Collect hw counters

I am running collect on a Niagara system and trying to get harware counter information, but all the counts are assigned to <Unknown>. For example I have run:
collect -p on -h +dcm/0,hi program
I get the routine timing information but all the d-cache misses are in <unknown>.
I have compiled using:
-xhwcprof -xdebugformat=dwarf -g -xO[23]
Any ideas?

The Niagara counters do not generate interrupts for those counters
that are on register zero (it's a HW problem, unfixable in SW).
The only counter that can be used for profiling on Niagara is
"insts" -- instructions executed -- the only counter on register one.

In logman, should All Instances include _Total?

Hello
If this question has already been asked and answered elsewhere, my apologies.
I want to collect IIS worker process perfmon data using logman. When I add counters in PerfMon, choosing All Instances gives all instances (each w3wp process for each application pool, plus _Total). When I try to get the same in "logman
create counter" using
-c "\w3svc_w3wp(*)\*"
All I get is _Total, none of the individual instances.
Through getting the wrong end of the stick about parent/instance#index (from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490956.aspx), I happened into trying
-c "\w3svc_w3wp(**)\*"
which gave the individual instances but not _Total. I've tried a combination of using (**) and (_Total), but that gave the individual instances only.
I'm sure I'm doing something simple wrong and would appreciate someone telling me what it is.
Thank you

Hello again
I've continued trying to collect program counters for all instances, not only _Total, and not only every individual instance bar _Total.
I thought that it was just Logman that didn't agree with my expectations, but I'm having the same problem with Data Collector Sets made in PerfMon. When running live in PerfMon, I'm collecting for all the instances, which translates as "*" when adding
the counters, but specifically names the instances when I look in
System Monitor Log for that Data Collector Set
Logman query for that Data Collector Set.
(Presumably this means that the application pool worker processes would not be picked up if the application pool recycles, thus changing the ID number at the start of the instance name. But that does not apply to processor instances.)
But when I look at the binary log file in PerfMon, I'm only seeing counters for instance "_Total".
So, it seems that the recorded counters are the same whether I use logman and specify instance "*", or whether I use PerfMon and create a new Data Collector Set from the current live counters. I only get results for _Total, not for individual instances.
I would appreciate guidance to documentation that explains that this is the expected behaviour, or an explanation of how to collect the counters for the individual instances other than in real time.
Please help. Thanks

SQL Server database save error

I am encountering an issue every few days or so whereby, for some reason, my metadata database LDF log file is growing to a very large size (> 5GB in size). This could be due to specific settings for my database, however I don’t believe I’m doing anything
unusual so it’s probably worth recording.
When the LDF grows to a large size, I start to see the following I/O error messages in the windows event viewer for the SQL database service:
2014-08-28 16:18:25:
SQL Server has encountered 1 occurrence(s) of I/O requests taking longer than 15 seconds to complete on file [C:\SCM\Databases\PPGallium_Metadata_New4_log.ldf] in database [PPGallium_Metadata_New4] (7). The OS file handle is 0x0000000000000A64.
The offset of the latest long I/O is: 0x000000fe4f3200
This is followed by further follow-on errors in saving data to the database (from Gallium database service log for same time):

Has anyone experienced any issues like this?
Thanks

Hi Ian,
According to your description, the error message indicates SQL Server I/O bottlenecks. The SQL Server I/O bottleneck can be caused by many reasons, for example, there is firmware issue or misconfiguration issue in I/O subsystem , or some other process on
your system is saturating the disks with I/O requests.
To troubleshoot this issue, I recommend the following steps.
1. Exclude SQL Server files from antivirus scan.
2. Do not place SQL Server FILES on compressed drives.
3. Distribute SQL Server data files and transaction log files across drives.
4. Collect perfmon counters to get more information about I/O operation.
For more details, please review this blog:
I/O requests taking longer than 15 seconds to complete on file.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang

DISK,VM,NETWORk,PROCESS COUNTER INFO

Hi,
1. For VM I am using the cpu_vminfo_t to collect the VM counters? The value
that I get for pages page in is 4605 (pages page in /lbolt_time). The values for pages paged out is 3881 again divided by lbolt time. Are these
values correct? What is the command to verify these values?
2. For Disk I am collecting the counters reads and writes , kilobytes read, kilobytes written from kstat_io_t. Is this the right structure to be used to collect the values? I am getting the disk reads as 213344 and disk writes as 0. Kilobytes read and written per sec are 0. I am using iostat
to check these values. But the values do not match. So please suggest me
if I am using the right structure to get the counter values.
3. For networks which is the structure to be used to get the packets in, packets out, bytes in, bytes out, routes, socket open. etc.
4. Again for process which is the structute to be used to get all the process counters?
Any help or ideas on this is welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Charulatha.

