DX Application Performance Management

Hi All,

We have SharePoint Application, we have installed .Net agent, configured SharePoint Extension and also Perfmon Collecter. We have a requirement to report "current anonymous users" metrics, which are provided by IIS. Can anyone help me how to get these metrics?

Thanks,

Chandrasekhar.

Hi Davis,

I am able to see those metrics when I open perfmon on the server. 

The filter we have is " introscope.agent.perfmon.metric.filterPattern=|Processor|*|*,|.NET Data Provider*|*|*,|.NET CLR*|{osprocessname}|*,|.NET CLR Data|*|*,|Process|{osprocessname}|*,|ASP.NET*|* ", which comes default. Please let me know if I need to include anything to it to get the metrics. 

Regards,

Chandrasekhar.

You need to add the counter to the end of the 'filterPattern'. I will make an assumption you want the counters from 'ASP.NET Applications'. '|ASP.NET*|*' is not specific enough to get the counters from 'ASP.NET Applications'.

If you look at those counters, they are based upon the number of applications running under IIS. Therefore, you will see '_Total' and '<all instances>' as objects, so you will need to specify the applications you want or all. Next, you must start your filter with a pipe symbol like the default ones provided:

|ASP.NET Applications|*|Anonymous Requests,|ASP.NET Applications|*|Anonymous Requests/Sec

The above will get the all applications, including '_Total'. If you only wanted the totals, you need to replace the asterisk with '_Total'.

Hi Haruhiko,

Just to confirm, we can consider "Current Anonymous Users" as per our requirement. So the pattern entry would be "

|ASP.NET Applications|*|CurrentAnonymousUsers

Right?

Sorry, I got that object wrong. It should be:

|Web Service|*|Current Anonymous Users

Hi Haruhiko,

I tried with the above filter it did not work. But, when I open them in Perfmon counter on application server I am able to see those. 

Thanks,

Chandrasekhar.

Please paste in your current filterPattern and screenshot the metrics from the PerfMonCollector agent.

Have you tried changing the logging level of the agent to see if you can catch a warning or error?

Hi Varnima,

Please let us know if Haruhiko's answer has helped you.

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Hal, Haruhiko,

Was a bit confused between, perfmon filter pattern entry in SPMonitor and .Net agent. I did enable it in .Net agent, and we got the metrics. Thank you for your help.

Hi Haruhiko,

Perfmon service on Application server is not repeating any data, when I checked the logs it has a message "Reset perfmon monitor criteria due to new w3wp process ID detected:". Is there any way Perfmon automatically identifies the new w3wp Process ID and keep reporting data continuously?

Regards,

Chandrasekhar. 

Dear Chandrasekhar.:

Glad to hear you got it implemented. If someone else was doing the same thing, is there anything special that they would have to do?

Thanks
