Measures reported by HPStOSysTest

This test monitors the current state, overall health, and the storage capacity of the HPE StoreOnce Backup system. With the help of this test, administrators can be proactively alerted to potential failures / slowdowns / problematic conditions.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the HPE StoreOnce Backup system that is being monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
status Indicates the current status of the target backup system.   The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Fault 0
Not started 1
Stopped 2
Not running 3
Initialising 4
FailedToInitialise 5
Shutting down 6
Suspended 7
Terminating 8
FailedToTerminate 9
Removing Drives 10
Running 100
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values only. However, in the graph of this measure, the current status will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents only.

The detailed diagnosis of this measure reveals the Alias, Serial Number, Software version, Deduplication ratio and details on the Primary and Secondary nodes.

repStatus Indicates replication status of the target backup system.   The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Fault 0
Not started 1
Stopped 2
Not running 3
Initialising 4
FailedToInitialise 5
Shutting down 6
Suspended 7
Terminating 8
FailedToTerminate 9
Removing Drives 10
Running 100
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values only. However, in the graph of this measure, the replication status will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents only.

overallStatus Indicates overall status of the target backup system.   The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Fault 0
Not started 1
Stopped 2
Not running 3
Initialising 4
FailedToInitialise 5
Shutting down 6
Suspended 7
Terminating 8
FailedToTerminate 9
Removing Drives 10
Running 100
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values only. However, in the graph of this measure, the overall status will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents only.

housekeepingStatus Indicates current housekeeping status of the target backup system.   Housekeeping is an important process performed on the StoreOnce Backup system to maximize the deduplication efficiency.

The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Fault 0
Not started 1
Stopped 2
Not running 3
Initialising 4
FailedToInitialise 5
Shutting down 6
Suspended 7
Terminating 8
FailedToTerminate 9
Removing Drives 10
Running 100
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values only. However, in the graph of this measure, the housekeeping status will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents only.

healthLevel Indicates the current health of the target backup system.   The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Ok 0
Information 1
Warning 2
Critical 3
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the health. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents of the measure values as mentioned in the table above.

repHealthLevel Indicates the current replication health of the target backup system.   The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Ok 0
Information 1
Warning 2
Critical 3
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the health. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents of the measure values as mentioned in the table above.

overallHealthLevel Indicates the overall health of the target backup system.   The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Ok 0
Information 1
Warning 2
Critical 3
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the health. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents of the measure values as mentioned in the table above.

housekeepingHealthLevel Indicates the current housekeeping health of the target backup system.   The values that this measure can report and the states they indicate are tabulated below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Ok 0
Information 1
Warning 2
Critical 3
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the health. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents of the measure values as mentioned in the table above.

capacityBytes Indicates the total storage capacity of the target backup system. TB  
freeBytes Indicates the amount if storage available for use on the target backup system. TB Ideally, the value of this measure should be high.
usage Indicates the percentage of storage that is utilized on the target backup system. Percent If the value of this measure close to 100, it means that the backup system is running out of storage. Also, it is a warning sign for administrators to add additional resources.
