Default Parameters for HpEvaHPortStsTest

The HpEvaHPortStsTest reports the operational state and overall health for each host port on a controller.

The parameters of this test are as follows:

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

  • Provide the name of the EVA SAN array that has been configured for monitoring in the ARRAYNAME text box.

  • Specify the IP address of the HP EVA SAN in the EVASYSTEMIP text box.

  • Install the SSSU.exe software and specify the full path to the install directory of this software in the SSSULOCATION text box.

  • In the USERNAME and PASSWORD text boxes, provide the user credentials that this test will use to access the target HP EVA SAN.

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

  • In the TIMEOUT text box, indicate the duration (in seconds) for which this test should wait for a response from the storage device. By default, this is set to 120 seconds.

  • Finally, click the Update button.

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.