Retrieving Performance Metrics from Azure Redis Portal

We are evaluating our application performance on cloud. We are automating the process of running and collecting performance counters from the application (from web roles, sql azure database, redis cache).
We can get the metrics for Redis cache instance on the portal. But we want to retrieve the metrics from portal and use it for comparing the results between different tests run. What is the best way we can
achieve that?

Hi Harit,
Here is some background and an answer.
Redis is only available in the new preview Azure portal. The new portal uses a new underlying deployment mechanism called CSM. The libraries you mentioned do not support Redis. There is a new set of libraries (microsoft.azure.insights) that you have
to use. These libraries are in preview.
Please take a look at the SDK here:
https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Azure.Insights/ The documentation is here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn802153.aspx
I have a sample which shows how you can get the data for Redis.
https://github.com/rustd/RedisSamples/blob/master/CustomMonitoring/Program.cs
Please make sure when you enable diagnostics for your Cache, then you have provided a storage account as well. This is a new feature that we are rolling out where the diagnostic data will be stored in a storage account specified by the user.
Hopefully this answers your question.

Network device is not responding to SNMP

Hello All
We are monitoring our first network device (Cisco FW) SNMP V2.
We discovered it and were able to collect performance counters for 2 hours.
After that, only thing we can collect is ICMP response. Also it keeps switching between healthy and warning state.

Hi Helpful guy,
This problem occurs on some network devices in case that the maximum number (default 50) of OIDs that OM will query per batch is too high. You probably find a entry in the Cisco logs:
"incoming SNMP request (# bytes) from IP address
IP_ADDRESS and PORT
PORT_NUMBER Interface "inside" exceeds data buffer size, discarding the SNMP request"
This problem can be solved by creating a registry key:
location: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Operations Manager\3.0\Modules\Global\SNMP]
key type: DWORD value
key name: MaxOidsPerRequest
default: 50
Change the default value to one that suits your environment.
Hope this helps,
Regards Marthijn van Rheenen
Blog: Heading To The Cloud’s
I'm using OpsMgr 2012 R2. I started with MaxOidsPerRequest set to 30 and monitoring was going well for two ASA 5510s. I have raised the number to 40 and am waiting to see if there are any issues. It is a decimal value and I set it on both
management servers in the resource pool for network devices.

Is this REALLY the easiest/best way to do this?

I'm no SQL guru by any means, but I can get by. Here is some background.
I am running Perfmon Data Collector Sets to collect performance counters.
I am using Relog.exe to take the .blg files and pushing them into a database
I am attempting to write a query that will ultimately get the information out of the database and see if I can aggregate the data a bit as well. If the last part is better off doing in Excel (where this data will ultimately end up for charting), then I will
do that part there.
Here is the table layouts when you import the .blg files:
Table name: CounterData
Columns:
GUID
CounterID
RecordIndex
CounterDateTime
CounterValue
FirstValueA
FirstValueB
SecondValueA
SecondValueB
MultiCount
Table Name: CounterDetails
CounterID
MachineName
ObjectName
CounterName
CounterType
DefaultScale
InstanceName
InstanceIndex
ParentName
ParentObjectID
TimeBaseA
TimeBaseB
I need to pull multiple sets of data out of these tables, so I built the following query:
USE PDB
SELECT
CAST(LEFT(CounterDateTime, 16) as smalldatetime) AS CounterDateTime,
REPLACE(CounterDetails.MachineName,'\\','') AS ComputerName,
CounterDetails.ObjectName + ISNULL('(' + CounterDetails.InstanceName + ')','') + '\' + CounterDetails.CounterName AS [Counter],
CounterData.CounterValue
FROM CounterData
FULL OUTER JOIN CounterDetails ON CounterData.CounterID = CounterDetails.CounterID
FULL OUTER JOIN DisplayToID ON CounterData.GUID = DisplayToID.GUID
WHERE CounterDetails.ObjectName = 'Processor'
AND CounterDetails.CounterName = '% Processor Time'
AND CounterDetails.InstanceName = '_Total'
UNION
SELECT
CAST(LEFT(CounterDateTime, 16) as smalldatetime) AS CounterDateTime,
REPLACE(CounterDetails.MachineName,'\\','') AS ComputerName,
CounterDetails.ObjectName + ISNULL('(' + CounterDetails.InstanceName + ')','') + '\' + CounterDetails.CounterName AS [Counter],
CounterData.CounterValue
FROM CounterData
FULL OUTER JOIN CounterDetails ON CounterData.CounterID = CounterDetails.CounterID
FULL OUTER JOIN DisplayToID ON CounterData.GUID = DisplayToID.GUID
WHERE CounterDetails.ObjectName = 'Web Service'
AND CounterDetails.CounterName = 'Bytes Received/sec'
AND CounterDetails.InstanceName = 'AppName'
ORDER BY 1
Is this REALLY the best way to do this?
Also, trying to figure out how to build in data aggregation in 5 minute average blocks.
Any assistance appreciated!

