Default Parameters for XDVDLoginTest

This test monitors the logins to virtual desktops managed by all controllers in a XenDesktop broker farm and reports the total number of logins and logouts.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the XDVDLoginTest.

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

  • By default, the ISFARMSERVER flag is set to Yes, indicating that the monitored server is the farm server of a controller farm. For a farm server, this test will report metrics at the farm-level - accordingly, a set of metrics will be reported for each controller in the farm. On the other hand, if the monitored controller is only a member of a farm and not the farm server, then set this flag to No. In this case, the test will report metrics for the monitored controller only and not for every controller in the farm.

  • The DDFREQ refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. The DDFREQ refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. Typically, detailed diagnosis frequencies are set globally, using the DIAGNOSIS CONFIGURATION page that appears when the Configure -> Diagnosis menu sequence is followed. This global setting can be overridden at the test-level using the DDFREQ parameter. To disable the detailed diagnosis capability for a test, you can set this parameter to none.

  • 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.
