Default Parameters for vCldActivMQTest

This test reports the health of the message bus connection and helps the administrator to figure out the number of vCloud Director cells that are currently reachable and not reachable.

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

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

  • Specify the port at which the JMX listens for requests from remote hosts in the REMOTE PORT text box.

  • The JNDINAME is a lookup name for connecting to the JMX connector. By default, this is jmxrmi. If you have registered the JMX connector in the RMI registery using a different lookup name, then you can change this default value to reflect the same.

  • If JMX requires authentication only (but no security), then ensure that the USER and PASSWORD parameters are configured with the credentials of a user with read-write access to JMX.

  • Confirm the password by retpying it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD 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.
