Default Parameters for VnxStatmonTest

This test queries every data mover in the VNX for File system for the current status of the statMonService and reports whether the service is currently running or not. If the service is active on a data mover, the test additionally reports the number of incoming network connections to that data mover and the maximum number of network connections that are permitted on that data mover. This way, the test also helps administrators figure out whether/not connection usage is optimal.

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

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

  • The Control Station is the management station for the VNX for File system, and enables control and configuration of the system. The eG agent uses the CLI that runs on the Control Station to monitor and manage the performance of the VNX for File system. To enable the eG agent to use this CLI, specify the IP address of the Control Station in the CONTROLLER STATION IP text box. By default, the IP address of the HOST will be displayed here.

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.
