Default Parameters for DiskUserQuotaTest

This test monitors how each user to a server is utilizing every disk partition on the server, promptly detects a quota violation, and instantly alerts administrators to the violation. This way, administrators can understand:

  • Which disk is being utilized excessively?
  • Which user is using that disk over the prescribed quota?
  • Which limit has been exceeded - warning? or the hard limit?

Based on these findings, administrators can then investigate the reasons for excessive space usage by a particular user and employ measures to resolve the space crunch.

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

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

  • 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.
