Measures reported by CmvltClientStTest

A client is a logical grouping of the software agents that facilitate the protection, management, and movement of data associated with a computer. A CommCell environment comprises of multiple clients whose data is manifestly protected. Each client is associated with a license without which the data of the client could not be protected in the CommCell environment. In dynamic environments, clients may be commissioned/decommissioned on a regular basis. If a client is deconfigured/decommissioned, the data of such a client will not be considered for protection by the CommCell environment. The license of such clients will be released and hence, the client will become inactive. The CmvltClientStTest test helps administrators audit the count of active and inactive clients on a periodical basis.

This test reports the count of active clients and inactive clients in the target Commvault Backup server. Using this test, administrators can easily isolate inactive clients. The detailed diagnostics of this test reveals the operating system of the active/inactive clients. This will help administrators figure out the operating system used by the clients to access the target backup server.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the target Commvault Backup server that is to be monitored.
