Configuring Detailed Diagnosis for a Custom Test added using the Integration Console

This page appears when the Generate button is clicked after selecting the Click here to enable detailed diagnosis for this test check box in the Generate tab of the NEW TEST DETAILS page.

To make diagnosis more efficient and accurate, eG Enterprise embeds an optional detailed diagnostic capability. With this capability, the eG agents can be configured to run detailed, more elaborate tests as and when specific problems are detected. Alternatively, these tests can also be run periodically for proactive monitoring purposes. While adding a new Custom test using Integration Console capability, administrators are permitted to enable the Detailed Diagnosis capability for the test by clicking the Click here to enable detailed diagnosis for this test check box. Using this page, administrators can configure detailed diagnosis for a test.

Note:

The option to enable the detailed diagnosis capability for an IC test will be available only if the following conditions are fulfilled:

• The eG license should enable the detailed diagnosis capability
• Both the normal and abnormal detailed diagnosis frequencies should not be 0.

The Detailed Diagnosis tab page comprises of two sub-tabs, namely, Measure and Generate. If the detailed diagnosis capability has not yet been configured for any measure of the test for e.g., MsFileTest_ex, the Measure tab page will only display a message to that effect. To indicate for which measure of the MsFileTest_ex test, detailed diagnostics should be reported and what type of information should be collected as part of the detailed diagnostics, click the Add New Measure button.

In the MEASURES FOR DETAILED DIAGNOSIS pop up window that appears, select the measure for which detailed diagnostics are required from the Measures for this test drop-down list. For our example, let us configure the File_locks_count measure of the MsFileTest_ex to provide a detailed diagnosis that will reveal the list of open files in the network. Therefore, select File_locks_count from the list. Next, provide a comma-separated list of Column headings under which the detailed diagnosis information will be displayed in the eG monitor interface. Then, provide an appropriate Description of the detailed diagnosis that will be displayed in the detailed diagnosis page of the eG monitor interface. Finally, click on the Add button to apply the selection. A summary of the specification will then be displayed in the Measure tab. You can either Modify the specification or Delete it using the buttons provided therein.

If you want to proceed with the displayed specifications, simply click the Generate sub-tab to specify the implementation of the detailed diagnosis.

The detailed diagnosis implementation must exist in a Java class file whose name is the test name suffixed with “_DD” - e.g., the implementation of detailed diagnosis for the MsFileTest_ex must exist in a class file named MsFileTest_ex_DD.class. The path to this class file has to be mentioned in the Class file text box. If the file exists in a remote location, then click on the Choose button adjacent to the text box to upload the file to the eG manager. Alos, specify any library files using the Library file specification.

Finally, click the Generate buttonto generate the test with detailed diagnosis.
