Default Parameters for ProxHypStorageTest

This test auto-discovers all the storage that are being utilized by the target Proxmox Hypervisor and for each storage, reports the critical measures related to storage space utilization. Using these statistics, administrators can increase the storage capacity before a possible performance deterioration of the VMs hosted on the target hypervisor occurs. In addition, this test also alerts the administrators of inactivity of each storage.

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

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

• Specify the name of the Proxmox node that you wish to monitor in PROXMOX NODE NAME text box. By default, this parameter is set to none indicating that the test monitor all the nodes in the target hypervisor.

• 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.
