eG Monitoring
 

Measures reported by EgThreshLogTest

You can closely track the status of the threshold computation process by enabling logging for that process using the MANAGER SETTINGS page (Configure -> Manager Settings menu sequence) in the eG administrative interface. This will result in the creation of the thresh_log file (in the <EG_INSTALL_DIR>\manager\logs directory), to which the status and errors pertaining to the threshold-related activities will be logged as and when they occur.

This test monitors the thresh_log for errors and provides the complete details of these errors to simplify troubleshooting.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
