Report by Machine Type	By default, this flag is set to Yes indicating that the individual descriptors of this test - i.e., the delivery groups- are classified based on their machine type; in other words, the delivery groups will be listed either under Server OS Machines or Desktop OS Machines based on their machine type. If you do not want to group the delivery groups based on their machine types, set this flag to No.
Show Site Wide Information	By default, this flag is set to Yes, indicating that the monitored server is the site server of a broker site. For a server which is a site, this test will report metrics at the site-level - accordingly, a set of metrics will be reported for each delivery group managed by every broker in the site. On the other hand, if the monitored broker is only a member of a site and not the site server, then set this flag to No. In this case, the test will not report any metrics.
DD Frequency	Refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated for this test. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time this test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. You can modify this frequency, if you so desire. Also, if you intend to disable the detailed diagnosis capability for this test, you can do so by specifying none against DD frequency.
Detailed Diagnosis	To make diagnosis more efficient and accurate, the eG Enterprise embeds an optional detailed diagnostic capability. With this capability, the eG agents can be configured to run detailed, more elaborate tests as and when specific problems are detected. To enable the detailed diagnosis capability of this test for a particular server, choose the On option. To disable the capability, click on the Off option. The option to selectively enable/disable the detailed diagnosis capability will be available only if the following conditions are fulfilled: The eG manager license should allow the detailed diagnosis capability Both the normal and abnormal frequencies configured for the detailed diagnosis measures should not be 0.
