Creating labels

After you connect a host or service to a project, you can add monitoring labels to identify the monitoring sources that are used when you execute a schedule from HCL OneTest Server. You can also use labels in any test to collect resource monitoring usage data during a test run for a defined period of time.

Before you begin

You must have connected sources to your project in HCL OneTest Server. See Resource monitoring capabilities.

About this task

You must be a project owner to add labels to the resource monitoring sources in a project and you must be a team space owner to add labels in a team space.

Procedure

  1. Click a source that is available in your project, either in the Total Sources cards or in the All Types cards from the resource monitoring page.
  2. Click Plus sign you must click to add a label under the Labels column of a resource monitoring source to add a label.
  3. Enter a name for the label and press the Enter key.
    Note: You can add one label or multiple labels for the same resource monitoring source. A label can contain a maximum of 200 characters.
    Tip: You can create the same label for different sources that belong to the same logical group to monitor the whole group with only one label.

Results

The host source is identified by a label.

What to do next

You can use the created labels in tests to collect resource monitoring results or persistent usage data. See Controlling resource monitoring sources in a schedule.
