Default Parameters for HTTPSvcURLGroupTest

This test monitors each HTTP Service URL Group of the target server and reveals how well data was transmitted to and from each service URL group. This helps administrators quickly figure out which service URL group is handling too much of data traffic and encountering incoming/outgoing data traffic congestion, if any. This test not only reports the number of attempts to connect to each service URL group, but also the number of connections that are currently established to each service URL group. This way, the test helps administrators identify the service URL group that is handling maximum current connection load and GET/HEAD requests.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the HTTPSvcURLGroupTest.

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed. By default, this is set to 5 minutes.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with “$” indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to “xyz*” and $port will be changed to “80” when configuring a test.
