The BackupSrvcTest checks the availability of the service that corresponds to the Backup SQL server. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the BackupSrvcTest.

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

• The ServiceName text box indicates the name of the service that is to be checked. More than one service name can also be provided with comma as the separator. The default value here is "MSSqlServer".

• Once the necessary values have been entered, 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.

Note:

Before attempting to monitor a Forms server, ensure that its tracing capability is enabled. To know how to enabling tracing for a Forms server, refer to the section on "Configuring Oracle Forms Servers" in the eG Installation Guide.
