Default Parameters for MongoIndexTest

This test monitors the queries to a target Mongo database server and reports the count and percentage of queries that are not serviced by indexes - i.e., the count and ratio of queries that are serviced by collection scans. This way, the test brings index-related inadequacies to the surface, and prompts administrators to improve query and over-all database performance by taking the necessary corrective action.

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

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

• The test connects to a specific Mongo database to run API commands and pull metrics of interest. Specify the name of this database in the DATABASE NAME text box. The default value of this parameter is admin.

• 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.
