This test is used to collect the basic informations of the virtualcenter with respect to Database,License and server.

The default parameters associated with this test are as follows:

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

• In the HOST text box, the host name of the server for which the test is to be configured has to be specified.

• Specify the PORT at which the above-mentioned HOST listens. By default, this is NULL.

• If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

• Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the Update button will register the changes made and the selected server will move over to the CONFIGURED COMPONENTS panel.

• The test parameters for an already configured server can be reconfigured using the Reconfigure button. The parameter configuration page reappears and the required changes can be made to the existing values of the parameters.

• If the test under consideration is not to be executed for any of the configured servers, they can be removed from the list using the Exclude button doing which will move the server to the EXCLUDED COMPONENTS panel.

• Clicking on the Include button in this panel will add the excluded server to the list of servers to be configured.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of "none" in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
