolbar. You can drag each toolbar to resize and reposition each toolbar.

Working with Tasks and Workflows

You can perform the following tasks with objects in the Workflow Monitor:

Run a task or workflow.

Resume a suspended workflow.
Restart a task or workflow without recovery.
Stop or abort a task or workflow.
Schedule and unschedule a workflow.
View session logs and workflow logs.
View history names.

Opening and Displaying Previous Workflow Runs

In both the Gantt Chart view and Task View, you can open and view previous
workflow runs.

To open previous runs:

In the Navigator or Workflow Run List, select the workflow with the runs you
1.want to see.
2.Right-click the workflow and select Open Latest 20 Runs.
The menu option is disabled when the latest 20 workflow runs are already open.
Up to 20 of the latest runs appear.
Running a Task, Workflow, or Worklet

The Workflow Monitor displays workflows that have run at least once. In the
Workflow Monitor, you can run a workflow or any task or worklet in the workflow.
To run a workflow or part of a workflow, right-click the workflow or task and select
a restart option. When you select restart, the task, workflow, or worklet runs on
the Integration Service you specify in the workflow properties.

You can also run part of a workflow. When you run part of a workflow, the
Integration Service runs the workflow from the selected task to the end of the
workflow.

Restart behavior for real-time sessions depends on the real-time source.

2.Right-click the task and select Restart Workflow from Task.
-or-
Click Task > Restart.
The Integration Service runs the workflow starting with the task you specify.

Recovering a Workflow or Worklet

In the workflow properties, you can choose to suspend the workflow or worklet if
a session fails. After you fix the errors that caused the session to fail, recover the
workflow in the Workflow Monitor. When you recover a workflow, the Integration
Service recovers the failed session, and continues running the rest of the tasks in
the workflow path.

Recovery behavior for real-time sessions depends on the real-time source.

To recover a workflow or worklet:

1.In the Navigator, select the workflow or worklet you want to recover.
2.Click Tasks > Recover.
-or-
Right-click the workflow or worklet in the Navigator and select Recover.
The Workflow Monitor displays Integration Service messages about the recover
command in the Output window.

Restarting a Task or Workflow Without Recovery

You can restart a task or workflow without recovery by using a cold start. Cold
start is a start mode that the Integration Service uses to restart a task or workflow
without recovery. When you restart a failed task or workflow that has recovery
enabled, the Integration Service does not process recovery data. The Integration
Service clears the state of operation and the recovery file or table before it
restarts the task or workflow. You do not want to recover data if you already
cleaned up the target system.

To restart a task or workflow without recovery:

1.In the Navigator, select the task or workflow you want to restart.
2.Click Tasks > Cold Start Task or Workflows > Cold Start Workflow.
-or-
Right-click the task or workflow in the Navigator and select Cold Start Task or
Cold Start Workflow.

Stopping or Aborting Tasks and Workflows

You can stop or abort a task, workflow, or worklet in the Workflow Monitor at any
time. When you stop a task in the workflow, the Integration Service stops
processing the task and all other tasks in its path. The Integration Service
continues running concurrent tasks. If the Integration Service cannot stop
processing the task, you need to abort the task. When the Integration Service
aborts a task, it kills the DTM process and terminates the task.

Behavior for real-time sessions depends on the real-time source.

To stop or abort workflows, tasks, or worklets in the Workflow Monitor:

1.In the Navigator, select the task, workflow, or worklet you want to stop or abort.
2.Click Tasks > Stop or Tasks > Abort.
-or-
Right-click the task, workflow, or worklet in the Navigator and select Stop or
Abort.
The Workflow Monitor displays the status of the stop or abort command in the
Output window.

Scheduling and Unscheduling Workflows

You can schedule and unschedule workflows in the Workflow Monitor. You can
schedule any workflow that is not configured to run on demand. When you try to
schedule a run on demand workflow, the Workflow Monitor displays an error
message in the Output window.

When you schedule an unscheduled workflow, the workflow uses its original
schedule specified in the workflow properties. If you want to specify a different
schedule for the workflow, you must edit the scheduler in the Workflow Manager.

To schedule an unscheduled workflow in the Workflow Monitor:

1.Right-click the workflow and select Schedule.

The Workflow Monitor displays the workflow status as Scheduled, and displays
2.a message in the Output window.

To unschedule a scheduled workflow in the Workflow Monitor:

1.Right-click the workflow and select Unschedule.

The Workflow Monitor displays the workflow status as Unscheduled and
2.displays a message in the Output window.

Viewing Session Logs and Workflow Logs

You can view session and workflow logs from the Workflow Monitor. To view
workflow or session logs, right-click the session or workflow in the Workflow
Monitor and select Get Session Log or Get Workflow Log. You can view the most
recent session or workflow log.
When you open a session or workflow log, the Log Events window sends a
request to the Log Agent. The Log Agent retrieves logs from each node that ran
the session or workflow. The Log Events window displays the logs by node.

If you want to view past session or workflow logs, you can configure the session
or workflow to save log files. When you configure the workflow to save log files,
the workflow creates a text file and the binary file that displays in the Log Events
window. You can save log files by timestamp or by workflow or session runs. You
can configure how many workflow or session runs to save.

