Searching and investigating sessions

You can search for sessions by time range, session identifier, user name, the status of sessions (active or ended), or some combination of these parameters. You can also define match conditions to create very specific searches.
In the Search Sessions dashboard, you can run a simple search or an expert search to find sessions. You can also rerun the last search, save a search, load and run a saved search, or clear search results.

Defining simple searches for sessions

A simple search enables you to search for sessions using the most frequently-used search criteria. If you want to search for sessions that occurred within a particular time range or hits that match some set of conditions, you need to define an expert search instead.
To define and run a simple session search:
1
In the navigation panel, under Dashboards, click APM > Search > Sessions.
2
Click Simple Search.
3
Specify the search criteria.
 
Table 13. Simple session search criteria
Find sessions that...
In the first list, select the start condition for the search. In the second list, select the time range for the search. If no other options are set, the search returns all sessions occurring within the specified time range.
TIP: An APM Administrator can increase or decrease the maximum time range displayed in the time range list through the Configure Advanced Options > Settings dashboard. See the Search Time Range Limit option under the Archiver Query Settings.

Optional—specify whether you want active or ended sessions. Select this check box and select the state from the list.
Session ID

Defining expert searches for sessions

You can run a search using the same options as a simple search. You can also define a time range or some set of conditions, such as session with a specified duration.
 
* 
NOTE: The Archiver stores session duration in milliseconds, but the UI displays it in seconds. Therefore, if you search sessions based on duration, you may see results that appear to fall outside the search criteria. For example, defining a match condition with “Session Duration > 10” may return search results that appear to match “Session Duration >= 10”. In this case, a session that appears to be equal to 10 seconds actually has a duration greater than 10 seconds, such as 10.4322 seconds, but the UI does not display the decimal places.
To define and run an expert session search:
1
In the navigation panel, under Dashboards, click APM > Search > Session.
2
Click Expert Search.
If you defined a simple search before switching to an expert search, the Expert Search dialog box displays the same values for the options you selected in the Simple Search dialog box.
3
Specify the search criteria.

Understanding search sessions results

When the search ends, the results are displayed in the Search Sessions table. The search parameters appear above the table. If no sessions matched the search parameters, the table is empty.
 
* 
TIP: By default, a session search returns a maximum of 200 sessions. An APM Administrator can change this limit using the Session Search Result Limit setting in the Configure Advanced Options > Settings dashboard.
