Default Parameters for FCCluSerAppTest

For each service/application that has been configured for high-availability, this test reports the current state of that service/application, thus enabling administrators to figure out if fail-over was successful or not. The test additionally reports the IP state and server state of each service/application and tracks the space usage in the storage mapped to a service/application, thus pointing administrators to the probable cause for service failures. The resources added to every service/application and the current state of the resources is also revealed, so that administrators can determine whether/not the offline state of a resource is causing the dependent service/application to fail.

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

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

  • 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.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, 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.
