Jobs Schedule Test

This test helps the administrators to identify the total number of jobs that are scheduled in the target Commvault Backup server for each job type (for e.g., backup jobs, admin jobs, restore jobs etc). Using this test, administrators can figure out the type of job that is most frequently scheduled and the time at which the jobs were scheduled.

Target of the test : A Commvault Backup server

Agent deploying the test : An internal agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the target Commvault Backup server that is to be monitored.

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameter	Description
Test Period	How often should the test be executed.
Host	The IP address of the target server that is being monitored.
Commvault ID and Commvault Password	By default, the eG agent executes CLI Commands on the target Commvault Backup server to collect the required metrics. For the eG agent to execute the CLI commands, a special user with monitoring privilege is required. Specify the credentials of such a user in the Commvault ID and Commvault Password text boxes.
Confirm Password	Confirm the password by retyping it here.
Base Installed Location	By default, the CLI commands that need to be executed by the eG agent will be located within a folder called 'Base' within the install directory of the target Commvault Backup server. For the eG agent to execute the commands, specify the full path to the Base folder against the Base Installed Location parameter. For example, the full path to the Base folder can be specified as: C:\\Program Files\\Commvault\\Contentstore\\Base.
Detailed Diagnosis	To make diagnosis more efficient and accurate, the eG suite 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.

Measurements made by the test
