Will log all page files found along with their current and peak usage.

Save totals to variables

Specify the variables you want the current and peak usage of the total page file usage on the machine saved to.

Save specific page file usage to variables

Specify the page file and the variables you want the current and peak usage of the total page file usage on the machine saved to. If you are unsure of the exact name of the page file, you can run this action with the "Log page file usage" option set and it will report the names of the page files found.

Fail if no page files found

The action will fail if no page files are found on the machine

The other "fail if..." options allow you to fail the action dependent on the current or peak usage of the total page file usage is above or below a certain threshold. The above screenshot shows that the action will be set to fail if the total peak page file usage is greater than or equal to 90% - an indicator that the page file probably isn't large enough.
