Measures reported by OVMSvrStatusTest
If a user complains that he/she is unable access a VM on an Oracle VM server, more often than not the reason for the inaccessibility is that the server has stopped running. To spot such abnormalities before a user complains, administrators can use the OVMSvrStatusTest test.
This test tracks the status of the Oracle VM server and reports whether it is running or not. In addition, it indicates whether/not the server is in maintenance mode.
The measures made by this test are as follows:
| Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| Server_status |
Indicates the current status of the Oracle VM server. |
|
The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are discussed in the table below:
| Measure Value |
Numeric Value |
| Stopped |
0 |
Running |
1 |
| Starting |
2 |
| Not running |
3 |
Note:
By default, this measure reports one of the values listed under Measure Values to indicate the current status of an Oracle VM server. In the graph of this measure however, the same is represented using the numeric equivalents only. |
| Is_maintance |
Indicates whether/not the server is in maintenance mode. |
|
An Oracle VM Server can be placed into maintenance mode to perform hardware or software maintenance. When an Oracle VM Server is placed in maintenance mode, any virtual machines running on the Oracle VM Server are automatically migrated to other Oracle VM Servers in the server pool, if they are available; otherwise they are stopped.
