Configuration of HPStOReNASPfTest

This test reports real-time metrics of the volume of data received by and transmitted from the NAS for replication per second. This test also throws light on the count of target replication job sessions and the source replication job sessions established on the NAS.

The default parameters associated with this test are:

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

  • In the HOST text box, specify the host for which this test is to be configured.

  • In the PORT text box, specify the port at which the specified HOST listens.

  • By default, the eG agent executes REST APIs on the target HPE StoreOnce Backup system to collect the required metrics. For the eG agent to execute the REST APIs, a special user with user role is required. Specify the credentials of such a user in the USERNAME and PASSWORD text boxes.

  • Confirm the password by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box. 

  • Specify the duration (in seconds) beyond which the test will timeout in TIMEOUT SECONDS text box. The default value is 120 seconds.

  • A service set is a collection of services such as Virtual Tape Library(VTL), Network Attached Storage(NAS), Replication and StoreOnce Catalyst. There is one instance of each service per service set. By default, the target HPE StoreOnce Backup system is associated with a service set. Therefore, the SERVICE SET parameter is set to 1 by default. If you are monitoring multiple HPE Storeonce Backup systems in your environment, then, specify the exact number associated with the SERVICE SET that is assigned to each HPE StoreOnce Backup system that is to be monitored.

  • If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of “none” in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
