Configuration of SfSalesObjTest

This test monitors the standard objects, and reports the count of objects of each type that are currently in the database. Additionally, the test also observes how the population of each object type has been growing over time, and accordingly reports the growth rate of every type. This will point administrators to the object types that will probably require more space in the future than the rest, and thus help them draw out fail-proof capacity plans for the future. The growth rates also reveal to administrators if business is booming or not!

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.

• This test needs to login to the target Salesforce organization as a user with Administrative rights, in order to run API commands on it and pull metrics. To facilitate this connection, specify the email ID of the Administrator of the Salesforce organization in the EMAIL text box.

• Specify the password of the Administrator in the PASSWORD text box.

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

• 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.
