Chapter 59 RTI Monitoring Library

RTI Monitoring Library is a plug-in that enables Connext applications to provide monitoring data. The monitoring data can be visualized with RTI Monitor, a separate GUI application that can run on the same host as Monitoring Library or on a different host.

Monitoring Library is deprecated starting in release 7.1.0. Starting in 7.1.0, the new Connext Observability Framework will support the monitoring use case by providing a way to observe the status of a Connext system in real-time using the new RTI Monitoring Library 2.0. See Chapter 60 RTI Monitoring Library 2.0 .



If you want to start monitoring your deployed systems using a monitoring API, you should use the new library; if you're already using the current Monitoring Library API and plan to move to future Connext releases, you should plan your migration now. RTI will continue to support the current Monitoring Library and RTI Monitor for customers using 6.1.x. This deprecation notice applies to customers using 7.1 and later.

Connext notifies Monitoring Library every time an entity is created/deleted or a QoS is changed. Monitoring Library periodically queries the status of all Connext entities. You can enable/disable monitoring by setting values in the DomainParticipant’s PropertyQosPolicy (programmatically or through an XML QoS profile).
