The ThroughputTest aims to monitor and detect situations when the throughput for data transfer to and from a server drops below acceptable levels. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the ThroughputTest.

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

• In the UPLOADSIZE box, define the size of data transferred by the agent to the management console to perform this test. 

• In the DOWNLOADSIZE box, define the amount of data downloaded by the agent from the management console during the course of this test. 

• Specify the eG management console URL that the agent connects to in order to perform this test in the URL text box. 

• In the TIMEOUT text box, specify the amount of time in seconds that this test can run for. Beyond this period, the test terminates with a failure. 

• Once the above value is provided, click on the UPDATE button to register the changes made.
