This test periodically scans the event logs of the target VMware App Volumes Manager for errors/warnings that were registered for each event type and promptly captures and reports those error/warning messages. In addition, this test reveals the number of jobs that were delayed for each event type, the connections that were successful and the connections that failed. Using this test, administrators can identify the connections of the event type that were too slow.

Outputs of the test :One set of results for the events generated for each event type on the target VMware App Volumes Manager being monitored.

Measurement	Description	Measurement Unit	Interpretation
Info_event	Indicates the number of information messages generated for this event type during the last measurement period.	Number	A change in the value of this measure may indicate infrequent but successful operations performed by one or more applications. The detailed diagnosis of this measure if enabled, lists the Event Time, Process ID, Process Type and the Message received.
Warn_event	Indicates the number of warning messages generated for this event type during the last measurement period.	Number	A high value of this measure indicates problems with the broker that may not have an immediate impact, but may cause future problems in the VMware App Volumes Manager. A very low value (zero) indicates that the system is in a healthy state and all applications are running smoothly without any potential problems. The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the Event Time, Process ID, Process Type and the Message received.
Error_event	Indicates the number of error messages received for this event type during the last measurement period.	Number	An increasing trend or high value indicates the existence of problems like loss of functionality or data in one or more applications. The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the Event Time, Process ID, Process Type and the error message received.
Active_req	Indicates the number of active requests received for this event type during the last measurement period.	Number	A low value is desired for this measure.
Delay_jobs	Indicates the number of jobs of this event type that were delayed during the last measurement period.	Number	The jobs may be delayed due to various reasons such as unavailable background work processes, scheduling issues between the originating server and target server, other dependencies etc.
Conn_success	Indicates the number of connections that were successful for this event type during the last measurement period.	Number	Compare the value across event types to figure out the event type for which most of the connections were successful. A low value is desired for this measure.
Conn_fail	Indicates the number of connections that failed for this event type during the last measurement period.	Number	Compare the value of this measure across the event types to figure out the event type for which maximum number of connections failed.
Conn_avgrate	Indicates the average time taken for the connections to be successful for this event type during the last measurement period.	Seconds	A steady increase in the value of this measure is an indication that connectivity issues prevail. Administrators should promptly check the connections from time to time to avoid such issues.
