Default Parameters for ActDirChecksTest

This test executes the DCDIAG command at configured intervals, and based on the output of the command, discovers the DCDIAG health checks that were performed, and the current status of each check - whether it reported a success or an error.

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

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

  • In order to execute the DCDIAG command, the eG agent has to be configured with a domain administrator's privileges. Therefore, specify the domain name and login credentials of the domain administrator in the DOMAIN, USERNAME and PASSWORD text boxes. Confirm the PASSWORD you provide by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

  • 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.
