Is DFS Monitoring possible in Solarwinds?

uniswtc

Hi,

We are using Solarwinds Orion with NPM, NCM & SAM.

Whether DFS monitoring is possible through Solarwinds?

Thanks,

Naren.

Absolutely the template is called "Distributed File System (DFS)" and its on page 217 of the SAM Template Guide linked to below

Edit: Here's a screenshot of at least most of what it does.

Its worth noting however that it doesn't provide any backlog statistics and there are a couple of monitors which report on things such as "Staging Space in Use" but you will need to modify them to include the GUID which is present in perfmon.

garyblack,

Have you seen sprintgeek posting with PowerShell scripts to do just that - DFS Backlog

I am currently playing with them trying to get them to function, but they're a start.

Yes I have seen this template, I'm in the process of playing with it myself.
