gd_servermetrics

Performs a number of tests upon a list of Globus resources.

Syntax

testresults = gd_servermetrics(servers)

testresults = gd_servermetrics(servers,filename)

Description

testresults = gd_servermetrics(servers) will perform a suite of diagnostic tests on the Globus servers specified by servers. Where servers is a structure defining Grid resources which has the following mandatory fields:

name	Name of the Globus server.
directory	Name of the directory on the server in which the tests should be performed. This may be empty if no directory is specified.

The output structure testresults contains the following fields:

name	Name of the Globus server.
directory	Name of the directory on the server.
authentication	The elapsed time in milliseconds required for authentication, or -1 if failed.
jobsubmission	The elapsed time in milliseconds required for job submission, or -1 if failed.
filetransfer	The elapsed time in milliseconds required for file transfer, or -1 if failed.

results = gd_servermetrics(servers) as above where the results of the tests are output to the file specified by the string filename.

Example

The following example will run the diagnostic tests upon the servers 'server1.domain.com' and 'server2.domain.com'. The results of the tests will be output to the structure testresults, and to the file 'metrics.dat' in the current directory on the local machine.

servers(1).name = 'server1.domain.com';

servers(1).directory = '/home/<USER>/';

servers(2).name = 'server2.domain.com';

servers(2).directory = '';

testresults = gd_servermetrics(servers,'metrics.dat')

disp(testresults(1))

testresults =

1x2 struct array with fields:

name
