Default Parameters for CtxNsIsIcaUsrAgTest

This test auto-discovers the types of client devices that are interacting with the applications/virtual desktops, and reports the bandwidth usage of each device type. This way, the test leads administrators to those device types that are consuming bandwidth excessively.

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

• The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed. It is recommended that you set the TEST PERIOD to 5 minutes. This is because, the Nitro API using which the eG agent collects metrics from HDX Insight, is capable of capturing only the performance data related to the last 5 minutes.

• To connect to HDX Insight and collect the metrics it captures, the eG agent needs to be configured with the credentials of a user with read-only permissions to HDX Insight. Type the name of this user against INSIGHT USERNAME text box and the password of this user against INSIGHT PASSWORD text box. Then, confirm the password by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

• By default, HDX Insight is not SSL-enabled. This is why, the SSL flag is set to No by default. If it is SSL-enabled, then change this flag to Yes.

• 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.
