Default Parameters for SolFireDrivTest

This test auto-discovers the drives of the SolidFire storage system and reports the status, space utilization and processing ability of each of the drives. This enables administrators to proactively detect a potential slowdown in processing or a probable drive contention, identify which drive is contributing to these abnormal phenomena, and intervene to ensure that the problem is resolved before it spirals out of control.

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

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

• Specify the API version of the SolidFire storage system to be monitored in SOLIDFIRE API VERSION textbox.

• Provide the credentials of a user who has been assigned with a Monitor role to access the SolidFire storage system in the SOLIDFIRE USERNAME and SOLIDFIRE PASSWORD text boxes.

• Confirm the SOLIDFIRE PASSWORD by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

• Once the above values are provided, click on the UPDATE button to 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.
