Default Parameters for EndecaSrvStatTest

This test continuously monitors the target Endeca server, reports the time taken for processing admin, config, and user's search queries, and promptly alerts administrators to performance lags in terms of latencies, if any. In addition, this test also reports the time taken for result serialization, reading the request, writing the response, retrieving and storing documents, etc. These metrics help administrators to identify where exactly the processing is delayed and troubleshoot the bottleneck condition at the earliest.

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

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

  • Specify the URL to access the page from which this test will be collecting the required statistics in the PREFSTATURL text box. The default URL will be in the format: http://{Endeca_Server_IP}:8000/admin?op=stats

  • To show the most expensive queries set the SHOW MOST EXPENSIVE QUERIES flag to Yes, or else, set the flag to No. Enable or Disable the Detailed diagnosis to show most expensive queries.

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