Measures reported by ShareFileDevTest
Administrators should keep an eye on the devices that are actively using the ShareFile account, so that sudden/unexpected spikes in the count of active devices can be detected and the reasons investigated. This load-focus also helps administrators understand how effectively their device licenses have been utilized, so that they can precisely tell when more licenses will have to be purchased. The status of these devices should also be tracked at regular intervals, so that administrators know which devices continue to be a threat to the Sharefile environment and for which ones the ban can be lifted.
To perform all the aforesaid checks, the ShareFileDevTest test can be used! This test keeps tabs on the devices that are active on the ShareFile account at any given point in time, and thus points to the current device load on ShareFile. Moreover, the test reveals the number and names of devices that have been locked, wiped, or waiting to be wiped, so that administrators can accurately identify those devices (if any) for which such restrictions can be revoked and those on which they need to be maintained.
The measures made by this test are as follows:
| Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| act_dev_cnt |
Indicates the number of devices that are active on/connected to Sharefile. |
Number |
This measure reports the count of devices that have connected to ShareFile at least once in the configured number of DAYS.
To know which are the active devices, use the detailed diagnosis of this measure. |
| reg_dev |
Indicates the number of devices that registered with ShareFile during the last measurement period. |
Number |
|
| lock_cnt |
Indicates the number devices that are locked currently. |
Number |
If the device is lost, but administrators are not sure it was stolen, they can remotely “lock” the device.
Use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know which devices have been locked. |
| req_wipe_cnt |
Indicates the number of devices for which a wipe has been requested currently. |
Number |
If a device is stolen or lost, administrators can send a request to have all data on that device erased. To know the devices for which such wipe requests have been sent, use the detailed diagnosis of this measure. |
| comp_wipe_cnt |
Indicates the number of devices on which data has been erased. |
Number |
Use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know from which devices data has been wiped. |
| dev_cnt |
Indicates the total number of devices registered with ShareFile. |