To view past session or workflow log files, configure the session or workflow to
save logs by timestamp.

To view a session or workflow log file:

1.Right-click a session or workflow in the Navigator or Time window.

2.Select Get Session Log or Get Workflow Log.
The most recent session or workflow log file opens in the Log Events window.

Tip: When the Workflow Monitor retrieves the session or workflow log, you can
press Esc to cancel the process.

may be changing. For example, the status may have
been Running but is changing to Stopping.
Unscheduled Workflows You removed a workflow from the schedule.
Waiting Workflows Integration Service is waiting for available resources so it
Tasks can run the workflow or task. For example, you may set
the maximum number of running Session and Command
tasks allowed for each Integration Service process on the
node to 10. If the Integration Service is already running
10 concurrent sessions, all other workflows and tasks
have the Waiting status until the Integration Service is
free to run more tasks.

To see a list of tasks by status, view the workflow in Task view and sort by
status. Or, click Edit > List Tasks in Gantt Chart view.

Opening All Folders

You can open all folders that you have permission for in a repository. To open all
the folders in the Gantt Chart view, right-click the Integration Service you want to
view, and select Open All Folders. The Workflow Monitor displays workflows and
tasks in the folders.

Using the Task View

The Task view displays information about workflow runs in a report format. The
Task view provides a convenient way to compare and filter details of workflow
runs. Task view displays the following information:

Workflow run list. The list of workflow runs. The workflow run list contains
folder, workflow, worklet, and task names. The Workflow Monitor displays
workflow runs chronologically with the most recent run at the top. It displays
folders and Integration Services alphabetically.
Status message. Message from the Integration Service regarding the status of
the task or workflow.
Run type. The method you used to start the workflow. You might manually start
the workflow or schedule the workflow to start.
Node. Node of the Integration Service that ran the task.
Start time. The time that the Integration Service starts running the task or
workflow.
Completion time. The time that the Integration Service finishes executing the
task or workflow.
Status. The status of the task or workflow.

You can perform the following tasks in Task view:

Filter tasks. Use the Filter menu to select the tasks you want to display or hide.
Hide and view columns. Hide or view an entire column in Task view.
Hide and view the Navigator. You can hide the Navigator in Task view. Click
View > Navigator to hide or view the Navigator.

To view the tasks in Task view, select the Integration Service you want to monitor
in the Navigator.

Filtering in Task View

In Task view, you can view all or some workflow tasks. You can filter tasks in the
following ways:

By task type. You can filter out tasks you do not want to view. For example, if
you want to view only Session tasks, you can filter out all other tasks.
By nodes in the Navigator. You can filter the workflow runs in the Time
window by selecting different nodes in the Navigator. For example, when you
select a repository name in the Navigator, the Time window displays all
workflow runs that ran on the Integration Services registered to that repository.
When you select a folder name in the Navigator, the Time window displays all
workflow runs in that folder.
By the most recent runs. To display by the most recent runs, click Filters >
Most Recent Runs and select the number of runs you want to display.
By Time window columns. You can click Filters > Auto Filter and filter by
properties you specify in the Time window columns.
Workflow Monitor Tips

Reduce the size of the Time window.

When you reduce the size of the Time window, the Workflow Monitor refreshes
the screen faster, reducing flicker.

Use the Repository Manager to truncate the list of workflow logs.

If the Workflow Monitor takes a long time to refresh from the repository or to open
folders, truncate the list of workflow logs. When you configure a session or
workflow to archive session logs or workflow logs, the Integration Service saves
those logs in local directories. The repository also creates an entry for each
saved workflow log and session log. If you move or delete a session log or
workflow log from the workflow log directory or session log directory, truncate the
lists of workflow and session logs to remove the entries from the repository. The
repository always retains the most recent workflow log entry for each workflow.

Table 22-11 describes the attributes that appear in the Source/Target Statistics
area:

