7.4. Non-Metric Observables

This section details the non-metric observable data you can collect from Connext observable resources. This data is used to enable remote debugging in RTI Admin Console.

Each non-metric observable element has a unique name and specifies a general feature of a Connext observable resource. For example, a DataWriter is an observable resource; the non-metric observable element dds_data_writer_qos_reliability specifies the RELIABILITY QosPolicy for the DataWriter.
