Default Parameters for TermSessionTest

This test reports performance statistics related to Microsoft RDS server user sessions.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the TermSessionTest.

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

  • By default, the IGNORE DOWN SESSION IDS parameter is set to 65536,65537,65538 - these are nothing but the default ports at which the listener component listens. If any of these ports go down, then by default, this test will not count any of the sessions that failed when attempting to connect to that port as a Down session. You can override this default setting by adding more ports or by removing one/more existing ports.

  • By default, the REPORT USING MANAGERTIME flag is set to Yes. This indicates that the user login time displayed in the DETAILED DIAGNOSIS page for this test and in the Thin Client reports will be based on the eG manager's time zone by default. Set this flag to No if you want the login times displayed in the DETAILED DIAGNOSIS page for this test and in the Thin Client reports to be based on the Microsoft RDS server's local time.

  • By default, the REPORT BY DOMAIN NAME flag is set to Yes. This implies that by default, the detailed diagnosis of this test will display the domainname\username of each user who accessed an application on the server. This way, administrators will be able to quickly determine which user logged into the server from which domain. If you want the detailed diagnosis to display only the username of these users, set this flag to No.

  • Once the necessary value has been provided, click on the UPDATE button to register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with "$" indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to "xyz" and $port will be changed to "80" when configuring a test.
