Configuration of DFSRepFoldersTest

This test auto-discovers replicated folders and for each folder reports the bandwith saved during replication and tracks the growth in size of the associated staging folders and config and deleted items folders. This way, administrators can proactively detect probable slowdowns in replication. In addition, they can pinpoint what is causing the slowdown and which replication folders will be affected by this.

The default parameters associated with this test are:

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

• Specify the host for which the test is to be configured in the HOST text box.

• Specify the port at which the specified HOST listens to in the PORT text box.

• 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.
