Measures reported by DockStatusTest

A Docker container created from a Docker image holds everything that is needed for an application to run. In order to create a Docker container, the Docker service should be up and running without a glitch. If the Docker containers cannot be created or if the containers become inaccessible, then the applications running on the containers will be rendered inaccessible to the users causing inconvenience. To avoid such inconvenience to the users accessing the Docker containers, administrators need to constantly monitor the current state of the Docker service. The DockStatusTest test exactly helps administrators in this regard!

This test helps administrators to continuously monitor the Docker service and reports the current state of the service. In addition, this test helps administrators to figure out whether the Docker service is installed and loaded.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the Docker server to be monitored

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Installed Indicates whether/not the Docker service is installed.   The values reported by this measure and their numeric equivalents are available in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
No 0
Yes 1

Note:

This measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above while indicating whether the Docker service is installed or not. However, in the graph of this measure, the state is indicated using only the Numeric Values listed in the above table.
Loaded Indicates whether/not the Docker service is loaded.   The values reported by this measure and their numeric equivalents are available in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
No 0
Yes 1

Note:

This measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above while indicating whether the Docker service is loaded or not. However, in the graph of this measure, the state is indicated using only the Numeric Values listed in the above table.
Active Indicates the current state of the Docker service.   If the Docker service is currently running, then the value of this measure is reported as Active and if the Docker service is not running, then the value of this measure is reported as In active.

The values reported by this measure and their numeric equivalents are available in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
In active 0
Active 1

Note:

This measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above while indicating whether the Docker service is active or not. However, in the graph of this measure, the state is indicated using only the Numeric Values listed in the above table.
