Default Parameters for Exc2013StrProTest

This test auto-discovers the client types/protocols communicating with the Exchange store, reports the RPC request load, operational load, and log file load that each client type/protocol imposed on the store, and measures the impact of this load on the processing time, growth, and overall performance of the store. In the process, the test leads administrators to those client types/protocols that could be affecting database performance and how.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the Exc2013StrProTest.

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

• By default, the REPORT BY SUMMARY flag is set to true. This implies that the test will report metrics for only a Summary descriptor, which reveals the overall Exchange store health across all client types/protocols that communicate with the store. If you want the test to report metrics for each client type/protocol that uses the store, then set this flag to false.

• 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.
