Default Parameters for CacheConsoleLogTest

The CacheConsoleLogTest reports the normal, severe, and fatal errors that are logged in the Cache console log file of a monitored Cache instance. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the CacheConsoleLogTest.

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

  • Typically, the Cache console log file will be available in the install directory of a Cache instance. Therefore, in the INSTANCEDIRECTORY text box, specify the name of the instance being monitored and the install directory that holds the Cache console log file of that instance, in the following format: InstanceName:InstallDirectory. In case you want to monitor the console log files pertaining to multiple Cache instances, then provide a comma-separated list of InstanceName:InstallDirectory pairs in the INSTANCEDIRECTORY text box. For example: CACHEWEB:d:\Intersystems\CacheWeb,CACHE2:d:\Intersystems\Cache2.

  • 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.
