Configuration of SfSchdJobTest

This test auto-discovers the different types of scheduled jobs that have been configured, and tracks the execution status of the jobs of each type. While at it, the test indicates how many of the jobs submitted for execution actually ran successfully, and how many did not! The test further reveals the type of jobs that did not complete, and the probable reason for the same - is it because the jobs were blocked? paused? encountered errors? or is it because that jobs are still ‘waiting’ to be executed?

The default parameters associated with this test are:

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

• In the HOST text box, specify the host for which this test is to be configured.

• This test needs to login to the target Salesforce organization as a user with Administrative rights, in order to run API commands on it and pull metrics. To facilitate this connection, specify the email ID of the Administrator of the Salesforce organization in the EMAIL text box.

• Specify the password of the Administrator in the PASSWORD text box.

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

• If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

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

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of “none” in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
