If you want to profile the CoreOne Suite you can simply activate the appropriate tracing in the configuration. F

Step 1 -

...

Prepare your OpenTelemetry infrastructure

...

You will need an Open Telementry Collector and a data visualization tool such as ELK-stack and APM.

Step 2 -

...

Configure OpenTelemetry in CoreOne

Frontends

Each of the frontends front-ends has an application configuration file. I.e C:\ProgramData\itsense\Configuration when installed as a Windows Services.
These are the files that matter:

In that file, you can add the following settings (by using Machine Crypto of COS Configuration Manager) :

  "UseOpenTelemetry": true,
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorEndpoint": "https://otlp-gateway-prod-eu-west-2.grafana.net/otlp/v1/traces",
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorMetricsEndpoint": "https://otlp-gateway-prod-eu-west-2.grafana.net/otlp/v1/metrics",
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorHeaders": "Authorization=Basic NjkyODA0...2prd01EUTVPSDA9",
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorProtocol": "HttpProtobuf"

Simple Simply enable OpenTelemetry and configure the appropriate endpoints, headers and the protocol.
Please note that OpenTelemetryCollectorHeaders contains how we authenticate to the telemetry system. This can be a Bearer Token, Basic Auth or an API key. It may also be empty if no authentication is needed.

Backend

For the backend, the settings are stored in the database.

update  "UseOpenTelemetry": false,
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorEndpoint": "https://otlp-gateway-prod-eu-west-2.grafana.net/otlp/v1/traces",
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorMetricsEndpoint": "https://otlp-gateway-prod-eu-west-2.grafana.net/otlp/v1/metrics",
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorHeaders": "Authorization=Basic NjkyODA0OmV5SnJJam9pWXpGbFl6QTFOMlV3TkRBM1l6WTJZamMwT1RBNVpUSm1ZelV3TjJVMFpURmhPVGsxWVdVMVppSXNJbTRpT2lKRVpYWk5aWFJ5YVdOelVIVmliR2x6YUdWeUlpd2lhV1FpT2prd01EUTVPSDA9",
  "OpenTelemetryCollectorProtocol": "HttpProtobuf"

...

config_setting_value 
set int_value  = 0
where config_setting_code_id = 54;

update config_setting_value 
set string_value = 'http://localhost:4318/v1/traces'
where config_setting_code_id = 55;


update config_setting_value 
set string_value = ''
where config_setting_code_id = 56;

update config_setting_value 
set string_value = 'HttpProtobuf'
where config_setting_code_id = 57;

update config_setting_value 
set string_value = 'http://localhost:4318/v1/metrics'
where config_setting_code_id = 58;

Step 3 - Restart for settings to take effect

After you have applied the settings, you will need to restart the appropriate partscorresponding parts:

• For Frontend Applications, the Application Pools within IIS need to be recycled

• For Backend / WF Runner, the corresponding services need to be restarted.
