Measures reported by ExcSRMailTest
Periodic workload monitoring is imperative to evaluate the processing ability of the Exchange 2010 server and to proactively detect potential overload conditions. By continuously monitoring the email traffic to and from the Exchange server, this test turns a spotlight on the workload of the Exchange server, helps detect overload conditions, and also points you to the source of the overload - mails sent/received by users in the intranet? Or mail traffic over the internet?
The measures made by this test are as follows:
| Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| Internal_recieved_number |
Indicates the number of mails received by the Exchange server from the intranet. |
Number |
In the event of an overload, you can compare the value of this measure with the value of the Internal_sent_number, External_recieved_number, and External_sent_number measures to determine what could have contributed to the overload - is it because of incoming or outgoing mail traffic? Is it because of the exchange of mails over the intranet or the internet?
To know the email IDs that received the emails, the number of emails that each ID received, and the total size of the emails to an ID, use the detailed diagnosis of this test. |
