Configuration of ProLockRequestsTest

>This test indicates the level of locking activity on a database in terms of the number of locks of different modes held by each user and the time taken by each user to hold a RECORD lock and TRANSACTION lock.

The default parameters associated with this test are as follows:

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

• Specify the IP address of the Progress database server, in the HOST text box.

• The port number on which the database server is listening, in the PORT text box. By default, this is NULL.

• Specify the name of the Progress database instance that is to be monitored in the DATABASE NAME text box.

• In order to monitor a Progress database instance, a special database user account has to be created in every Progress database instance that requires monitoring. This special user needs to be granted a set of privileges. To know how to create the database user and grant the required privileges, refer to click here. Specify the name of such a user in the USERNAME text box.

• Enter the password of the specified USERNAME in the PASSWORD text box.

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