The SwapTest reports statistics pertaining to the swap space in the hard disk of a host. This test is available on Solaris, Linux, and HPUX platforms only. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the SwapTest.

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

• Once the necessary value has been entered, 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.
