Measures reported by BobiFSvrStTest
The File Repository server is responsible for the creation of file system objects, such as exported reports, and imported files in non-native formats. An Input FRS stores report and program objects that have been published to the system by administrators or end users. An Output FRS stores all of the report instances generated by the Job Server. In the absence of the File Repository server, these file system objects cannot be stored, resulting in significant loss of reports and program objects. If this loss is to be prevented, then administrators will have to make sure that the File Repository server is always available and is processing requests speedily. To ascertain this, administrators can use the BobiFSvrStTest test.
At configured intervals, this test verifies the overall health, current state, and thread pool usage of the File Repository server, and captures potential performance aberrations well before they occur. This way, the test red flags future anomalies and enables administrators to prevent them from occurring.
The measures made by this test are as follows:
| Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| healthState |
Indicates the current health state of the File Repository server in the monitored node. |
|
The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are discussed in the table below:
| Measure Value |
Numeric Value |
| Danger |
0 |
| Caution |
1 |
| Healthy |
2 |
Note:
By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate the health state of the server. In the graph of this measure however, the same is represented using the numeric values only. |
| serverRunningState |
Indicates the current running state of the File Repository server. |
|
The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are discussed in the table below:
| Measure Value |
Numeric Value |
| STOPPED |
0 |
| STARTING |
1 |
| INITIALIZING |
2 |
| RUNNING |
3 |
| STOPPING |
4 |
| FAILED |
5 |
| RUNNING_WITH_ERRORS |
6 |
| RUNNING_WITH_WARNINGS |
7 |
Note:
By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate the running state of the server. In the graph of this measure however, the same is represented using the numeric values only. |
| serverEnabledState |
Indicates whether/not the File Repository server is enabled. |
|
The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are discussed in the table below:
| Measure Value |
Numeric Value |
| Disabled |
0 |
| Enabled |
1 |
Note:
By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate whether/not the server is enabled. In the graph of this measure however, the same is represented using the numeric values only. |
| busyServerThreads |
Indicates the number of server threads that are currently servicing requests. |
Number |
If this measure reaches the configured maximum thread pool size for the server, new requests to the server would have to wait until a server thread becomes free. If this happens often, it may significantly slowdown request processing by the server. In such a situation, you may want to consider resizing the thread pool. |
