Measures reported by WinSessionTest

This test reports various session-related statistics for a Windows server.

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Logon_rate Rate of logons to the server
Reqs/sec This measure reports the rate of all interactive, network, and service logons to a windows server.
The measure includes both successful and failed
logons.
Logon_errors Number of logons in the last measurement period that had errors Number This measure reports the number of failed logon attempts to the server during the last measurement period.  The number of failures can indicate whether password guessing programs are being used to
get into the server.
Current_sessions The number of sessions currently active in a server Number This measure is one of the indicators of current server activity.
Sessions_with_errors The number of sessions in the last measurement period that were closed to unexpected error conditions Number Sessions can be closed with errors if the session
duration reaches the autodisconnect timeout.
Sessions_forced_off The number of sessions in the last measurement period that have been forced to logoff Number This value indicates how many sessions were forced to
logoff due to logon time constraints.
Sessions_logged_off The number of sessions in the last measurement period that were terminated normally Number Compare the number of sessions logged off to the number of sessions forced off, sessions with errors, or those that timed out. Typically, the percentage of abnormally terminated sessions should be low.
Sessions_timed_out The number of sessions that have been closed in the last measurement period due to their idle time exceeding the AutoDisconnect parameter for the server Number The number of session timed out gives an indication of
whether the AutoDisconnect setting is helping to conserve server resources
