Question by Anurag S. · Mar 14, 2014 at 10:11 AM ·

Monitor Windows Perf Counters using dyanTrace

Hi,

I would like to monitor the following windows perf. counters using dynaTrace. Is there any way we can do it in dynaTrace out of the box.

\LogicalDisk(_Total)\% Disk Time
\PhysicalDisk(_Total)\% Disk Time
\LogicalDisk(_Total)\Avg. Disk Bytes/Read
\PhysicalDisk(_Total)\Avg. Disk Bytes/Read
\LogicalDisk(E:)\Avg. Disk Bytes/Write
\PhysicalDisk(_Total)\Avg. Disk Bytes/Write
\Memory\Available MBytes
\Memory\Pool Paged Bytes
\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time
\Paging File(\??\C:\pagefile.sys)\% Usage

I did not see these parameters available under the measures.

 

Regards,

Anurag

Hi there

The Username that the Collector Service was started with, is also the user that makes the request to the server where you want to get the Windows Perfmon information from.  Thus, the Collector you select must be a Windows one, and must be started with the Username and Password that has access to the server where you want to get the data from.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I tried to follow the document and configure the windows perf. counters but I am getting an error "Access Denied" , when I am trying to run the following command from the server to be monitored :

sc \\<server> query RemoteRegistry

The other command sc \\<server> query RpcSs is running fine .. Could you please suggest how to resolve this issue.

Which version of dynaTrace do you run?

We have a set of "Host Performance" measures that provide some of these values out-of-the-box, e.g: Disk I/O Bytes Read/Written per Second or Memory Available. There are also Java & .NET based Measures for Memory Pool Size information - you can find them under Server-Side Performance -> Agent based Measures -> Java Virtual Machine

For all other Windows Performance Counters you can setup a Windows Performance Monitor as described here How To Retrieve Performance Metrics with Windows Performance Monitor
