Measures reported by ODBMsgCenTest

To keep track of upcoming feature releases or issues, you have to go to Message center in Office 365. That's where official announcements are posted about new and changed features to enable you to take a proactive approach to change management. Each post gives you a high-level overview of a planned change and how it may affect your users, and links out to more detailed information to help you prepare. It is therefore imperative that you are instantly alerted to every new message that is posted in the Message Center. This is exactly what the ODBMsgCenTest does!

This test reports the count of active communications in the message center. Every time this count gets incremented, the test automatically alerts you to the same, thus quickly turning your attention to new announcements in the message center. Detailed diagnostics provided by this test provide the complete details of these new communications, so that you can figure out what change has been planned and can prepare for it.

Note:

This test uses the Microsoft Graph API. Tests that use Microsoft Graph API may not start reporting metrics right away. Sometimes, they may go without reporting metrics for over 48 hours. This is normal behavior, and it occurs because, Microsoft does not collect/refresh the metrics as frequently as the test executes.

Outputs of the test: One set of results for the target Microsoft OneDrive for Business being monitored.