Erland,
Thanks for your response.
The related items in the table are CounterID, in a nutshell, what I want to do is the following:
Get the data from the CounterDetails table that holds the MachineName, CounterName, CounterType and so forth.

What is good tool for Analyzing Windows Perfmon logs

I have SQL Server 2014 SSAS on dedicated server. I'm starting to collect Performance Counters with Perfmon.
What is good tool for analyzing results? I would like to see graphs about Memory usage etc.
Kenny_I

Have you tried the PAL tool. It is too good a tool for perfmon analysis.

Hello,
Sys.dm_os_performance counter will only show counters related to SQL server not Physical disk if you run below query in SQL server it will not return any value so no disk counter is present.You will have to see it using perfmon.
select * from sys.dm_os_performance_counters where counter_name like '%disk%'
This can also be done through power shell but I dont have experience with that.You can search net for power shell query to see Windows perfmon counters

Performance collection counters

Hi,
A customer has asked for the following and I am stuck when it gets to territory like Directory Services.
The customer wants ALL counters under each Object to be selected.
I am stumped how to do this for all counters at once like the few in the pic below. Perfmon allows ALL to be selected, but I can only select one at a time in SCOM (that I can see).
Thx,
John Bradshaw
============================================
Can we setup the following performance counters for Active Directory? We need to get it for the case of physicals versus virtual for domain controllers.
Performance Counters
\Process\*
\DirectoryServices(*)\*
\PhysicalDisk\*
\Processor(*)\*
\Memory\*
\System\*
\Server\*
\Network Interface(*)\*
\UDPv4\*
\TCPv4\*
\IPv4\*
I would like it to be 1 min intervals

Roger,
What would I put in at this point in the script from that link?
JB
-ComputerName
'$Target/Property[Type="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.Computer"]/PrincipalName$'
You just need to type
-ComputerName
'$Target/Property[Type="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.Computer"]/PrincipalName$'
When you add performance counter, the computer name is required and -computername is a variable which point the target machine computer name.

Service policy counters not working..

I have a service policy on a 6509 interface so I can see what the packets per second of a video stream coming out of a DVR (digital video recorder) is. This DVR has 16 security cameras attached and I'm concerned that when someone views all 16 cameras the video stream is going to be huge.
So I create a service policy to match an access list for all IP from the DVR. But no counters increment unless I add in some other match statement. I added in a match protocol telnet and the service policy counters started to work. I removed the match on telnet and the counters stopped. Telnet has nothing to do with the DVR. Here is the config of the class map, policy map and show commands: (By the way video is streaming through this interface continually during this excercise)
MATCHING ACCESS LIST ONLY:
class-map match-any DVR
match access-group 130
policy-map DVR-test
class DVR
ROC-6509-DU-A#sh access-list 130
Extended IP access list 130
10 permit ip host 164.72.2.125 any
ROC-6509-DU-A#sh policy-map int
GigabitEthernet2/5

If I remove the 'match protocol telnet' and clear the counters, no longer do the counters for the access-list 130 increment - put back in match telnet and they start to increment.

Is this a bug or do I not have my class map or policy map correct?

