Default Parameters for EndecaCacheTest

This test closely monitors the cache, tracks the percentage of cache hits, misses and number of lookups, and alerts administrators if the value deviates from the acceptable limits. In addition, the test also reports the count of evictions, number of reinsertions and rejections, time taken for reinsertion, etc. Using the pointers provided by this test, administrators can fine-tune the cache for best performance.

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

• The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

• Specify the URL to access the page from which this test will be collecting the required statistics in the PREFSTATURL text box. The default URL will be in the format: http://{Endeca_Server_IP}:8000/admin?op=stats

• 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.
