Default Parameters for AzrSrvcBusTest

This test auto-discovers the service buses that have been configured for the target subscription. For each service bus, the test then tracks the operational and provisioning status of that bus, and alerts administrators if either status is abnormal. Likewise, the test keeps an eye out for service bus errors and instantly captures and reports such errors, so that administrators can immediately initate corrective action. Additionally, the test also notifies administrators if requests to any service bus are throttled due to lack of sufficient processing capacity. This enables administrators to quickly identify service buses that require a capacity-reset.

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

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

• Specify the GUID which uniquely identifies the Microsoft Azure Subscription to be monitored in the SUBSCRIPTION ID text box.To know the ID that maps to the target subscription, click here.

• Specify the Directory ID of the Azure AD tenant to which the target subscription belongs in the TENANT ID text box. To know how to determine the Directory ID/Tenant ID, click here.

• The eG agent communicates with the target Microsoft Azure Subscrption using Java API calls. To collect the required metrics, the eG agent requires an Access token in the form of an Application ID and the client secret value.Specify the Application ID of the created Application in the CLIENT ID text box. To know how to determine the Application ID ,click here. Specify the client secret value in the CLIENT PASSWORD text box. To obtain the client secret value, click here.

• Confirm the CLIENT PASSWORD by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

• In some environments, all communication with the Azure cloud be routed through a proxy server. In such environments, you should make sure that the eG agent connects to the cloud via the proxy server and collects metrics. To enable metrics collection via a proxy, specify the IP address of the proxy server and the port at which the server listens against the PROXY HOST and PROXY PORT parameters. By default, these parameters are set to none , indicating that the eG agent is not configured to communicate via a proxy, by default.

• If the proxy server requires authentication, then, specify a valid proxy user name and password in the PROXY USERNAME and PROXY PASSWORD parameters, respectively. Then, confirm the password by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

• 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.
