Default Parameters for DbLogQueueTest

The DbLogQueueTest monitors the usage of the log queue, which is the main memory area that stores redo log entries from transactions. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the DbLogQueueTest.

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed. 

  • The test connects to a database on MaxDB and extracts performance statistics from the system tables in the database. Therefore, provide the name of a database in the DATABASENAME text box.

  • Since users with the SYSDBA privilege alone are allowed access to system tables, specify the name of such a user against USERNAME.

  • The password that corresponds to the USERNAME will have to be specified in the PASSWORD text box.

  • Confirm the password by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with "$" indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to "xyz" and $port will be changed to "80" when configuring a test. .
