xpi Monitor Essentials
Learn how xpi Monitor works, how to access it, and what operational data it surfaces for project health and performance.
What xpi Monitor Is
xpi Monitor is a modernized replacement for the legacy Magic Monitor interface. It provides a unified dashboard to track project state, infrastructure status, and runtime alerts.
Access and Login
Monitor can be opened through the installation shortcut or a browser URL based on your deployment domain. A default administrator account is created during installation.
Host mapping and environment configuration should be validated before first login.
Azure SSO Option
Azure SSO can be enabled by configuring certificates on the IMM host and updating
config.json values such as clientId,
authority, and redirectUrl.
HTTPS and valid SSL certificates are required when Azure SSO is used.
Dashboard and Runtime Insights
- View status at project-wide and lower-granularity levels.
- Use filters for time-scoped analysis.
- Track alerts related to engine state and IMM health.
- Analyze licensing pressure and queue behavior.
Timezone and License Usage
License usage data can be sampled periodically (default one-minute collection).
Timezone display is configured with the TZ variable in the monitor deployment configuration.
Summary
You should now be able to:
- Describe what xpi Monitor covers operationally.
- Configure authentication options at a high level.
- Use dashboard data to detect runtime bottlenecks.
