## IB Monitor

**URL:** `/ibmonitor`

The IB Monitor shows the real-time status of PeopleSoft Integration Broker message traffic. Open it when an integration is failing or messages aren't moving.

### What You Can Do

- **View Transactions:** Monitor Integration Broker operation instances, publication contracts, and subscription contracts.
- **Filter and Search:** Filter message traffic by status, operation name, node, and date range.
- **Analyze Failures:** See detailed information for each transaction, including status, timestamps, and error messages.
- **View Payload:** Drill into individual transactions to see full request/response details.

### When It's Useful

- Investigating why an integration isn't working.
- Checking whether messages are being processed.
- Responding to IB alert notifications from the dashboard.
- Auditing message traffic for a specific operation.

### Integration Broker Alerts

Six alert types monitor the Integration Broker automatically:

**Error and Timeout alerts** (look back over a configurable window):

- **[IB Operation Errors](/docs/alerts/integration-broker/ib-operation-errors/)** — Finds async operations in Error or Timeout status.
- **[IB Publication Contract Errors](/docs/alerts/integration-broker/ib-pub-contract-errors/)** — Finds pub contracts in Error or Timeout status.
- **[IB Subscription Contract Errors](/docs/alerts/integration-broker/ib-sub-contract-errors/)** — Finds sub contracts in Error or Timeout status.

**Stalled alerts** (find messages stuck too long in New or Working status):

- **[IB Operations Stalled](/docs/alerts/integration-broker/ib-operation-stalled/)** — Operations stuck in New or Working.
- **[IB Publication Contracts Stalled](/docs/alerts/integration-broker/ib-pub-contract-stalled/)** — Pub contracts stuck in New or Working.
- **[IB Subscription Contracts Stalled](/docs/alerts/integration-broker/ib-sub-contract-stalled/)** — Sub contracts stuck in New or Working.
