Measures reported by ACLoginTest

By tracking user sessions to the AppController, the ACLoginTest test helps administrators gauge the workload of the AppController and quickly capture failed login attempts.

For this test to run and report metrics, the AppController should be configured to create a Syslog file in a remote Syslog server, where the details and status of all user interactions with the AppController will be logged. To configure the Syslog server where this Syslog file should be created, refer to the Monitoring the Citrix AppController document.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
total_login Indicates the total number of users currently connected to the AppController. Number This is a good indicator of the current session load on the AppController.
new_login Indicates the number of users who logged in during the last measurement period. Number  
percent_login Indicates the percentage of users who logged in recently. Percent  
ses_logout Indicates the number of sessions that logged out during the last measurement period. Number A sudden increase in the value of this measure could warrant closer scrutiny.
failed_login Indicates the number of logins that failed. Number A low value is desired for this measure.