Table 22-11. Workflow Monitor Source and Target Statistics Attributes

Attribute Name Description
Transformation Name of the source qualifier instance or the target instance in the
Name mapping. If you create multiple partitions in the source or target,
the Instance Name displays the partition number. If the source or
target contains multiple groups, the Instance Name displays the
group name.
Node Node running the transformation.
Applied Rows* For sources, shows the number of rows the Integration Service
successfully read from the source. For targets, shows the
number of rows the Integration Service successfully applied to
the target.
Affected Rows* For sources, shows the number of rows the Integration Service
successfully read from the source.
For targets, shows the number of rows affected by the specified
operation. For example, you have a table with one column called
SALES_ID and five rows contain the values 1, 2, 3, 2, and 2. You
mark rows for update where SALES_ID is 2. The writer affects
three rows, even though there was one update request. Or, if you
mark rows for update where SALES_ID is 4, the writer affects 0
rows.
Rejected Rows Number of rows the Integration Service dropped when reading
from the source, or the number of rows the Integration Service
rejected when writing to the target.
Throughput Rate at which the Integration Service read rows from the source
(Rows/Sec) or wrote data into the target per second.
Throughput Estimated rate at which the Integration Service read data from
(Bytes/Sec) the source and wrote data to the target in bytes per second.
Throughput (Bytes/Sec) is based on the Throughput (Rows/Sec)
 and the row size. The row size is based on the number of
columns the Integration Service read from the source and wrote
to the target, the data movement mode, column metadata, and if
you enabled high precision for the session. The calculation is not
based on the actual data size in each row.
Bytes Total bytes the Integration Service read from source or wrote to
target. It is obtained by multiplying rows/sec and the row size.
Last Error Code Error message code of the most recent error message written to
the session log. If you view details after the session completes,
this field displays the last error code.
Last Error Most recent error message written to the session log. If you view
Message details after the session completes, this field displays the last
error message.
Start Time Time the Integration Service started to read from the source or
write to the target.
The Workflow Monitor displays time relative to the Integration
Service.
End Time Time the Integration Service finished reading from the source or
writing to the target.
The Workflow Monitor displays time relative to the Integration
Service.
* For a recovery session, this value lists the number of rows the Integration
Service affected or applied to the target after recovery. To determine the number
of rows processed before recovery, see the session log.

Viewing Partition Details

The Partition Details area displays information about partitions in a session.

When you create multiple partitions in a session, the Integration Service provides
session details for each partition. Use these details to determine if the data is
evenly distributed among the partitions. For example, if the Integration Service
moves more rows through one target partition than another, or if the throughput
is not evenly distributed, you might want to adjust the data range for the
partitions.

Table 22-12 describes the attributes that appear in the Partition Details area:

Table 22-12. Workflow Monitor Partition Details Attributes

Attribute Name Description
Partition Name Name of the partition.
Node Node running the partition.
Transformations Transformations in the partition pipeline.
Process ID Process ID of the partition.
CPU % Percent of the CPU the partition is consuming during the
current session run.
CPU Seconds Amount of process time in seconds the CPU is taking to
process the data in the partition during the current session run.
Memory Usage Amount of memory the partition consumes during the current
session run.
Input Rows Number of input rows for the partition.
Output Rows* Number of output rows for the partition.
* For a recovery session, this value lists the number of rows the Integration
Service processed after recovery. To determine the number of rows processed
before recovery, see the session log.

Viewing Performance Details

The performance details provide counters that help you understand the session
and mapping efficiency. Each source qualifier and target definition appears in the
performance details, along with counters that display performance information
about each transformation.

You can view session performance details in the following formats:

Workflow Monitor. When you configure the session to collect performance

details, you can view them in the Workflow Monitor. When you configure the
session to store performance details, you can view the details for previous
sessions.
Performance details file. The Integration Service creates a performance detail
file for the session when it completes. Use a text editor to view the performance
details file.

By evaluating the final performance details, you can determine where session
performance slows down. The Workflow Monitor also provides session-specific
details that can help tune the following memory settings:

Buffer block size

Index and data cache size for Aggregator, Rank, Lookup, and Joiner
transformations

To view performance details in the Workflow Monitor:

1.Right-click a session in the Workflow Monitor and choose Get Run Properties.
2.Click the Performance area in the Properties window.
The following table describes the attributes that appear in the Performance area:
Attribute Name Description
Performance Counter Name of the performance counter.
Counter Value Value of the performance counter.
When you create multiple partitions, the Performance Area displays a column for
each partition. The columns display the counter values for each partition.
3.Click OK.

To view the performance details file:

1.Locate the performance details file.

The Integration Service names the file session_name.perf, and stores it in the
same directory as the session log. If there is no session-specific directory for the
session log, the Integration Service saves the file in the default log files directory.
2.Open the file in any text editor.

Configuring Performance Details
Understanding Performance Counters

All transformations have some basic counters that indicate the number of input
rows, output rows, and error rows.

Source Qualifier, Normalizer, and target transformations have additional counters

that indicate the efficiency of data moving into and out of buffers. Use these
counters to locate performance bottlenecks.

Some transformations have counters specific to their functionality. For example,

each Lookup transformation has a counter that indicates the number of rows
stored in the lookup cache.

When you view the performance details file, the first column displays the
transformation name as it appears in the mapping, the second column contains
the counter name, and the third column holds the resulting number or efficiency
percentage. If you use a Joiner transformation, the first column shows two
instances of the Joiner transformation:

<Joiner transformation> [M]. Displays performance details about the master

pipeline of the Joiner transformation.
<Joiner transformation> [D]. Displays performance details about the detail
pipeline of the Joiner transformation.

When you create multiple partitions, the Integration Service generates one set of
counters for each partition. The following performance counters illustrate two
partitions for an Expression transformation:

Transformation Counter Name Counter

Name Value
EXPTRANS [1] Expression_input rows 8
Expression_output rows 8
EXPTRANS [2] Expression_input rows 16
Expression_output rows 16

Note: When you increase the number of partitions, the number of aggregate or
rank input rows may be different from the number of output rows from the
previous transformation.

Table 22-13 describes the counters that may appear in the Session Performance
Details area or in the performance details file:
