Default Parameters for CtxFASUserCertTest This test monitors the user certificates managed by Citrix FAS, tracks the usage of these certificates, and reports the count of users who were issued certificates. The test also reports the number of expired certificates, with detailed diagnosis throwing light on which certificates expired and when. This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for CtxFASUserCertTest. The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed. By default, this is set to 5 minutes. The detailed diagnosis of the Total_Users measure, if enabled, provides detailed information regarding all certificates that Citrix FAS issued to users. In a typical Citrix environment, the Citrix FAS could be managing certificates for hundreds or even thousands of users. In such environments, the detailed metrics of the Total_Users measure, if collected, may put considerable strain on the eG database. This is why, by default, eG Enterprise DOES NOT provide detailed metrics for the Total_Users measure. Accordingly, the SHOW TOTAL USER DD flag is set to No. However, if you have a well-sized, well-tuned eG database, then you can set this flag to Yes, and enable the collection of detailed diagnostics for the Total Users measure. Once the above values are provided, click on the UPDATE button to 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.
