Jibe Self Tests

Sources may support the ability to run a built-in self-test. The self-test can be scheduled periodically to test functionality and performance of the source to process actual (synthetic) transactions made against the storage provider.

Self-tests use native APIs to make changes to the provider directly and include file and folder create, rename and delete operations.

For general information on Jibe see Jibe Documentation.

Configuration

Self-tests need configuration information and credentials to connect to the storage service. (This information may have been provided through Access Anywhere when creating the provider but is not currently accessible to Jibe)

Configuration Options

  • self_test_enabled - default false
  • self_test_folder - default jibe_test
  • self_test_repeat_hours - default 24.0

Example

Create an “SMB” source.

{
    "endpoint": "https://example.com",
    "login": "adminuser@example.com",
    "password": "*****",
    "sources": [
        {
            "name" : "Provider Name",
            "share" : "ExampleShare",
            "smb_dir" : "",
            "smb_server" : "smb.example.com",
            "smb_username" : "smbuser",
            "smb_password" : "smbpass",
            "self_test_enabled" : true
        }
    ]
}
