The FRSEvtLogTest reports statistical information about the File Replication Service events recorded in the File Replication Service event log. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the FRSEvtLogTest.

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

• In the LOGTYPE text box, specify the type of event logs to be monitored. The default value is application.

• While configuring this test for a specific component, you will have the following options:

  • Manually specify the event sources, IDs, and descriptions to be monitored, or,
  • Select a filter policy within which the event sources, IDs and descriptions to be monitored have been pre-defined

  If you want the first option to be the default selection for all Eventlog components that are managed subsequently, then set the POLICY FILTER flag to false. If you want the second option to be the default, then set the POLICY FILTER flag to true.

• In the FILTER text box, mention the filter policy to be selected by default for all Eventlog components managed henceforth.

• The eG agent can either use WMI to extract event log statistics or directly parse the event logs using event log APIs. If the USEWMI flag is Yes, then WMI is used. If not, the event log APIs are used. This option is provided because on some Windows 2000 systems (especially ones with service pack 3 or lower), the use of WMI access to event logs can cause the CPU usage of the WinMgmt process to shoot up. On such systems, set the USEWMI parameter value to No.

• Once the necessary value has been been provided, click on the Update button to register the changes made.
