eG Monitoring
 

Measures reported by AppFabricHostTest

This test monitors the Microsoft AppFabric Caching and reports host-level performance metrics. The request serving ability and the size of the data of the primary cache server or the host cache is monitored and reported. Using this test, administrators are alerted to poor responsiveness (if any) of the primary cache so that corrective measures can be quickly initiated.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the target Microsoft AppFabric Caching server being monitored

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Avg_quorum_res Indicates the amount of time spent by write operations in replication. Secs  
Avg_secondary_res Indicates the average time spent to get response from all the secondary servers. Secs A low value is desired for this measure.
Cache_miss_percent Indicates the percentage of unsuccessful cache requests to the total number of requests since the start of the cache service. Percent  
Cache_miss Indicates the total number of unsuccessful cache requests since the start of the cache service. Number Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero. A sudden/gradual increase in the value of this measure indicates that the requests are not serviced from the cache.
Cache_miss_sec Indicates the total number of unsuccessful cache requests per second since start of cache service. Number  
Data_size Indicates the total size of cached data in the cache, not including cache overhead. MB  
Evicted_obj Indicates the number of evicted objects since the start of the cache service. Number  
Eviction_runs Indicates the number of eviction runs since the start of the cache service. Number  
Expired_obj Indicates the number of expired objects since the start of the cache service. Number  
Memory_evicted Indicates the amount of memory freed from cache since the start of the cache service. Number  
Primary_data Indicates the total size of primary cached data in the cache, not including cache overhead. MB  
Secondary_data Indicates the total size of secondary cached data in the cache, not including cache overhead. MB  
Failure_excep Indicates the number of exceptions that are being thrown by the server since start of cache service. Number  
Failure_excep_sec Indicates the number of exceptions per second that are being thrown by the server since start of cache service. Number  
Retry_excep Indicates the total number of retry operation exceptions since the start of the cache service. Number  
Retry_excep_sec Indicates the total number of retry operation exceptions per second since the start of the cache service. Number  
Client_req Indicates the total number of client requests, including all API calls. Number  
Client_req_sec Indicates the number of client requests per second, including all API calls. Number  
Get_misses Indicates the number of Get misses from all clients since the start of the cache service. Number  
Get_misses_sec Indicates the number of Get misses per second from all clients since the start of the cache service. Number  
Get_req Indicates the number of Get requests received from all clients since the service was started. Number  
Get_req_sec Indicates the number of Get requests received per second from all clients since the service was started. Number  
Get_lock_req Indicates the total number of GetAndLock requests since the start of the cache service. Number  
Get_lock_req_sec Indicates the total number of GetAndLock requests received per second since the start of the cache service. Number  
Suc_get_loc_req Indicates the number of GetAndLock requests that were successful since the start of cache service. Number A High value is desired for this measure.
Suc_get_loc_req_sec Indicates the number of GetandLock requests that were received successfully per second since the start of the cache service. Number  
Read_req Indicates the number of read requests (Bulk Get, Get and Enumeration) received from all clients since the start of the cache service. Number  
Read_req_sec Indicates the number of read requests (Bulk Get, Get and Enumeration) per second received from all clients since the start of the cache service. Number  
Write_operation Indicates the number of writes requests since the start of the cache service. Number  
Write_operation_sec Indicates the number of write requests per second since the start of the cache service. Number  
Req_served Indicates the number of request served and responses sent by the server since the start of the cache service. Number A high value is desired for this measure.
Req_served_sec Indicates the number of request served and responses sent by the server per second since the start of the cache service. Number  
Obj_count Indicates the total number of objects stored in the host. Number  
Obj_returned Indicates the number of objects returned by the client read requests. Number  
Obj_returned_sec Indicates the number of objects returned by the client read requests per second. Number  
Notif_deliver Indicates the number notifcations delivered to clients. Number  
Notif_deliver_sec Indicates the number notifcations delivered per second to clients. Number  
Notif_poll_req Indicates the total number of poll request from client since the start of the cache service. Number  
Notif_poll_req_sec Indicates the total number of poll request per second from client since the start of the cache service. Number
