This test closely monitors how the VirtualBox host and hypervisor use the physical memory resources, and warns administrators of potential memory crunches (if any).

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the OraVBoxMemTest.

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

• Specify the name of the user who has the right to access the VirtualBox via SSH in the ORACLE HYPERVISOR USER text box.

• Provide the password of the ORACLE HYPERVISOR USER in the ORACLE HYPERVISOR PASSWORD text box.

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

• This test executes certain privileged VDA (Virtual Desktop Access) commands to pull out the desired metrics from the VirtualBox. To enable the test to run these commands, you first need to install a sudo package on the VirtualBox host. The procedure for installing this package is detailed in Section 1.4.1.2 of Monitoring the Oracle VirtualBox document. Once the package is installed, you need to specify the full path to the install directory of the sudo package in the SUDOCMD text box.

• Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with "$" indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to "xyz" and $port will be changed to "80" when configuring a test.
