Hyper-V VM Replication Health Test
Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V Role introduces a new capability, Hyper-V Replica, as a built-in replication mechanism at a virtual machine (VM) level. Hyper-V Replica can asynchronously replicate a selected VM running at a primary site to a designated replica site across LAN/WAN.
To track the replication status of each VM and promptly capture errors in the replication process, administrators can use the Hyper-V VM Replication Health test.
Note:
This test will report metrics for Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 only.
Target of the test : A Hyper-V / Hyper-V VDI server
Agent executing the test : An internal agent
Output of the test : One set of results for each VM on a Hyper-V host monitored
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Test period |
This indicates how often should the test be executed. |
Host |
Specify the HOST for which this test is to be configured. |
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:

Measures reported by the test:
Measurement | Description | Measurement Unit | Interpretation | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Replication state |
Indicates the replication state of this VM. |
|
The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are as follows:
Note: By default, this measure reports the Measure Values in the table above to indicate replication state. In the graph of this measure however, the same will be represented using the numeric equivalents only. The detailed diagnosis of this measure reports the primary server name, the replica server name, and the current replica server name of a VM. |

Replication health |
Indicates the replication health of this VM. |
|
The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are as follows:
Note: By default, this measure reports the Measure Values in the table above to indicate replication health. In the graph of this measure however, the same will be represented using the numeric equivalents only. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Replication mode |
Indicates the replication mode of this VM. |
|
The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values are as follows:

Last replication time |
Indicates the how much time this VM took to replicate last. |
