| Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| Status |
Indicates whether the configured service is available or not. |
Percent |
If the service exists on the target host and is currently running, then this measure will report the value 100. On the other hand, if the service exists but is not running, then this measure will report the value 0. If the service does not exist, then the test will report the value Unknown. |
| Cpu_util |
Indicates the percentage of CPU utilized by the process that corresponds to the configured SERVICENAME |
Percent |
A very high value could indicate that the service is consuming excessive CPU resources. |
| Memory_util |
For the process corresponding to the specified SERVICENAME, this value represents the ratio of the resident set size of the process to the physical memory of the host system, expressed as a percentage.
|
Percent |
A sudden increase in memory utilization for a process may be indicative of memory leaks in the application. |
| HandleCount |
Indicates the number of handles opened by the process mapped to the configured SERVICENAME. |
Number |
An increasing trend in this measure is indicative of a memory leak in the service. |
| ThreadCount |
Indicates the number of threads that are used by the process that corresponds to the configured SERVICENAME. |
Number |
|
| VirtualBytes |
Indicates the amount of virtual memory that is being used by the process that corresponds to the configured SERVICENAME. |
MB |
|
| DataBytes |
Indicates the rate at which the process mapped to the configured SERVICENAME is reading and writing bytes in I/O operations. |
Kbytes/Sec |
This value counts all I/O activity generated by a process and includes file, network and device I/Os. |
| DataOperations |
Indicates the rate at which the process corresponding to the specified SERVICENAME is issuing read and write data to file, network and device I/O operations. |
Operations/Sec |
|
| ReadBytes |
Indicates the rate at which the process that corresponds to the configured SERVICENAME is reading data from file, network and device I/O operations. |
Kbytes/Sec |
|
| WriteBytes |
Indicates the rate at which the process (that corresponds to the configured SERVICENAME) is writing data to file, network and device I/O operations. |
Kbytes/Sec |
|
| PageFaults |
Indicates the total rate at which page faults are occurring for the threads of the process that maps to the configured SERVICENAME. |
Faults/Sec |
A page fault occurs when a thread refers to a virtual memory page that is not in its working set in main memory. This may not cause the page to be fetched from disk if it is on the standby list and hence already in main memory, or if it is in use by another process with whom the page is shared. |
| WorkingSet |
Indicates the current size of the working set of the process that maps to the configured SERVICENAME. |
MB |
The Working Set is the set of memory pages touched recently by the threads in the process. If free memory in the computer is above a threshold, pages are left in the Working Set of a process even if they are not in use.
When free memory falls below a threshold, pages are trimmed from Working Sets. If they are needed they will then be soft-faulted back into the Working Set before leaving main memory.
By tracking the working set of a process over time, you can determine if the application has a memory leak or not. |
