Measures reported by CtxCdHypTest

This test reports the status of the connection between the cloud delivery controller and each server that hosts the machines. In the absence of a healthy connection between the two, the controller may not be able to provision machines on-demand.

If users complaint of any delay in the servicing of their machine requests, you may want to use this test to check the connection status between the controller and the server hosting that machine, so that connection errors (if any) can be promptly detected.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each hypervisor with which the target cloud delivery controller communicates.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Conn_state Indicates the status of the connection between the controller and this hosting server.  

This test reports one of the following values to indicate the status of the connection between the controller and a hosting server:

  • On
  • InMaintenanceMode
  • Unavailable

This measure reports the value Yes if a delivery group is available, and reports No if it is not available.

The values reported by this measure and its numeric equivalents are mentioned in the table below:

State Numeric Value Description
On 1 Indicates that the controller is in contact with the hypervisor
InMaintenanceMode 2 Indicates that the hosting server (e.g., XenServer, Hyper-V) through which machines are managed, is under maintenance
Unavailable 3 Indicates that the controller is unable to contact the hypervisor
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the connection status of the controller and the hypervisor. However, in the graph of this measure, the same will be represented using the numeric equivalents - 1 and 0 only.

The detailed diagnosis capability of this measure if enabled, reveals the connection name, connection type, Hypervisor address, the preferred controller, the zone to which the controller belongs, and the user who is accessing the hypervisor.
Is_maintenance_mode Indicates whether the connection between the controller and the hosting server is in maintenance mode.   This measure reports the value Yes if the connection between the controller and the hosting server is in maintenance mode and No if otherwise. The numeric values that correspond to the above-mentioned Measure Values are as follows:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating whether the connection between the controller and the hosting server is in maintenance mode. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents 0 and 1 only.
Is_persistent Indicates whether/not the connection is persistent between the controller and the hosting server.   This measure reports the value Yes if the connection between the controller and the hosting server is persistent and No if otherwise. The numeric values that correspond to the above-mentioned Measure Values are as follows:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating whether the connection between the controller and the hosting server is persistent. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents 0 and 1 only.
Is_support_local_cache Indicates whether the local storage caching is enabled or not.   This measure reports the value Yes if the local storage caching capability is enabled and No if otherwise. The numeric values that correspond to the above-mentioned Measure Values are as follows:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating whether the local storage caching capability is enabled. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents 0 and 1 only.
Is_support_pvs_vms Indicates whether/not the provisioning service is used to create provisioned machines.   This measure reports the value Yes if the if the provisioning service is used to create provisioned machines and No if otherwise. The numeric values that correspond to the above-mentioned Measure Values are as follows:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating whether the provisioning service is used to create provisioned machines. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents 0 and 1 only.
Is_ready Indicates whether/not this connection between the hosting server and the delivery controller is ready.   The numeric values that correspond to the above-mentioned Measure Values are as follows:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Yes 1
No 0
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating whether the connection is ready between the hosting server and the delivery controller. However, the graph of this measure will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents 0 and 1 only.
Machine_count Indicates the number of machines associated with the connection between the hosting server and the delivery controller. Number
