Measures reported by GwIaTest

This test reports the performance metrics pertaining to the Groupwise Internet Agent (GWIA). 

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Data_send_rate The rate at which message bytes were sent to the GWIA Bytes/Sec This measure is indicative of the throughput of the GWIA. If this rate is high, it means that the GWIA is processing a high volume of data. A low value indicates a lower throughput.
Data_receive_rate The rate at which message bytes were received from GWIA Bytes/Sec This measure is indicative of the throughput of the GWIA. If this rate is high, it means that the GWIA is processing a high volume of data. A low value indicates a lower throughput.
Msg_send_rate The number of messages sent to the GWIA per second Msgs/Sec This measure is indicative of the throughput of the GWIA. If this rate is high, it means that the GWIA is processing a high volume of data. A low value indicates a lower throughput.
Msg_receive_rate The number of messages received from the GWIA per second Msgs/Sec This measure is indicative of the throughput of the GWIA. If this rate is high, it means that the GWIA is processing a high volume of data. A low value indicates a lower throughput.
Msg_send_error_rate The number of failed transfers to the GWIA per second Msgs/Sec This value should be low or preferably zero. A high value indicates poor performance of the server or incorrect addresses.
Msg_receive_error_rate The number of failed transfers from the GWIA per second Msgs/Sec This value should be low or preferably zero. A high value indicates poor performance of the server or incorrect addresses.
Msgs_in_output_queue The number of messages to be processed by the GWIA. The WPCSOUT directory stores these messages. Number A consistently high value indicates a problem in sending mails. This value should be preferably low. A high value of this measure over a period of time may lead to dead mails and poor performance of the server
Msgs_in_input_queue The number of messages to be processed by the GWIA. The WPCSIN directory stores these messages. Number A consistently high value may be indicative of MTA domain link failure. Check whether all MTAs are running and their link configurations are correct.
Msgs_in_hold_queue The number of messages in the GWHOLD directory that are scheduled for delayed delivery. Number A consistently high value indicates a problem in processing the withheld mails.
Msgs_in_problem_dir The number messages in the GWIA's problem directory (GWPROB). These are usually messages that have been corrupted during transmission or that have the wrong Internet address. Number If this value is too large, recover messages from the GWPROB directory. To perform this recovery, copy the message files from the GWPROB directory into the RECEIVE directory with a new file extension.
