Configuration of SqlDbOptions_cfTest

The default parameters associated with this test page 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.

  • The port number to which the oracle server is listening is to be provided in the PORT text box.

  • An MS SQL database user who is assigned te Sysadmin role has to be specified in the USER text box.

  • The password corresponding to the above user has to be entered in the PASSWORD text box.

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

  • In the INSTANCE text box, enter the name of a specific MS SQL instance that is to be monitored. The default value of this parameter is "default". To monitor an MS SQL instance named "CFS", enter this as the value of the INSTANCE parameter. 

  • By default, none is displayed in the DOMAIN text box. If the 'SQL server and Windows' authentication has been enabled for the server being monitored, then the DOMAIN can continue to be none. On the other hand, if 'Windows only' authentication has been enabled, then, in the DOMAIN text box, specify the Windows domain in which the managed MS SQL server exists. Also, in such a case, the USER name and PASSWORD that you provide should be that of a user authorized to access the monitored SQL server host.

  • If the MS SQL server being monitored is an SSL-enabled server, then set the SSL flag to Yes. If not, then set the SSL flag to No.

  • 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.

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.
