Configuration of STFLoginTest

At configured intervals, this test emulates a user logging into the StoreFront server. In the process, the test reveals whether/not a user is able to connect to the StoreFront server and also reports the time taken for logging in to the StoreFront server. This way, login failures and unusual slowness in logging in can be captured.

The default parameters associated with this test are as follows:

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

  • In the HOST text box, specify the host for which this test is to be configured.

  • Enter the port number at which the specified host listens to. By default, this is 443.

  • Use the STOREFRONT VERSION flag to choose the version of the target Citrix StoreFront server that is to be monitored.

  • Specify the URL of the target Citrix StoreFront server being accessed in the LOGIN URL text box. For example, you can specify the URL in the following format: http://192.168.9.17/citrix/store.

  • Specify the credentials of a Citrix StoreFront user in the USERNAME and PASSWORD text boxes.

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

  • Indicate whether/not the target Citrix StoreFront server is SSL-enabled. By default, the SSL flag is set to Yes.

  • 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.