WMI Performance counters not shown in SCOM Performance view

Hi,
We're unable to see %CPU usage, avg cpu queue length and many other WMI counters on a Performance View for one of our servers.
- The agent is displayed as healthy.
- We are getting data from counters generated by script.
- WMI counters are shown as enabled.
- We're able to see the counters locally on server manager, on performance counters.
- we have run lodctr /R, without success.
- no alerts on the scom agent or server.
- no overrides for these counters exist.
So definitely it looks like the WMI infrastructure is working ok but somehow data is not being sent to the server. Any hints on debugging this issue?
Thanks in advance

Ops Manager, Ops DW, or both? If performance collection is ENABLED for this server, and it's a W2K8 box, and you can see the perf in perf monitor on the server, then you should look to see if other performance is missing. If there are no performance
counters being collected, then you can do a few things, but before doing that, do some spot checking.
Is this rule enabled? Did someone override disable it? If enabled, and no overrides, then create a view (my views or whatever that custom workspace is) targetting the generic class of "said" target for the collection rule. Do you see any
computers listed? How many computers are listed? Jot that down. Go to discovered inventory in the monitoring pane, and change scope to the targeted class for the collection rule. Count what is returned, do the number of servers returned
match?
If you have the same number of green healthy objects in both the custom view and the discovered inventory scope, then you are good, if there are a few missing, you need to troubleshoot those agents.
If you are missing all of them, you probably have a problem with your RMS/SQL, which means you have to start traces on SQL and or at the very least look at the ops manager event log on the rms.
So, back to the "missing a few" scenario. You could start to do logging, etc, but instead of that, reinstall the agent on one of the machines not showing up in both views. Wait a few hours. Check the views again, and keep an eye on the
ops manager event log on that sick agent. Increase the size of the log file, if you have too, so you don't over right events.
After a few hours if it's not showing up, you can either start down the path of enabling tracing on the agent (there are kbs on how to turn this on, and the logs are not hard to go through), or you can uninstall the agent. Run cleanmom on the box.
Reinstall the agent.
I would perform the repair, clean mom, before I troubleshoot the agent, but that's just me. Keep in mind, any data that is collected and or queued will be lost when you do the clean mom. But since you have no data as it is, no real loss.
While the agent is showing up in the console, and before you start down the previous steps, I would verify that you have events collected as well (another query) and stop a service on the box that is supposed to be monitored, see if it triggers and alert
and a state change. Also peek at the RMS ops manager event log, you might have some SQL problems.
Good luck.

No performance counters and other issues

The title is my main issue, but beating my head against a wall here. Anyone with enough patience to read through my issues below is a saint.
Following every guide out there, myself and our Linux admin have gone over in detail everything that needs to be done to monitor our RHEL 6 servers in SCOM, but alas, we are having issues.
First, we tried it on three different servers, all running RHEL 6.6. The servers appear as green and healthy in SCOM, and we get "some" alerts from them such as unauthorized login attempts. However, when we try to open a performance view,
there are no counters displayed on two of them. One of them displays all the counters you would expect, but none of them have any data collected, except for one lone three hour period from two weeks ago. Before and after that: nothing. That's my biggest confusion,
because for some odd reason, it managed to work for that time period, so what changed?
Next, I should mention that I have also had to flat out disable the unix/linux heartbeat monitor because when it's enabled, after about 10 minutes all 3 linux servers will go grey, and no alerts come in for them.
Digging through all of the posts here, I've come across multiple things to try that have worked for other people, but all with no luck. For starters, theres the whole port 1270 thing. There is no firewall on either the management server or the linux
servers, and checking for listeners shows the scom agent listening on port 1270 on the linux server. Should there be something listening on port 1270 on the Management server? Because if so, there isn't, and I cant find any posts that say how to make that
happen. I've attempted to run simple winrm commands from the management server to attempt to gather data from the linux servers, however, when running the command below:
winrm e "http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/SCX_Agent?__cimnamespace=root/scx" -r:"http://<server>:1270" -auth:basic -username:<user> -password:<pass> -encoding:utf-8
It fails with the following error:
    Message = The WinRM client cannot process the request. The authentication mechanism requested by the client is not supported by the server or unencrypted traffic is disabled in the service configu
ration. Verify the unencrypted traffic setting in the service configuration or specify one of the authentication mechanisms supported by the server. To use Kerberos, specify the computer name as the
remote destination. Also verify that the client computer and the destination computer are joined to a domain. To use Basic, specify the computer name as the remote destination, specify Basic authentic
ation and provide user name and password. Possible authentication mechanisms reported by server:
Anyone have any ideas why there are no performance counters, or why winrm requests fail? Is there some missing hidden step or configuration need on the linux end to make the winrm queries work?
Please help!

