Configuration of CtxXcXAWMITest

This test emulates a WMI script execution on the target Citrix Virtual Apps server, and in the process, checks the availability of the WMI service and of the namespaces and classes. This way, the test points eG users to the real reason why the eG agent was unable to pull metrics from the target server.

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. By default, this is 6 hours.

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

  • Specify the port at which the specified host listens to in the PORT text box. By default, this is 1494.

  • If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS button will appear in this page. Clicking on this button 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.
