What I was hoping to accomplish is to be able to add PerfMon counters that are not available in the Performance Counter History report. Can SQL Sentry be customized to monitor/log additional PerfMon counters? If so, how?
IBM San switch interfaces. From Solarwinds interface details page go to Performance Monitor. One of the default counters shows Interface Status. I understand Red and Yellow status. However I see a few interfaces that have a Grey status. I suspect this means "administratively down", but it could be "unplugged". I don't…
CPU alerts are a yawner. Grab the CPULoad, check it against a threshold (maybe even a per-node custom threshold, as explained here: TIPS & TRICKS: Stop The Madness: How to set alert thresholds per-device), cut the alert, move on, right? Here's the problem: If you are working with sophisticated Operations or server staff,…
Grabbed the "Microsoft Message Queuing Performance" template from thwack and assigned it to a few nodes. Howevever, after letting it run for the last 24 hours - It doesnt' seem to be returning any statistic data, only shows up / down. Which isn't very useful. Fell like I'm missing something obvious here... any help would…
I would like to be able to use custom pollers with PerfMon. I do not believe it is currently possible.
Hi there, Was wondering what is the best way to add this perfmon counter as a custom metric in the DPA tool. Thanks in advance!
I am curious if anyone else is taking a close look at their Logical Disk Performance/Disk Bottlenecks in their environment. One metric we track as a vital statistic on windows is Logical Disk Transfers/sec, with the general idea that consistent high water marks are indications of SAN layout or design problems. We ran into…
We have run into an issue where the action of polling some counters creates CPU load on servers which is then returned in the CPU polling results. This can be considered artificial since the returned value is based on Orion's own polling, not processes normally running on the server. This can be avoided by adding a delay…
Is there a notion of template variables? For example, lets say I have an APM template with 10 PerfMon Monitors. All these perfmon monitors will track a particular instance throughout the template. However, I want to montor say 10 of these instances. This means without something like this I would have to manually enter the…
I'm a newbie to iPmonitor so if this is a DUH! question, please be patient. I have Windows 2008R2 servers running on VSphere that is managed by a hosting provider. I want to pull the perfmon VM Memory and VM CPU counters in to iPmonitor. Does anyone have any advice on how I can accomplish this?
