Application Sharing Test
This test monitors the Application Sharing Messaging Conferencing Unit (ASMCU) and reports the current health and draining status of the server. In addition, this test helps you to figure out the number of users connected to the server, the number of active conferences, the number of active sessions and media connections. Using this test, administrators can identify the load on the server and the failures encountered during media transmission and RDP connections.
Target of the test : A Microsoft Skype for Business server
Agent deploying the test : An internal/remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for the Microsoft Skype for Business server that is to be monitored.

The values that this measure can report and their corresponding numeric values have been listed in the table below.
Note: By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure Values while indicating the current health of the ASMcu. However, in the graph of this measure, states will be represented using the corresponding numeric equivalents i.e., 0 to 3. |
||||||||||
Draining state |
Indicates the draining status of the ASMcu. |
