Configuration of AppFabricCacheTest

This test auto-discovers each cache on the target Microsoft AppFabric Caching and for each cache, monitors the requests, checks how well the cache processes the requests, and reveals whether cache misses are more. The size of the data retrieved from the cache and the request processing ability of the cache is also reported.

The default parameters associated with this test are as follows:

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

• In the HOST text box, specify the IP address of the host for which this test is to be configured.

• In the PORT text box, specify the port at which the specified Host listens. By default, this will be NULL.

• Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of “none” in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
