Default Parameters for GdiViewTest

This test periodically checks the GDI object handles created by each users to the Microsoft RDS server, reports the total number of handles created per user, and promptly notifies administrators if any user is creating more GDI handles than permitted. This way, the test brings probable GDI leaks to the attention of administrators. In addition, administrators can use the detailed diagnosis of the test to know which process is responsible for the GDI leak (if any).

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

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

  • Specify the maximum number of GDI object handles that a user to the Microsoft RDS server can create in the GDILIMIT text box. By default, this value is 10000.

  • Once the necessary values have been entered, clicking on the Update button will 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.
