Default Parameters for DeploymentStatusTest

For each WAR/JAR file deployed on the target WildFly JBoss server, this test reports the current deployment status. In addition, this test also reports whether/not each WAR/JAR file is enabled and the deployment is managed or not. This way, the test helps administrators to be forewarned on any unpredicted issues before it hits the application performance.

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

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

  • If the WildFly JBoss server being monitored is an SSL-enabled server, then set the SSL flag to Yes. If not, then set the SSL flag to No.

  • Specify whether the server to be monitored is currently running in Domain Mode or not in the IS JBOSS RUNNING IN DOMAIN MODE? parameter. By default, this flag is set to No which implies that the server is currently running in Standalone Mode. If you have started the target JBoss server using the default web profile configuration in domain mode i.e, if you have executed the ./domain.sh command from the <JBoss_INSTALL_DIR>/bin directory, then specify Yes against this flag.

  • Specify whether the target server to be monitored is a master or a slave in a JBoss cluster in the JBOSS HOST NAME parameter. By default, none will be specified here which implies that the target JBoss server is a standalone server. Refer to Identifying the host name and server instance name of the WildFly JBoss server running in Domain mode to know how to identify whether the target server is a master or slave in your environment.

  • Specify the name of the server instance that is to be monitored in JBOSS SERVER INSTANCE NAME text box. By default, none will be specified here. Refer to Identifying the host name and server instance name of the WildFly JBoss server running in Domain mode to identify the name of the server instance that is to be monitored.

  • Specify the credentials of the user who is authorized to access the management console of the target JBoss server in the MANAGEMENT USER and MANAGEMENT PASSWORD text box. To create a new user, refer to Creating a new management user in the WildFly JBoss server of this document.

  • Confirm the Management Password by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD textbox.

  • 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.
