    Hi Surabhi,

    I am wondering if you are asking about "Resource Monitoring" feature in PBA!. If yes, resource monitoring feature is not available in PBA. It's available only in standard agents.

    If your question is not about resource monitoring, then:

    Protocol Bridge Agent has the ability to communicate with File servers like FTP/SFTP/FTPS - it can send/receive files to/from these servers. Monitoring of the PBA is same as the standard agent. You can use fteListAgents/fteShowAgentDetails/ftePingAgent commands to know the status of PBA. You can also process the log file output0.log file to understand what's happening with the agent.

    Hope this helps.

    Shashi

    Thank You Shashi for reverting.

    Actually we are using ProtocolBridgeAgents in our project, we observed few files were not transferred for one of the agents and while checking the logs we found below mentioned warning

    " The maximum size to which the Java heap can grow is 512,which is default value.This value may be too low dependent on the agent's work load."

    Apart from that there was no error found in the logs.

    To resolve this issue we restarted the agent and files were transferred but we didn't get to know what was the exact reason for files getting piled up in  the source location.

    Can you please help me to know if we are Missing something?

    Regards,
