Measures reported by LSAppSharingTest

This test monitors the Application Sharing Messaging Conferencing Unit (ASMCU) and reports the current health and draining status of the server. In addition, this test helps you to figure out the number of users connected to the server, the number of active conferences, the number of active sessions and media connections. Using this test, administrators can identify the load on the server and the failures encountered during media transmission and RDP connections.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
HealthState Indicates the current health of the Lync Application sharing Conference Unit (ASMcu). Number The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values have been listed in the table below.

Measure Value Numeric Value
Normal 0
Loaded 1
Full 2
Unavailable 3

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the current health of the ASMcu. However, in the graph of this measure, states will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 0 to 3.

DrainingState Indicates the draining status of the ASMcu. Number The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values have been listed in the table below.

Measure Value Numeric Value
Not requesting to drain 0
Requesting to drain 1
Draining 2

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the draining status of the ASMcu. However, in the graph of this measure, states will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 0 to 2.

HttpStackLoad Indicates the time taken to process all pending items in HTTP stack. Secs A low value is desired for this measure. An abnormally high value for this measure indicates that the server is processing an item that is unending.
As_ActiveConf Indicates the number of active conferences in this server. Number A high value is desired for this measure.
As_ConnecUsers Indicates the number of users currently connected to this server. Number This measure is a good indicator of the load on the server.
ActiveTrans Indicates the number of session s that are currently active on this server. Number  
ActiveChannels Indicates the number of media connections that were active on this server. Number  
PacketLoss Indicates the total number of packets lost in this server. Number Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero.
SipDialogFail Indicates the number of SIP dialogs that failed in this server. Number  
AllocatedBW Indicates the amount of bandwidth allocated for this server during the last measurement period. MB  
MediaFailure Indicates the number of times media transmission timed out on this server. Number  
RdpConFailure Indicates the number of times the RDP connections failed i.e., timed out on this server. Number A high value for this measure indicates connectivity issues which when ignored leads to the degradation of the server.
