Default parameters for JvmFileDescriptorTest

This test reports useful statistics pertaining to file descriptors.

Note:

This test will work only if the target Java application uses the JDK/JRE offered by one of the following vendors only: Oracle, Sun, OpenJDK. IBM JDK/JRE is not supported.

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

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

• For the eG agent to collect metrics from the target IBM WebSphere Liberty server, the local connector should be enabled on the target server. Once the connector is enabled, a com.ibm.ws.jmx.local.address file will be created in the ${server.output.dir}/logs/state folder. The eG agent uses this file to connect to the target server and collect the required metrics from it. Therefore, specify the exact path to this file in the SERVICE URL PATH text box. For example, in case of Windows environments, the Service URL Path can be C:\wlp\usr\servers\server1\logs\state and in case of Linux environments, the SERVICE URL PATH can be /opt/wlp/ur/servers/server1/logs/state.

• Specify the duration (in seconds) for which this test should wait for a response from the target Java application. If there is no response from the target beyond the configured duration, the test will timeout. By default, the TIMEOUT parameter is set to 240 seconds.

• 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.
