This test monitors configured ports on the VMware View server and reports the availability and responsiveness of each port. This way, you can instantly identify unavailable and unresponsive ports on the server.

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

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

• In the TARGETS text box, specify either a comma-separated list of port numbers that are to be tested (eg., 80,7077,1521), or a comma-separated list of port name:port number pairs that are to be tested (eg., JMS:4001,JMSIR:4100). In the latter case, the port name will be displayed in the monitor interface.

• 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.
