Solace Temperature Sensors Test

This test auto-discovers the temperature sensors on the target Solace PubSub+ Event Broker and for each temperature sensor, this test reports the current status and temperature. Using this test, administrators can easily figure out the temperature sensors that have failed and are about to fail. This way, administrators can replace the faulty temperature sensors before the hardware components fail. In addition, the temperature recorded by each temperature sensor too can be determined and sensors recording abnormal temperatures can be replaced.

Target of the test : A Solace PubSub+ Event Broker

Agent deploying the test : A remote agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each temperature sensor associated with the hardware components of the target Solace PubSub+ Event Broker

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameter Description

Test Period

How often should the test be executed.

Host

The IP address of the target host for which this test is to be configured.

Port

Refers to the port at which the Solace PubSub+ Event Broker listens to.

UserName and Password

By default, the eG agent executes SEMP ( Solace Element Management Protocol) APIs on the target broker to collect the required metrics. For the eG agent to execute the SEMP APIs, a special user with read only privilege is required. Specify the credentials of such a user in the UserName and Password text boxes. To know how to create such a user, refer to Creating a New User for Monitoring Solace PubSub+ Event Broker.

Confirm Password

Confirm the Password by retyping it in the Confirm Password text box.

SSL

By default, this flag is set to No indicating that the Solace PubSub+ Event Broker is not SSL-enabled by default. Set this flag to Yes if the Solace PubSub+ Event Broker is SSL-enabled.

Measurements made by the test
Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation

Status

Indicates the current state of this temperature sensor.

 

The values reported by this measure and its numeric equivalents are mentioned in the table below:

Measure values

Numeric values
Abnormal 0
Ok 1
Unknown 2

Note:

By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate the current state of each temperature sensor. The graph of this measure however, represents the status of the temperature sensor using the numeric equivalents only i.e., 0 to 2.

Current temperature

Indicates the current temperature of the hardware component associated with this temperature sensor.

Celcius

Ideally, the value of this measure should be within admissible range. An abnormally high/low value could be a cause for concern.
