Jobs Stats

To see this panel, click on the Show Advanced Display link at the bottom right corner of the Run/View PeerSync window. The Enable Advanced Display option must be checked in order for this link to be active. The Jobs Stats display is the top panel and contains runtime statistics for all the Jobs configured within the Profile. Clicking on a Job will update the bottom Advanced Run/View PeerSync panel. Click on the All Jobs entry to display all the Job statistics, cumulatively, in the bottom panel.

#

Represents the automatically assigned Job number for each Job. An icon represents the state of the Job (Green, Yellow, or Red):

Job Name

Lists the unique name for each Job.

Source

Displays the path to the source folder.

Target

Displays the target path.

Last Scan (Status: Duration)

Displays the date and time of the last scan along with a description of the scan state and duration. For example: 11/17/2011 4:28:31 PM (Completed Successfully: 00:06:05)

In Sync

Displays whether each Job is in sync. In order for the In Sync state to be set to Yes, the following criteria needs to be satisfied:

1.There should be zero Failed Events

2.The status starts should be Normal (i.e. source/target not disconnected and/or not in a Blackout etc.)

3.The Last Scan (Status: Duration) for the Job has Completed Successfully and does not contain messages

4.There are zero active events for the Job

5.The In Queue stats for the Job starts with [Processing: 0] ==> [Event File: DNE and contains [In Queue: 0

6.The Scan Needed column value is set to No

7.No errors are in the PSError log for the profile.

Examples of possible In Sync states:

•Yes

•Yes (As of Last Scan)

•Yes (Job Stopped - Manually)

•Yes (Job Stopped - Manually; As of Last Scan)

•No (Failed Events: 1)

•No (See Status for Details)

•No (Scan Running)

•No (Scan Pending)

•No (See Last Scan for Details)

•No (Last Scan has Messages)

•No (Active Events)

•No (Items In Queue)

•No (Scan Needed)

•No (Scan Running; Items In Queue)

•No (Possible global failures - PSErrors: 1)

In addition to these states, there are also Yes and No states that reference the FSA and MPC. These states indicate that the File System Analyzer has been used to scan both source and target, the results of which are then compared and an Excel-based diff report is produced. For example:

•Yes (Validated by FSA and MPC)

•Yes (Validated by FSA and MPC with Checksums)

•No (FSA and MPC Failed)

Trending

Displays information regarding the trending state of the In Sync column (Up, Down, or Flat). If the number of events within a cycle is 500 or less, the Trending status will be Flat. If the number of events increased by 1,000 or more within a cycle, then the Trending status will be Up. If the number of events decreased by 1,000 or more within a cycle, then the Trending status will be Down.

Notes:

1.The column will show N/A if you have not reached the cycle yet and/or there is no difference in events within the last cycle.

2.The TrendingUpValue and TrendingDnValue items are event differences per second for Processing and In Queue event items from the In Queue stats.

3.To adjust the default values based on desired results (i.e. you may be stuck in the Flat state too often if you are looking for a difference in changes), modify the TrendingDnValue and TrendingUpValue values in the PSDEF.cfg file.

[Misc Options]

TrendingCycle=60

TrendingUpValue=10

TrendingDnValue=10

TrendingAlwaysShowUpDnValue=0

Next Scan (Run in)

Count down to the next scan for scheduled or interval scans.

Xfer Rate

Determines the transfer rate in megabits per second for each Job. Takes into account the Event Averages rate and Total Transferred and Total Saved bytes (bottom right corner of Run/View PeerSync) to determine the transfer rate for each Job. The more events and the larger the average file size calculated in the Event Averages the more accurate the transfer rate will be.  This also shows a cumulative transfer rate for all Jobs.

Bytes

Displays the total number of bytes that were transferred for the specific Job or all the Jobs.

Events

Shows the total number of events detected for the Job or all the Jobs as well as number of active events currently being processed.

Event Averages

Displays the average number of events that occurred per minute. The average size of the events are also noted.

In Queue: Scan

The number of files in queue that are generated by a scan.

In Queue: RT

The number of files in queue that are real-time events.

In Queue

The total number of files in queue. The queue represents the backlock of real-time events for each job. When the queue is empty the In Sync column is set to Yes.

Updated

Counter indicating the total number of files that were updated and their size in bytes.

Added

Counter indicating the total number of files that were added and their size in bytes.

Deleted

Counter indicating the total number of files that were deleted and their size in bytes.

Excluded

Counter indicating the total number of files that were excluded and their size in bytes.

Messages

Counter indicating the total number of messages.

Failed Events

The number of failed events for each Job or all Jobs.

Real-Time

Displays the state of Real-Time detection (On or Off).

Interval Scans

Information when the next interval scan is to occur.

Daily Timer Scans

Information when the next scheduled scan is to occur.

Status

Shows the status of each Job or all Jobs.

Scan Needed

Lets you know if a scan is needed (Yes) or not (No) after a connection failure.

Log File Path

Displays the location of the log file. Used in pop-up menu.

Validate Now - Runs a validation for the selected job(s) or all jobs. This will launch the File System Analyzer to log all files in both the source and target for each selected job, then compares the results and creates an Excel-based diff report.

Validate Now With Checksums - Runs a checksum-based validation for the selected job(s) or all jobs. This will launch the File System Analyzer to checksum all files in both the source and target for each selected job, then compares the results and creates an Excel-based diff report.

Stop Job: JobName

Stop the selected Job without stopping or interrupting any other potentially running Jobs in the Profile.

View Log File

View the log file for the selected Job.

View PSError Log File

View the PSError log file for the profile.

Open Source Folder: Path

Opens the source folder in a Windows Explorer window.

Open Target Folder: Path

Historical Data

This panel displays a subset of the Job Stats table (Xfer Rate, Bytes and Event Averages) in an hourly, daily, weekly, and total format for all the Jobs or only the selected Job. Furthermore, it displays a Running Event Count, a Running Event Average and Peak Count, and a Running Job Count. Right-click and select Save As to export the list into a CSV file format (PSHistoricalData.csv).

Job Stats and Control

This tab is available from the Advanced Run/View PeerSync panel. It shows the Job Control Bar which allows every Job to be stopped, started, or restarted individually.

This tab can also be seen in the PeerSync Status Display panel under the Job Stats and Control tab.

FSA Validation

Lists key statistics gathered by the File System Analyzer for the source and target of each job in the current run. Statistics include the number of included files and bytes, excluded files and bytes, as well as an In Sync column that is updated based on just file counts.

MPC Validation

Lists key comparison statistics for each job in the current run. Statistics include the number of unique files discovered, the number of files that are currently in-sync, the number of missing files, and the number of files that are mismatched based on timestamps, size, and checksum. The In Sync column is based on the results of the full comparison of file names, sizes, last modified times, and optional checksums.