Steve,
I've never seen any alerts from SCOM in an event viewer log. If you're talking about errors about communication, there arent any coming in. By all accounts, it appears as if SCOM "thinks" it's working fine. As for the agent going "grey",
they only go grey if I have the heartbeat monitor enabled. Even when they're grey, I can still run tasks in the scom console against them to get top processes etc.
I've tried changing some of the winrm configs already to attempt successful connections, but with no luck. Here's the current output of winrm get winrm/config:

We started the trace on the linux server, and it does appear to be hitting it, but I can't really tell from the logs what exactly it's trying to do. Every 5 minutes it appears to be hitting the /var/log/secure file but im not sure what it's looking for.
Below is the log activity for the first 20 minutes or so after we began the log. From what I understand, the management server should be attempting to grab performance data every 5 minuts, but I don't think that's happening.

Windows 7 counters for Firefox

Hi Experts,
Please help with an issue regarding Firefox productivity in Win7.
I like to use lots of extensions and plug-ins for my FF, but some time ago I started to experience high CPU and memory resources usage for the browser according to the Task Manager. I have an old notebook with 2Gb RAM, which seems to be not enough to use plenty of extensions, especially with other applications running. Basically, there was nothing special (eg Adobe, Apple plug-ins, Adblock, Fire Gestures etc.) but I had to disable all of them according to recommendations on your official site to reduce memory consumption (Safe Mode state). It helped, but now I have only a bare browser which is not appropriate for me.
My question is how can I collect performance statistics based on add-ons configuration? I tried to use Process Explorer utility, which is very beautiful and gives some average values, but I want real numbers to compare (I found no logging option available). I think that Windows Performance Monitor would be useful, but there are lots of counters, and I don't know which of them have relation to Firefox. Could you please provide with basic (or maybe extended as well) counter configuration to track and log main resources used by the browser? That is how I want to test CPU and memory utilization to find out less "harmful" extensions.
Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
Yuriy

Hi Tylerdowner,
Thank you, but it only reads current data, not a collection for an hour eg. If you start Performance Monitor (Win+R, type ''perfmon'', hit Enter, go to Performance Monitor icon under the Monitoring Tools), you'll see what I mean. You get only main processor load as the default counter, and I'd like to customize it for Firefox and then save the report after some time of activity with specific settings.

Performance monitor reports and graphs don't show all the counters that were captured

I've run into an odd behavior of performance monitor that I haven't been able to clear up yet: after I run a data collector set, the resulting report only shows a partial list of the counters that I captured, and so does the graph of that report (but different
items).
For instance, I chose the following counters for the data collector set:
\PhysicalDisk(*)\% Idle Time
\PhysicalDisk(*)\Avg. Disk Queue Length
\PhysicalDisk(*)\Avg. Disk sec/Read
\PhysicalDisk(*)\Avg. Disk sec/Write
When the data collection ends, the report that gets displayed shows all those counters for _Total instance and C:, but then E: only shows % Idle Time and Avg. Disk Queue Length. That's it, the report ends there, even though I also have F: and V: drives on
this server.
If I choose to view the graph of this data collection, it only shows those four counters for the _Total instance.
It took me a while to realize that all the data is being captured, but it's just the display that is truncated. If I view the folder then open the report.html, it actually shows all the data. Same with the graphs. If I select to add counters and add
all the missing counters, they are displayed.
I have searched high and low but haven't been able to find more than one post at ServerFault where someone had a similar issue, but no real solution or cause was provided, so I was hoping that someone here might have an idea.
I also found a variety of articles about missing counters due to registry settings or because the counters needed to be reset, but that's a different issue that doesn't apply in my case. By the way, this is on a windows server 2012 R2 VM (file server).

Hi SomeAdmin,
The counter missing often caused by the related registry value is corrupted, please first refer the following related KB then perform a fix then monitor the issue again.
