Default Parameters for vCldTaskExeJobTest

This test provides you with a detailed report on the task executions of the vCloud Director cell. Using this test, you can figure out the following:

  • The number of task invocations during the last measurement period
  • The number of active task invocations
  • The number of task executions that failed and
  • The time taken for executing the task

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

  • 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 resgistered 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.
