HAProxy Information Test
This test reports the performance of the HA Proxy server. Using this test, administrators can determine the load on the Proxy server and the memory utilized per process on the Proxy server.
Target of the test : A HA Proxy Server
Agent deploying the test : A remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for the target HA Proxy server being monitored.
| Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
|
Test period |
This indicates how often should the test be executed. |
|
Host |
The host for which the test is to be configured. |
|
Port |
Refers to the port used by the HA Proxy server. By default, this is 9000. |
|
HA Proxy Username |
The user name of the proxy server |
|
HA Proxy Password |
The password of the proxy server |
|
Confirm password |
Confirm the password by retyping it here. |
|
HA Proxy Port |
Refers to the port used by the HA Proxy server. |
|
SSL |
By default, the HA Proxy server is SSL-enabled. Accordingly, the SSL flag is set to Yes by default. This indicates that the eG agent will communicate with the HA Proxy server via HTTPS by default. |
|
HA Proxy Timeout |
Specify the time duration (in seconds) beyond which this test should time out in the HA Proxy Timeout text box. The default is 240 seconds. |
|
System Properties |
By default, eG Enterprise is capable of monitoring the proxy servers that are SSL-enabled. For this, you need to configure the test with separate credentials for accessing the target proxy server. This can be achieved by clicking the |
icon available against this parameter. The System Properties Configuration pop up window then appears. To know how to configure the System Properties for monitoring the SSL-enabled proxy server, refer to | Measurement | Description | Measurement Unit | Interpretation |
