Default Parameters for CtxXcXAMCSSDTest

This test tracks the I/O requests to the driver and reports the rate at which the driver reads from or writes into each of the caches and he system disks in order to process these requests. This way, the test reveals whether/not the caches are doing a good job of preventing direct disk accesses. Additionally, the test also closely monitors how the memory in the in-memory cache and the disk space in the cached disk is utilized, and proactively alerts administrators to any potential resource crunch in the caches. This way, the test provides useful sizing pointers to administrators.

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

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

  • 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.
