Measures reported by CssCntSvcTest

A content rule is a hierarchical rule set containing individual rules that describe which content (for example, .html files) is accessible by visitors to the Web site, how the content is mirrored, on which server the content resides, and how the CSS should process requests for the content. Each rule set must have an owner.

The CSS uses content rules to determine:

  • Where the content physically resides, whether local or remote
  • Where to direct the request for content (which service or services)
  • Which load balancing method to use
  • Owners can have multiple content rules. For each service discovered from the content rules associated with an owner,this test reports the current status of the service and whether the service has been effectively utilized or not.

     The measures made by this test are as follows:
