Configuration of RemFxUserExpTest

For each remote user connecting to a RemoteFX-enabled Microsoft RDS server, this test measures user experience and reports abnormalities (if any)

The default parameters associated with this test are as follows:

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

  • In the HOST text box, the host name of the server for which the test is to be configured has to be specified.

  • Specify the port used by the Microsoft RDS server in the PORT text box.

  • Specify the name of the user whose performance statistics need to be generated in the USERNAMES text box. Multiple user names can be specified as a comma-separated list. all is used to indicate that all users of the Microsoft RDS server are to be monitored.

  • By default, the REPORT BY DOMAIN NAME flag is set to Yes. This implies that by default, this test will report metrics for every domainname\username. This way, administrators will know which user logged in from which domain. If you want the test to report metrics for every username only, then set this flag to No.

This test works only on Windows 2008 Service Pack 1 (or above).
  • To make diagnosis more efficient and accurate, the eG Enterprise suite embeds an optional DETAILED DIAGNOSIS capability. With this capability, the eG agents can be configured to run detailed, more elaborate tests as and when specific problems are detected. To enable the detailed diagnosis capability of this test for a particular server, choose the ON option. To disable the capability, click on the OFF option.

    The option to selectively enable/disable the detailed diagnosis capability will be available only if the following conditions are fulfilled:

    • The eG manager license should allow the detailed diagnosis capability.
    • Both the normal and abnormal frequencies configured for the detailed diagnosis measures should not be 0.
  • If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of "none" in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
