Horizon Cluster/Pod Health Test

To ensure smooth operation of the target Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod environment, it is always essential to ensure that all the critical components within the Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod is functioning or operating normally. If any component is not functioning as expected, then, administrators should be alerted to such abnormalities, before the end users accessing the target Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod are affected. The Horizon Cluster/Pod Health test helps administrators identify such problematic components based on the error/warning issues detected for each component.

This test auto-discovers each component category configured on the target Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod and for each component category, reports the count of error/warning/unknown issues on the target Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod. Using this test, administrators can identify the component category that has frequently experienced error issues.

Target of the test : An Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod

Agent deploying the test : A remote agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each component category configured on the target Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod being monitored

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameter Description

Test Period

How often should the test be executed.

Host

The host for which the test is to be configured.

Port

Refers to the port used by the target Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod. By default, this is set to NULL.

Connection Server Name

By default, this test connects to every Horizon Connection Server configured in the Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod remotely and collects the required metrics. For this, it is necessary to specify valid credentials of the Horizon Connection Servers. To help administrators provide these credentials quickly and easily, the eG administrative interface embeds a special configuration page. To access this page, simply click on the encircled '+' icon that appears alongside this parameter in the test configuration page. To know how to use this special page, refer to Configuring the Omnissa Horizon Connection Servers for Monitoring.

User Name, Password and Confirm Password

By default, this test uses Omnissa Restful APIs to collect the required metrics from the target Omnissa Horizon Cluster/Pod. For this, the eG agent should be configured with read-only user privileges that will allow the agent to communicate with the Horizon Connection Server in a particular domain and extract statistics. Therefore, specify the credentials of the user who is authorized to access the Horizon Connection Server against the User Name, Password and Confirm Password text boxes.

Domain Name

Specify the name of the domain to which the Horizon Connection Server belongs to.

Measurements made by the test
Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation

Total count

Indicates the total number of health issues detected for this component category.

Number

 

Healthy count

Indicates the number of times this component category was healthy.

Number

 

Error count

Indicates the number of times Error issues were detected for this component category.

Number

Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero.

Compare the value of this measure across component categories to identify the component category that is encountering frequent error issues.

Warning count

Indicates the number of times Warning issues were detected for this component category.

Number

Compare the value of this measure across component categories to identify the component category that has encountered maximum waring issues.

Unknown count

Indicates the number of times Unknown issues were detected for this component category.

Number
