eG Monitoring
 

Measures reported by EgMailTrackTest

By default, the eG manager alerts administrators regarding abnormalities that arise in their environment through Emails and SMS messages. In environments where eG Enterprise monitors a large number of components, it is impossible for administrators to manually track whether/not the mails/messages have been successfully delivered to the designated recipients. To aid administrators track the delivery of emails/messages with ease, eG Enterprise offers the EgMailTrackTest

This test tracks the Email/SMS message communication from the eG manager and reports the total count of emails and messages sent. This way, this test reveals the mail/messages traffic handled by the eG manager. The test further reveals the count of mails/messages that failed, thus promptly alerting administrators to mail delivery failures. Using this test, administrators can figure out the mail threads that were utilized for sending mails from the eG manager. In the process, this test also reveals the average and maximum time taken for sending out mails.
