Disk Space - OS Test

This test monitors the space usage of every disk partition on a Windows virtual desktop.

Target of the test : A Windows virtual desktop on the cloud

Agent deploying the test : A remote agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results for every combination of user_on_virtual_desktop:disk_partition

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameter	Description
Test Period	How often should the test be executed.
Host	The nick name of the Cloud Desktops component for which this test is to be configured.
Port	Refers to the port at which the specified host listens to. By default, this is NULL.
Inside View Using	To obtain the 'inside view' of performance of the cloud-hosted Windows desktops - i.e., to measure the internal performance of the Windows virtual desktops - this test uses a light-weight eG VM Agent software deployed on each of the desktops. Accordingly, this parameter is by default set to eG VM Agent (Windows).
Report Powered OS	This flag is relevant only for those tests that are mapped to the Inside View of Desktops layer. If this flag is set to Yes (which is the default setting), then the 'inside view' tests will report measures for even those Windows virtual desktops that do not have any users logged in currently. Such desktops will be identified by their name and not by the username_on_virtualdesktopname. On the other hand, if this flag is set to No, then this test will not report measures for those Windows virtual desktops to which no users are logged in currently.
Is Cloud VMs	Since this test runs for a 'Cloud Desktops' component, this flag is set to Yes by default.

Measurements made by the test
Measurement	Description	Measurement Unit	Interpretation
Total capacity	Indicates the total capacity of a disk partition.	MB
Used space	Indicates the amount of space used in a disk partition.	MB
Free space	Indicates the current free space available for each disk partition of a system.	MB
Percent usage	Indicates the percentage of space usage on each disk partition of a system.	Percent	A value close to 100% can indicate a potential problem situation where applications executing on the guest may not be able to write data to the disk partition(s) with very high usage.
