Performance counters are not always removed when APM is disabled

On several occasions I've noticed that even after:
removing a server from the target group of all APM management packs
waiting until IISReset is required
doing the IISReset
still some .NET APPS performance counters linger on or maybe gets recreated when load (out of my control) hits the server.
Profiling the IIS process using Visual Studio I see no use of PerfMon64, so I looks like APM is disabled on the server, but why isn't the performance counter(s) gone?
Thanks

Michael,
The performance counters category ".NET Apps" is registered on the server at the moment of the APM agent installation (part of MMA agent). Later, the instances are created by the monitored applications. If no applications are monitored, then no
instances are registered inside the category but category itself isn't going away from the server while APM/MMA is still installed.
I think it's done to only care about instance creation from inside of the monitored app but not about the category registration from within the app (which requires more privileges...). Also, APM service can always monitor the existing category to wait for
the new instances and avoid checking for the category itself to re-register the PDH queries..
It's easy to kill this category even if MMA agent is installed but it might easily break the monitoring scenarios if some app will be monitored on this server again... (E.g. you can run "unlodctr" and point it to the appropriate counters dll or
ini file...). So, it's better to keep it as is.

  • Some Performance Counters are not displayed in PerfMon

    I have SQL Server 2014 installed in my machine. I need to monitor some performance counters like \SQLServer:Database Mirroring\Log Send Queue KB. When I open the Add Counter dialog of PerfMon, the counter is displayed in the list. But when I add the
    counter and click OK, the counter is not seen added to the list of counters to be monitored. Any one can tell me why this happens? The same issue is there for some other counters like Replication Dist.\Dist:Delivery Latency. My OS is Windows Server Standard

    Ok I understand, but you would need at least 2 instances of SQL. 
    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2464/configure-sql-server-database-mirroring-using-ssms/
    http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/715550/SQL-Server-Replication-Step-by-Step
    Its would be more easy for you, if you have server with these setups in your environment to check counters /or run your program there to test.

  • Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?

    Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?
    Depending on the system version, and Office Word version:
    - a pure URL link starting with http or even www sometimes works in PDF, either produced by Aperçu or Adobe, sometimes does not work;
    - other kind of links where the text under display is not a URL, never work!
    I like everything with Apple computers and software, except PDF generation. Output files are usually bigger in size, and no better quality, than under Windows. Furthermore, it is weird that something as common as hyperlinks does not work correctly!
    I related this question with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, but the problem is still there with Mac OS Lion.
    This problem seems to have been around for years, without any proper solution from Apple and/or Adobe! To me, this is very embarrassing!

    Greetings NoNameGiven,
    If I understand the problem correctly (I’m not sure I do) you would prefer ‘iii’ to be read as “eye eye eye” rather than “three”? The alt text property is the only way that I know of to make this happen. Hope this helps.

  • SSAS performance counters do not appear in Internet Explorer

    I created a few SSAS memory related performance counters (eg MSAS 2008:Memory\Memory Limit Low KB, \MSAS 2008:Memory\Memory Limit High KB etc) to monitor memory and saved it as .html (as I have done previously).
    When I open this .html file in IE 11, these performance counters do not get loaded.
    My machine details are as follows
    OS: Windows 8 (64 Bit)
    SQL Server 2008R2 (64 Bit)
    IE (i believe) is also 64 bit. For reference my IE 11's version is 11.0.9600.17126IS. 
    Previously these used to work and now only the SSAS counters do not seem to load. 
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Gautham,
    According to your description, you created a few SSAS memory related performance counters and save it as .html, and then open this file in IE 11, the issue is that these performance counters do not get loaded, right?
    In your scenario, you said that you IE is also 64 bit, are you sure about it? Normally, we run IE 32 bit. On 64-bit versions of Windows, there is a separate link in the Start Menu to Internet Explorer (64 bit). If there is no mention of 64-bit in the About
    IE screen, the 32-bit version is opening.  Here is a similar issue with yours, and the reason is related to the version of IE, please refer to the link below to see the detail information.

    Hope this helps.

    Must be serious because you have stated the problem 4 times now.
    Here are a number of things that you can try and maybe one of them will help.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
    You can also try going to the App Store, find an app that needs an update, tap on the app icon to bring up the description page, then tap on install that way, rather than using the Update option from the app updates screen.
    And ... You can always install the updates in iTunes on your computer and then sync them to the iPad.

  • Our illustrator files are not showing up when uploaded to creative cloud.

    Our illustrator files are not showing up when uploaded to creative cloud. They are visible sometimes when we turn on and off the layers. Please help thanks.

    If you feel that you have enough evidence of the symptoms, use the feedback at http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html to let Apple know. The "feedback type" of "bug report" has been removed from the iTunes feedback, so I suggest you use use "Other".
    You will not receive any feedback from them, but they do read the submissions and act upon them. It can take a while, and more than one iTunes update before the issue is resolved.

  • I am trying to connect a Macbook Pro to a projector for a Powerpoint presentation. When I use a VGA cable, the color of the projected images are not good. When I use a USB cable, the projected image includes the presenter notes on my computer screen?

    To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
    Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
    But however you do choose to link the two machines...
    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    and select the Library that you moved.  That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
    Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
    Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.

  • The names of my contacts are not showing up when I receive text messages

    The names of my contacts are not showing up when I receive text messages, only the number is showing up. How can I fix this?

    This is a HUGE iOS bug.. Following a tip from another poster, I was able to fix the issue (temporarily).
    This worked for me on Verizon.
    I dialed *228 on my Verizon phone. I pressed "1" to activate it over the air. I then went into task manager and killed all the running apps.. Waited a few minutes.
    The next text I got displayed the number correctly!.. Until I rebooted, that is.
    PLEASE, call Apple and speak with a senior engineer on this. They can't fix it if they don't know it's a problem! (800) MY-IPHONE

  • Reversal documents are not being represented when 0PY_PP_C3 is being loade

    We use the 0HR_PY_PP_2 and 0HR_PY_PP_1 infosources to load the 0PY_PP_C2 and 0PY_PP_C1 ODSs. Then 0PY_PP_C1 updates the 0PY_PP_C3 ODS.
    Routines in the update rules include corresponding data from 0PY_PP_C2 during the update of 0PY_PP_C3. If there is no matching data in 2, then the corresponding records in 1 do not go into 3 Our process chain first loads 2, after it activates, it then loads 1, then updates 3.
    There are 5 reversal documents are in 0PY_PP_C2.
    The Update rules between 0PY_PP_C1 and 0PY_PP_C3 refer to the Posting Documents ODS: 0PY_PP_C2. 
    The issue is that the reversal documents are not being represented when 0PY_PP_C3 is being loaded.

    Hi,
    The simple solution is to debug the code written in the routine, as you mentioned that you already have some data in PP_C2 then check if that data is properly getting read in routine.
    After that check the condition based on which you are skipping records of PP_C1 and not loading into PP_C3. Is your condition perfectly working fine?
    Put a break point and check how the data is flowing.
