Default Parameters for HrznUagStatusTest

This test measures the availability and responsiveness of the target gateway appliance.

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

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

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

  • This test emulates a user accessing the HTTP/S URL of a connection server, and in the process, reports the availability and responsiveness of that server. To establish this connection and report metrics, the test requires read-only permissions. Therefore, configure the credentials of a read-only user in the USERNAME and PASSWORD parameters. Confirm the Password by retyping it in the CONFIRMPASSWORD text box.

  • By default, the appliance is SSL-enabled. This is why, the SSL flag is set to Yes by default. In case the appliance is not SSL-enabled, then set this flag to No.

  • Once the above values are 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.
