Measures reported by CtxSDXXenHHWTest

Hardware resources such as CPU, memory, NICs, disks, etc., are crucial to the uninterrupted functioning of the SDX appliance. If even one of these hardware components experiences errors or deviates from their normal behavior, it is bound to adversely impact the overall health and availability of the SDX appliance. This is why, it is imperative that administrators receive instant notifications of any abnormality related to the hardware resources. For this purpose, administrators can use the CtxSDXXenHHWTest test.

This test monitors and reports the operational state and overall health condition of each hardware resource such as CPU, disk, interface, etc. In the process, the test promptly captures and reports hardware-related abnormalities and ensures the timely intervention of administrators.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each CPU core of the target NetScaler SDX.

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Status Indicates the current state of this hardware resource.   The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values have been listed in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Ok 100
Error 0

If the value of this measure is ‘Error’ for a resource, it indicates a deviation from the expected value.

Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values to indicate the current state of a hardware resource. However, in the graph of this measure, the Measure Values will be represented using their corresponding numeric equivalents only.

Current_value Indicates the current value of this hardware resource. Number  
Expected_value Indicates the expected value for this hardware resource Number A high value is desired for this measure.
