Default Parameters for ZingJvmMemoryUsage

This test monitors the memory usage of an application running in the Zing VM and reports how that application is utilizing the different portions of the host system's memory resources - this includes System Linux Memory usage, physical memory usage, and System Zing Memory usage. In the process, the test captures and alerts administrators to memory bottlenecks and also pinpoints where the root-cause of the bottleneck lies - is it in the System Linux memory usage? physical memory usage? or System Zing memory usage?

If abnormalities are noticed in the application's System Zing memory usage, then the test provides deeper insights into the System Zing memory portion by reporting how the application is utilizing the Reservable, Pause Prevention, and Contingency memory pools of the System Zing memory. This way, the test accurately isolates that memory pool from which the maximum System Zing memory resources are drained.

Moreover, in the event that the System Zing Memory is used erratically, the test also leads you to the exact process running on the Zing VM that is consuming maximum memory.

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

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

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