Default Parameters for TermDisconnectsTest

The TermDisconnectsTest measures the number of disconnected Microsoft RDS server sessions.

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

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

• The RECONNECTPERIOD parameter is used by the test while computing the value for the Quick_reconnects measure. This measure counts all the users who reconnected to the Citrix server within the short period of time (in minutes) specified against RECONNECTPERIOD.

• The DD FREQUENCY refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated for this test. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. You can modify this frequency, if you so desire. Also, if you intend to disable the detailed diagnosis capability for this test, you can do so by specifying none against DD FREQUENCY.

• 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 aforesaid 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.
