How to Configure Process-Level Analytic Sampling Points

You can configure analytic sampling points (process start/stop, activity start/stop) at the individual BPEL process level. Process level configuration only applies to the generation of standard analytics events for the specific BPEL process. It does not impact the generation of user-defined measurement events for the process. User-defined measurements always generate their measurement events, if enabled.

For information about configuring analytics at the SOA composite application level, see How to Configure Composite-Level Analytic Sampling Points.

To configure process-level analytic sampling points:

  1. Access the BPEL process in analytics view as described in How to Access Analytics View.
  2. Above the BPEL process, click the Configure Analytics icon, as shown in Figure 18-31.

    Element Description

    Inherit From Composite Default

    Inherits the analytics setting from the composite level analytics configuration described in How to Configure Composite-Level Analytic Sampling Points.

    Human Workflow Activities Only

    Generates standard analytic events for human task activity events.

    Generate For Interactive(s) Only

    Generates standard analytic events only for interactive process and activity events such as human task events.

    Start and Stop of the BPEL Process Only

    Generates standard analytics events for the starting and stopping of the BPEL process.

    Do not Generate

    Does not generate any standard analytic events.

    Is Primary Process

    Select to inform analytics runtime if the process is one of the primary processes for the SOA composite application.
