Default Parameters for IfxSessionTest

The IfxSessionTest reports the session related information of an Informix database server. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the IfxSessionTest.

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

• In the INSTANCE text box, specify the Informix server instance being monitored.

• In the DBLOCALE text box, specify the language/locale in which your database is installed. This will allow you to return the query in the language supported by your database. By default this attribute is set to “none”, which means that by default, queries are returned in the English locale.

• In the CLIENTLOCALE text box, specify the language/locale in which the eG agent is running. Normally, when you use an internal agent to monitor Informix, the CLIENTLOCALE and DBLOCALE will be same. However, the CLIENTLOCALE may differ when you are monitoring the Informix tests using a remote agent (agentless monitoring). By default, the CLIENTLOCALE is set to "none", indicating that the eG agent runs in the English locale, by default.

• The DD ROW COUNT parameter allows the user to set the number of rows to be displayed in the detailed diagnosis of the Current_sessions measure. By default this parameter is set to 100. However, the user can change the value of this parameter as required. For example, if the user wants to display 300 rows then the value can be changed to 300.

• Enter a valid Informix user name in the USER text box.

• The password of the specified user should be entered in the PASSWORD text box.

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

• Once the necessary value is provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.
