Monitoring channels

Monitoring the health of channels

You can monitor the status of channels as they run.

  1. In the AWS Elemental Conductor Live main menu, choose Channels . Information is color-coded as follows:

    • Yellow background shading indicates that there are active alerts on the channel that you have not yet read and suppressed.

    • Red background shading indicates that the status of the channel is Error.

  2. Display more information if you want:

    • Choose any red icon to go to the Status – Messages page. This page shows all messages for this channel. The error message is shaded red and have the same red icon.

    • Choose any orange icon to go to the Status – Alerts page. This page shows detailed information about any alerts for this channel.

Monitoring channel activity at the node

You can view information about the channel activity that is happening at any worker node.

  1. In the Conductor Live main menu, choose Channels .

  2. Select any channel by its ID or name. The Channels Details page appears.

When a channel is running, information appears in three tabs: Status, Parameters, and Logs.

Elemental Live constantly forwards _eme and _ eme_ve logs to Conductor Live.

Note that channel logs are displayed for 24 hours. Logs that are from 24 hours to one-week old are held in zip files that you can unzip if needed.

Viewing channel history

You can view a summarized history of the channel.

On the Channel Details page, choose History.

Time is shown in the time zone currently configured on the Conductor Live. The timeline captures when a channel gets created, started, and stopped, and also includes node information.
