QuerySurge Server Properties Reference (Versions: 12.0)

QuerySurge includes various global-level configuration options; these options as well as general instance information are available in the Server Properties page within the Global Administration Portal. The server Server Properties page contains read only references to configurable settings which can be altered in QuerySurge or on the server itself. 

To access the settings which can be modified directly in the QuerySurge portal, select the Server Configuration tree entry. 

Informational Values

  • Backup Directory: Location on the QuerySurge App Server machine where exported Scenarios are stored. Note that the Project export files are stored in the project_exports folder in the same parent folder.
  • Max MySQL Packet Limit: Maximum size of internal data transfer per packet to the QuerySurge MySQL Database.
  • MySQL Version: Installed version of the QuerySurge MySQL Database.
  • MySQL Port: Port that the QuerySurge MySQL Database listens on.
  • Group Concat. Max Length: Internal configuration of the GROUP_CONCAT function in the QuerySurge MySQL Database.
  • OS Name: Name of operating system installed on the QuerySurge Application Server
  • OS Version: Version of operating system installed on the QuerySurge Application Server
  • OS Architecture: Bit architecture (32 or 64 bit) of operating system installed on the QuerySurge Application Server
  • Java Version: Version of Java runtime packaged with QuerySurge Application Server
  • JVM Architecture: Bit architecture (32 or 64 bit) of Java runtime packaged with QuerySurge Application Server
  • Hostname: Internally resolved hostname of the QuerySurge Application Server
  • Max Heap Size: Configured Max Heap Size for the QuerySurge Application Server Java process (see instructions to configure on Linux and Windows)

Configuration Options

  • Idle Stats Monitor Ping Interval: interval at which the Statsmon service will measure and transmit performance metrics when no tests are executing (see articles on Disk Monitoring and Performance Report)
  • Active Stats Monitor Ping Interval: intervals at which the Statsmon service will measure and transmit performance metrics while a test is executing (see articles on Disk Monitoring and Performance Report)
  • Disk Space Warning Threshold: Percentages at which a warning message will be triggered for low disk space. This message will display inside QuerySurge and send email notifications if configured (see article on Disk Monitoring).
  • Disk Space Critical Threshold: Percentages at which a critical message will be triggered for low disk space. This message will display inside QuerySurge and send email notifications if configured (see article on Disk Monitoring).
  • Idle User Session Timeout: The amount in time, in minutes, before an idle user is logged out of a project area. A value of "0" will disable this timeout (see article on account/session security).
  • Idle Global Admin Session Timeout: The amount in time, in minutes, before an idle user is logged out of the Global Admin Portal. A value of "0" will disable this timeout (see article on account/session security).
  • Maximum Allowed Login Attempts: The number of invalid username/password attempts which are possible during a given time frame, before the account is locked (see article on account/session security).
  • Time period for Max Allowed Login Attempts: The time-period in which a user can exceed the maximum login attempts limit on the path to a lockout (in sec). This time-period starts at the first login attempt for that user (see article on account/session security).
  • Login Lockout Time Period: The time (in minutes) in which the user account will be locked once the login attempt threshold is reached (see article on account/session security).
  • Enable Clob Peeking (default: on): Turn the ability to peek CLOBs on or off completely, for all users. Disabling peeking avoids the potential for processing significant amounts of data and transferring it between QuerySurge and the browser (see article on CLOB data).
  • Peek Clob Length (default: 100 characters): Maximum number of characters to retrieve from each CLOB value when peeking. If the original value is shorter than this maximum, it is displayed or exported unchanged; if longer, it is truncated to this length with ellipses ("...") appended. Increasing this value will increase the amount of data processing/transfer when viewing/exporting results (see article on CLOB data).
  • Override Generated URLs (Default: off) Control flag to enable/disable overriding URLs generated in QuerySurge notifications. This is occasionally needed based on network configurations to ensure URLs generated are accessible.
  • Override Generated URLs Protocol: (Default: http) Protocol to use in generated URLs. If SSL is enabled in the QuerySurge environment use https. 
  • Override Generated URLs Hostname: Hostname/IP address which users utilize to access the QuerySurge application. 
  • Override Generated URLs Port: Port which users utilize to access the QuerySurge application. 
  • Data Staging Hostname/IP: Hostname/IP address of the QuerySurge Database (see article on configuring the Data Staging connection).
  • Data Staging Port:  Port of the QuerySurge Database (see article on configuring the Data Staging connection).

    Note: The QuerySurge Data Staging Hostname/IP & Port is utilized for all tutorial connections. Network connectivity between Agents and the QuerySurge database is required to utilize the tutorial datasets.
