Measures reported by CssGrpSvcTest

A service is a destination location where a piece of content resides physically (a local or remote server and port). While load-balancing content requests to a server group, the Cisco CSS identifies the location from which the requested content is to be provided using the service definitions on that group.

This test reports the current status of the destination services configured for every group, and helps analyze the extent of usage of the service definitions by reporting the number of times each destination service was accessed for content by the Cisco CSS.

 The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Grpsvc_status Indicates the current status of this destination service. Boolean  
Grpsvc_hit_count Indicates the number of times since the last measurement period, user requests to this group load balanced to this service. Number This is a good indicator of the usage of the destination service.
Grpsvc_data_sent Indicates the number of bytes in transmission, which were source NATted using this destination service on this group, during this measurement period. Bytes This is a good indicator of the level of traffic handled by the destination service.
